Bring the whole village online, and let it pay for itself.
The problem
Nobody in the community can get online without a long trip to town. There is no grid power and nobody to run a network. Yet plenty of people would pay a few kina for a day of internet — to sell, to study, to call family.
What changes
One solar-powered kiosk with a Starlink dish and community Wi-Fi, run through the Konekt app by a local agent who sells vouchers for cash or through BSP Pay. People buy an hour, a day, a week or a month. Every sale is recorded, and the agent and the owner earn a share — so the kiosk pays its own way. Buy it outright, or hire it with a 25% deposit and pay the rest from what it sells.

What you get
- Power that never needs the grid — solar panels and a battery bank for 24-hour operation
- Internet from the sky — a Starlink dish that reaches places no cable ever will
- Wi-Fi that opens with a voucher — a day, a week or 28 days, bought in the app or from the agent
- A local agent, trained — selling vouchers, taking cash top-ups and earning a share
- Vouchers that travel — a part-used bundle keeps working at any BM hotspot
- Support after the install — and the option of a fully managed service
Can't find K100,000 up front? Pay it from the internet it sells.
Put down a 25% deposit — K25,000 — and the kiosk goes in. From then on, 40% of every voucher used at the kiosk goes toward the balance, taken automatically as the money flows, until the remaining K75,000 is paid. A quiet month costs you less; a busy month gets you there sooner. When the last kina is paid, the kiosk is yours.
- 1Pay the K25,000 deposit by BSP Pay or bank transfer
- 2We deliver, install, train your agent and switch it on
- 340% of every voucher goes to the balance, 15% to your agent, and the rest pays for the Starlink plan and support
- 4Balance paid — the kiosk is yours, and you start earning 60% of every voucher. No premium, no interest: K100,000 in total
What the hire includes
- The whole kiosk — solar, Starlink and community Wi-Fi, delivered and installed
- The Starlink plan — held and paid by Blockchain Melanesia for the term, so there is nothing for you to manage
- Support and repairs — for the whole hire term
- Agent training and Konekt set-up — the same as an outright purchase
During the hire each voucher used at the kiosk splits 40% to your balance, 15% to the agent and 45% to Blockchain Melanesia, which pays the Starlink plan and support. Once it is paid off, you earn 60%.
Open to any organisation with a signatory — a ward, church, landowner company, school or business — plus one named Konekt agent. The kiosk stays Blockchain Melanesia's until the final payment, and the terms are set out in a short hire agreement. If sales stop, we pause the service rather than remove the kiosk.
Will a kiosk pay for itself in your village?
Put in how many vouchers you expect to sell a day. The voucher price is today's real figure; change it if you like. The calculator shows what you earn, what the agent and Blockchain Melanesia receive, and how long the kiosk takes to pay back. There are no running costs for you: BM's share pays the Starlink plan, support and payments.
How the sums work
- Monthly sales = vouchers a day × price × 30.
- Owner's share = 60% of monthly sales once the kiosk is yours, paid weekly into your BM Wallet.
- Agent's share = 15% of monthly sales.
- Blockchain Melanesia = 25%, which pays for the Starlink plan, support and payments — so you have no running costs.
- Payback (buying) = kiosk price ÷ the owner's share each month.
- On hire = 40% of sales goes to the balance each month (15% to the agent, 45% to BM); you own the kiosk once K75,000 is paid, and earn the 60% from then on.
Real sites vary with the season, school terms and how many phones are in the village. Treat the result as a conversation starter, and ask us what the live sites are seeing.

Common questions
Can we hire instead of buying?
Yes. Pay a 25% deposit (K25,000) and 40% of voucher sales goes toward the remaining K75,000 automatically until it is paid. You then own the kiosk, having paid K100,000 in total — no premium and no interest. Details are in the Hire a kiosk section above.
What happens if sales are slow?
You pay less that month, because the payment is a share of sales rather than a fixed amount. If sales stop altogether we pause the service rather than remove the kiosk, and talk to you about what is wrong at the site.
Who owns the kiosk?
Whoever buys it — a community, a church, a landowner company or a business. On hire, it stays Blockchain Melanesia's until the final payment, then it is yours.
What does an owner earn?
Once the kiosk is yours (bought outright, or the hire paid off) you earn 60% of every Konekt voucher used at it. The local agent earns 15%, and Blockchain Melanesia keeps 25%, which pays for the Starlink plan, support and payments. Earnings are paid every week into your BM Wallet after BM staff check the week's figures; withdraw to your bank any time through BM Pay.
How do people pay for internet?
From K2 for an hour to K60 for a month — a Day Pass is K5 — bought in the Konekt app with a BM wallet or BSP Pay, or in cash from the local agent.
What does the agent earn?
Agents buy vouchers at 15% below the customer price and keep the difference on every cash sale. At a kiosk that is hired or owned, they also earn 15% of every voucher bought online in the Konekt app and used at their kiosk, paid weekly into their BM Wallet. All of it is recorded in the Konekt app so both sides can see it.
How many people can use it?
It is built for a whole community: everyone with a voucher connects, and each voucher carries its own time and data allowance.
Two communities are online today
Tabubil Hospital in Western Province and Kennedy in the National Capital District have been live since September 2026, running exactly this kiosk. Your village would be next.
