Lock every console on your floor, whatever the brand. GameBiller locks the TV rather than the console: a small app on each Android TV or Google TV covers the screen whenever its station is not running, and uncovers it the moment staff press Start. The console needs nothing installed, so PS5, PS4, Xbox, Nintendo Switch and retro consoles are all covered the same way. It is the same feature sold as PlayStation Lock, included with GameBiller Premium at no extra charge.
PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch or a retro console: anything that plays on the TV is locked, because the lock sits on the screen.
No account, firmware change or software on the console. Only the free GameBiller TV Lock app goes on the TV.
Start uncovers the screen. Done covers it again, and so does a stop timer set on the station once it runs out.
On the full lock, a small timer in the bottom right corner shows the time played, matching the station card.
Add the TV in GameBiller, choose its station and type the 6-digit code on the TV with the remote.
Losing the connection never stops a game in progress or opens an idle screen. The TV holds its last instruction until GameBiller is reachable again.
Gaming PCs: use PC Lock, a Windows agent where gamers sign in and prepaid hours count down. Consoles on a TV (PS5, Xbox, Nintendo Switch): use console lock, which covers the TV screen until the station starts. Snooker and pool table lights: use Smart Plug Integration, which switches a Wi-Fi plug with Start and Done, and never use a plug to cut power to a console or PC. Most mixed floors use PC Lock for the PCs and console lock for the TVs, all from one GameBiller account.
Console lock software stops customers playing on a console between paid sessions. GameBiller does it by covering the TV screen whenever the console’s station is not running, so there is no picture until staff press Start, and the screen is covered again when they press Done.
Yes. The lock runs on the TV, not the console, so it works the same way for Xbox, Nintendo Switch, PS5, PS4 and any other console connected to the TV.
No. Only the free GameBiller TV Lock app is installed, on the TV. The console stays exactly as it is.
The TV in front of each console needs to run Android TV or Google TV, because that is where the lock app lives. A Samsung or LG smart TV cannot take the app, and a Fire TV needs a one-time setup from a PC before the full lock works, so check your TVs with support before you buy.
The screen is covered when staff press Done, or soon after a stop timer set on the station runs out. The console keeps running behind the cover, so Start brings the game straight back for the next session.
Use PC Lock for Windows gaming PCs, where gamers sign in and use prepaid hours. Use console lock for consoles on a TV. Both are included with GameBiller Premium and work side by side in one account.
