Will the MyShopManager App work Internationally?
- Julianne Golemon
The MyShopManager App can be a great way to keep in touch and see how things are going in your shop while you are “on the go” and we understand that sometimes this may mean that you are outside of the country.
Our App is coded to only work with US based connections and will not work with international internet connections. This means it could work under a couple of different situations but it is not guaranteed to.
The two ways you could access it would be through your Resort/Hotel’s WiFi or by utilizing a VPN.
VPN stands for "Virtual Private Network" and will allow you to establish a protected network connection when using public networks.
First, if you are staying at a Resort/Hotel that is part of a chain or management group that is U.S. based or has U.S. locations then their WiFi may actually be a U.S. supplied WiFi connection. It is always worth asking to see if they may be providing U.S. supplied WiFi; if they are then you should be able to use their WiFi to access the App as normal.
If the place you are staying does not have a U.S. supplied WiFi connection then you would need to use a VPN program to use the App. A VPN will allow you to create a protected connection that is coded for the U.S. through an international internet connection.
