Sherwood Plus Deployer Fees Are Now Zero

Effective today, deployer fees on Sherwood Plus are zero. The new No Fee Program removes connect fees entirely for deployers who onboard existing Wi-Fi into Sherwood Plus.

A quick refresher on what Sherwood Plus does: it turns the Wi-Fi a business already owns into a monetized asset. Carrier traffic offloads onto that Wi-Fi, and the venue earns for every gigabyte it carries — without new hardware, new towers, or new builds.

What today's change means is simple math. Onboarding now has no upfront cost, so deployers keep more of every dollar their network earns from day one. The first byte of offload traffic is already profitable.

Why now? Because fee friction was the biggest reason venues hesitated. A coffee shop owner who runs great Wi-Fi doesn't need a pitch about protocol economics — they need to know it costs nothing to start and pays them for what they already provide. Now it does.

Who qualifies: any deployer onboarding Wi-Fi through Sherwood Plus. Coffee shops, offices, clinics, hotels, and small businesses of every kind — the No Fee Program applies across venue types, with no volume minimum to meet.

None of this changes how earnings settle. Everything still runs on the Robinhood Chain, priced in SHW, with coverage proofs verifiable on-chain. The chain's transparency means deployers can see exactly what they're owed, exactly when it lands.

If you own Wi-Fi that's underused, the math just got simpler. Turn it on, connect it to the network, and keep what it earns.
