We are accustomed to the phrase ‘Pay as you Go’ because it was made popular by the mobile phone industry. Instead of having a contract, you pay for the service as you need it, or paying for the service as you go along. So it wont come as much of a surprise that a pay as you go Kiosk, is an internet kiosk that is both coin operated as well as being able to accept payment by credit or debit cards, to pay for access to the internet via the Public Access Terminal or kiosk.How a Pay as you Go Internet Kiosks works
The Internet kiosk or terminal is just like a home computer with all the usual software that the generally public are used to when they are browsing the Internet.
The customer would have to make a payment, either with coins or a debit or credit card and the payment would enable Internet access of the terminal. Payment could also be made using tokens or by a voucher code being presented to the user. A voucher might be made available by a customer making a purchase at a coffee shop for instance.
The fee is usually per hour or minute, payable in advance. The kiosk gives a warning when the user is down to their last 3 minutes of credit. This gives kiosk users the opportunity to complete what they are doing, or to top up their credit. When the credit time is up, the kiosk simply logs them out ready for the next user.
