Vouchers & PINs Overview
Overview
Vouchers and PINs are two ways to sell prepaid internet in bulk — you generate a batch of codes once and hand them out (or print them as cards) for customers to use. They solve different jobs, and the difference is the key thing to understand:
| Voucher | PIN (Recharge PIN) | |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | A ready-to-use access account — its own username/password (or a single code). | A recharge code — like a scratch card. |
| Who uses it | A new user logs in with it directly (typically a hotspot captive portal). | An existing subscriber redeems it to top up their own account. |
| Effect | Creates/activates a standalone account tied to a package. | Applies a package (plan / top-up / booster) to the subscriber who redeems it. |
| After use | Becomes an active account with its own profile. | Marked used, recording which subscriber redeemed it and when. |
In short: a voucher is the account; a PIN recharges an existing account.
Both are created in series — a batch that shares one auto-generated series number (e.g. 250001), a package, and a validity. You generate however many you need at once, then optionally print them as cards to distribute.
Who Can Use This Feature
ISPs and resellers who sell prepaid access — hotspot operators, retail counters, and anyone distributing recharge cards.

Important Notes
- For resellers, generating a batch debits the site balance by the package price × quantity — you can't create more than your balance allows.
- Both vouchers and PINs carry a package — that's what the customer gets when they use the code.
- Valid Till on a series is the deadline to use the codes; the package's own expiry then governs the service once activated.
