1. What is a Zon@t In-Store Radio System?

The Zon@t In-store Radio System is a revolutionary product which gives you total control of your in-store music and advertising. The system is updated regularly through your existing internet connection, and is fully controlled by you through your web browser. This is done through the online music manager, which has state of the art technology enabling you to control, manage, and select your music to play when you want it to. Managing your music and advertising can be done from anywhere at any time through the music manager.

2. How does it work?

Once your Zon@t system is installed on your premises, log into the online music manager and begin managing your music and advertising from there. The system itself constantly checks with our servers for any new music, and sends any new changes directly to your Zon@t system. Once you have selected and scheduled your playlists and/or advertising, the system will update itself within a matter of moments, and your playlists will play at the time you have specified.
