Defensible IP
The integration between the access controller and the payment terminal is patent-secured — not just trademarked, not just a brand. That gives licensees a defensible position in their market.
Invest in the unstaffed economy.
WaveGate is a patent-secured access-and-payment platform with a clear path to global deployment. We're talking to investors, channel partners and territory licensees now.
Why WaveGate
A real product, in a real market, with real IP.
Three things make WaveGate stand out from a typical hardware play.
Proven Payment Rail
Powered by Nayax, a global cashless payments platform already deployed across tens of thousands of unattended sites worldwide. No payments infrastructure to invent from scratch.
Multi-Vertical Demand
Not a single-niche product. Saunas, gyms, studios, short-stay rentals, day spas, VIP rooms, public toilets, workshops — all benefit from the same hardware with different price-points.
The Opportunity
Operators have already chosen to go unattended. The hardware just needs to catch up.
Across every market WaveGate is targeting, the shift to unstaffed operations is already happening. Short-stay hosts have moved to lockboxes. 24/7 gyms have moved to keycards. Day spas, saunas and studios are quietly building self-serve booking flows on top of fragile patchworks of consumer-grade hardware and third-party apps.
What's missing is a purpose-built piece of hardware that handles both the payment and the access in one transaction — securely, repeatably, and with a payment rail customers already trust.
WaveGate is that hardware. Combined with a patent that makes it hard to replicate, and a payments partner that brings global infrastructure, the result is a product line with a clear path from early deployments to international rollout.
Note: commercial terms, deployment volumes, pricing structure and territory pipeline are shared on request, under NDA, with qualifying parties.
Pathways
How you can come on board.
WaveGate is open to several types of partner. The right pathway depends on what you bring — capital, distribution, deployment muscle or all three.

Direct Investment
Equity participation in the WaveGate growth story — IP rights, hardware revenue and recurring transaction share. Suitable for sophisticated investors comfortable with early-stage hardware-plus-platform plays.
