ISP Website with Coverage Checker Cost in Dublin (2026)

The verdict in three sentences

For an internet service provider in Brazzaville, the website must qualify eligibility before any sales call, otherwise teams waste their days on pointless technical visits. The core is scoped on a Growth package at 1,200,000 to 2,000,000 FCFA, and the coverage checker is priced on the market at 1,500,000 to 3,000,000 FCFA, for a complete project delivered in 8 to 12 weeks. In Dublin, the same scope costs 30,000 to 70,000 EUR, because it relies on the Eircode address database and heavier GDPR requirements.

Address, map or GPS: choosing the right eligibility method

In Dublin, every premises has a seven-character Eircode, and an address-based eligibility check is the norm. In Brazzaville, most business premises have no standardised address: an office is described by its district, its avenue and a landmark. Copying a European form therefore produces a high error rate. The method has to fit the ground.

The combination that works in Brazzaville: a map pin with optional geolocation, matched against the fibre and 4G coverage polygons supplied by the network team. The result shown is clear: fibre eligible, fixed 4G only, or technical survey required within 72 hours.

2026 budget: Brazzaville, Kolonell and Dublin

The "market" figures are 2026 estimates observed on comparable projects, separate from Kolonell's rates.

At Kolonell, the offers website falls under the Growth package at 1,200,000 to 2,000,000 FCFA (1,830 to 3,050 EUR). The coverage checker, sign-up and payment together form a simple custom application, priced at 2.5 M to 4 M FCFA (3,810 to 6,100 EUR) depending on the number of products and the integration with your customer management tool. Maintenance is added at 35,000, 75,000 or 120,000 FCFA per month.

Online sign-up: what to ask for, and how to store it

A business plan in Brazzaville usually requires the RCCM trade register number, the NIU tax ID, the manager's ID and sometimes an access map. The form must accept photos taken on a phone, automatically compressed under 1 MB, because many managers sign up from their mobile. Documents are stored encrypted, accessible only from the back office, and deleted after a defined period, for example 24 months after the contract ends.

The installation fee, often 25,000 to 100,000 FCFA for an SME plan, is paid through MTN MoMo or Airtel Money, the two dominant wallets in Congo. The complete file then reaches the technical team with eligibility confirmed, documents checked and the deposit collected. This "ready to install" file cuts activation time from 10 to 15 days to 5 to 7 days, an order of magnitude seen when qualification happens upstream.

In Dublin, the same journey must comply with GDPR under the oversight of the Data Protection Commission, with an impact assessment if ID documents are collected, and with ComReg rules on contract information. This legal work explains part of the price gap.

Mini case study

Gildas, marketing director of a hypothetical fibre and 4G ISP in Brazzaville, receives 120 business requests a month by phone. About 35% turn out to be ineligible after a technical visit costed internally at 15,000 FCFA, meaning 42 wasted visits and 630,000 FCFA lost every month.

With a map-based coverage checker, he expects to avoid 70% of these visits: 441,000 FCFA saved a month (about 670 EUR). His project includes a Growth website at 1,800,000 FCFA and an eligibility and sign-up module at 3,000,000 FCFA, or 4,800,000 FCFA (7,320 EUR). Payback comes in about 11 months, not counting sales closed in the evening and at weekends, when the switchboard is closed.

FAQ

Do we need an address database to launch a coverage checker?

Not in Brazzaville: a map pin is enough if the network team supplies its coverage zones in KML or GeoJSON. A monthly update of these zones usually takes less than 2 hours.

How long does it take to go live?

Allow 8 to 12 weeks, including 2 to 3 weeks to collect and clean the coverage data. The offers site can open from week 5, with the coverage checker following.

Can we collect installation fees online?

Yes, via MTN MoMo or Airtel Money, with automatic payment confirmation. Transaction fees run around 1 to 2% depending on the merchant contract negotiated.

What happens if the address is on the edge of coverage?

The checker shows "technical survey required" and creates a request for the field team, with a commitment to reply within 72 hours. On a mature network, these cases account for 10 to 20% of requests.

Why does the same project cost 30,000 to 70,000 EUR in Dublin?

Day rates there often exceed 600 EUR, and the project includes the Eircode database licence, a GDPR assessment and accessibility testing. The functional scope remains comparable.
