Free Facebook Wi-Fi

Facebook Wi-Fi lets customers check in to participating businesses on Facebook for free Wi-Fi access. When people check in to your Page, you can share offers and other announcements with them.



Using Facebook Wi-Fi


To use Facebook Wi-Fi:
  1. Connect to the business’s wireless network.
  2. Launch your web browser (ex: Firefox).
  3. Your browser will open automatically to the business’s Facebook Wi-Fi Page. From here, you can check in to the business to access Facebook Wi-Fi.
Please keep in mind if you've opted in to automatic check-ins you still need to launch your web browser before using Facebook Wi-Fi, otherwise some apps might not work.
