    As I know FLEX700 doesn't support Purple WiFi

    But I found document of Purple WiFi, It seems Nebula as AP controller can be acceptable.

    That maybe a way.

    Hi @greg

    USG FLEX 200/500/700 + Hotspot Management service license can integrate with Socifi.

    You can refer the guide,

    The main use case is for wifi marking/Ads: ( https://www.socifi.com/features/wifi-marketing )

    • Socifi as external captive portal (easy and quick to customize the portal page)
    • Can setup dynamic media contents once guest visit portal page
    • Can mange different content for multiple USG FLEX
    • Can support click-to-go or social account login (facebook, twitter, Google, IG …)
    • With report of counts of logins, click of Ads

    I'm very early bird since 2017. So the price of my Socifi subscription plan is $90/year, 1000 logins/month.

    But current plan detail and pricing you need to contact Socifi. I think you can try to negotiate the price, even the trial period versus the default 7 day free trial.

    http://www.socifi.com/get-started/wi-fi-marketing-and-monetization

    For configuration you can refer the guide, although the screenshot is for an outdate Zyxel UAG model.

    But most of the steps is same on ZyWALL USG/USG FLEX.

    Support in USG FLEX on premise mode. Not support on cloud nebula mode.

    All the configuration take place on USG FLEX local GUI.
