PC Gaming Cafe Software with Real Station Control

If PCs stay unlocked, you lose money. CafeNex PC gaming cafe software pairs a cloud dashboard with a lightweight Windows Station Agent that locks seats, unlocks paid play, shows session HUD, and updates itself when you publish a new release.

Lock. Unlock. Update. Repeat.

Browser-only tools stop at invoices. CafeNex pairs a Windows agent so unpaid seats stay locked — and Super Admin OTA keeps every PC on the same build.

Deep dive

What the product actually does

01

Station Agent: the missing piece in most “billing apps”

Many tools only run in the browser. CafeNex ships a Windows agent that pairs once per PC via code, heartbeats to your cafe tenant, and enforces desired lock state from the floor dashboard.

  • Pair with cafe URL + pairing code from Settings → Stations
  • Lock when idle or after checkout; unlock when session starts
  • Player HUD with remaining time
  • Library scan for installed games
  • OTA installer when Super Admin publishes a software release

LAN / esports floors

Multi-PC floors need consistent state. CafeNex keeps station cards live with sessions, so staff see which rigs are free, playing, or locked without walking the room.

03

Update every PC without a USB stick

Publish Cafenex-Station-Agent-Setup.exe from Super Admin → Software releases. Older agents receive agent_update on heartbeat and install when locked (or mandatory). New cafes install the same latest Setup once.

Straight answers

Look for cloud billing plus a native Windows agent for lock/unlock. CafeNex includes both, with OTA agent updates for multi-PC venues.
