The sharing economy just got a new player – HotSpotMe. The app is being called the “AirBnB for internet hotspots” and makes it easy for users to make money by sharing their internet connection while at the same time providing convenient Wi-Fi to people worldwide. It’s available to download for free on Google Play.

While the app is useful to just about anybody, those who live in certain areas have the potential to generate a good stream of passive income. If you live near public places with no public Wi-Fi, or near cafes and bars, imagine how many hundreds of people could potentially use your hotspot each week? Especially in areas visited by international tourists who can’t use mobile data, HotSpotMe provides a flexible, convenient solution to access Wi-Fi all over the world, from the USA to Singapore and many other countries.

The app is super simple to use for those looking to connect rather than host. You simply open up the app and you’ll see a list of all available HotSpotMe hosts in range. Just click and connect!

If you’re planning to use your home Wi-Fi router as a hotspot, you can register the router on the website at www.HotSpotMe.io. The service also lets you use your mobile device as a hotspot using either your home Wi-Fi or mobile data connection. If you’re using the latter, make sure you have enough data to spare!

HotSpotMe is available to download for free on Google Play.
