For PS4 and console cafés
PS4 gaming café software that protects a cheap fleet's margin
Per-console timers, per-player couch pricing, controllers as add-ons and a monthly P&L · because a paid-off fleet's edge only counts if the numbers show it.
A timer on every console
Each PS4 gets a recorded start, a live countdown and a running cost. FIFA turns to the next group on time because the clock, not the operator, says so.
Per-player pricing on one screen
Two on a couch price differently from one, and four on FIFA differently again. Player-count rates are in the ladder, so the shared-screen business model is priced, not improvised.
Extra controllers as add-ons
The third and fourth controller are revenue. Accessory add-ons land on the session and appear on the same bill as the time.
Rates that fit an older fleet
A PS4 hour prices below a PS5 hour on the same floor · each station type carries its own ladder, so a mixed fleet earns what each generation is worth.
GST bills and a clean register
Every session and snack closes into an itemised, GST-ready invoice with the payment method recorded, shareable to WhatsApp.
What the paid-off fleet returns
A PS4 floor's edge is hardware that owes you nothing. The P&L sets revenue against running costs, so you can see the margin that edge actually buys.
The PS4 café is a margin business, run it like one
A PS4 fleet bought years ago · or second-hand yesterday · has one advantage no PS5 floor can match: it is cheap capital earning hourly money. The discipline that protects that margin is knowing your numbers: what each console earned, what the floor cost to run, and what was left. RESPAWNA closes every month into a real P&L · income by stream, expenses by type, profit after both · so the cheap-fleet edge shows up as a figure, not a feeling.
Shared screens are the whole model
Nobody comes to a console café alone. Per-player-count rates price the couch honestly · one player, two, four on FIFA night · and accessory add-ons put the extra controllers on the bill. Group checkout settles a party across several consoles on one invoice, and open tabs merge by dragging one onto another.
Honest about what software can't do
No software can lock or control a PS4 · Sony gives third-party apps no path to the screen, ours included. What software can do is time every session precisely, price every configuration correctly and bill it cleanly · and on the PCs beside the consoles, RESPAWNA's Windows agent does lock the machine when time runs out.
Frequently asked questions
Does RESPAWNA support PS4 cafés?expand_more
Yes. Each console is a station with its own timer, interval-ladder rates and per-player-count pricing; controllers ride as add-ons; and every session closes into a GST-ready invoice.
Can I charge per player on a shared console?expand_more
Yes. Rates scope by player count, so two players on one PS4 price differently from one, and a four-player FIFA couch prices differently again.
Can PS4s and PS5s share one floor at different rates?expand_more
Yes. Each station type carries its own rate ladder, so the older consoles price below the new ones on the same screen and the same bill.
Can software lock a PS4 between sessions?expand_more
No · and no vendor's software can, because consoles give third-party apps no control of the screen. RESPAWNA times and bills console sessions precisely from the counter; its self-locking agent is for the Windows PCs on the same floor.
