Modern town-centre radios without the range limits.
Schemelink DigiTalk is our own in-house walkie talkie software, developed by us for real-world town-centre communication. It gives Pubwatch, Shopwatch, Townwatch and BID teams instant Push-to-Talk communication anywhere there is an internet connection.
Because DigiTalk runs over Wi-Fi and mobile data, there is no OFCOM spectrum licence to arrange, no repeater to install and far less setup hassle. If you want a dedicated handset rather than relying on staff using their own phones, our DigiTalk bundles give you purpose-built 4G/Wi-Fi radios, software access and full Schemelink access in one package.
Coverage is driven by internet access rather than local RF range, making DigiTalk suitable for town centres, multi-site groups and users who move between venues.
There is no radio spectrum licence to sort out and no repeater hardware to buy, site and maintain, which helps keep rollout simpler and avoids extra cost and messing about.
Use a proper walkie talkie-style handset, or run DigiTalk on Apple and Android phones to turn a smartphone into a business Push-to-Talk device.
We are not reselling a generic third-party app. DigiTalk is developed in-house, which gives you a clearer roadmap and tighter integration with the wider Schemelink platform.
Designed for Pubwatch, Shopwatch, Townwatch and BID communication.
Traditional schemes often depend on licensed radio infrastructure, repeaters, fixed coverage planning and specialist setup. DigiTalk takes a simpler route: internet-based Push-to-Talk with a familiar radio workflow, dedicated handset options and the wider Schemelink system included, without the need for OFCOM spectrum licensing or repeater installation.
A simpler route to wide-area walkie talkie communication.
Radio over IP and Push-to-Talk over Cellular systems use data networks instead of relying solely on traditional radio coverage. That means you can communicate across a building, a town or further afield, provided users have Wi-Fi or mobile data available. In many real-world sites, Wi-Fi and modern cellular coverage will also give more reliable indoor performance than basic handheld VHF or UHF setups, especially where buildings are difficult for traditional radio signals.
Wi-Fi connected bundles
Best where venues already have dependable Wi-Fi. Good for fixed sites, indoor spaces and organisations that want the lowest monthly cost, with very strong in-building coverage where Wi-Fi is already solid.
SIM + Wi-Fi connected bundles
Best for mobile teams, street patrols, roaming users and town-centre schemes that need flexibility between venues and outdoor coverage. Cellular networks are also generally engineered for better building penetration than simple handheld radio coverage.
Phone app also available
If you do not need a dedicated radio, DigiTalk can also run on Apple and Android phones, turning a smartphone into a walkie talkie.
Simple packages for dedicated DigiTalk handsets.
The pricing below is designed to be easy to understand: one upfront equipment cost, then a clear monthly cost per handset. For larger fleets, bespoke pricing is available.
Wi-Fi Connected
Dedicated handsets using your existing Wi-Fi coverage, with DigiTalk software and full Schemelink access included.
SIM + Wi-Fi Connected
Dedicated handsets with mobile data flexibility as well as Wi-Fi, suited to teams who move around town centres and between venues.
For large numbers of handsets, multi-site schemes, or a blended mix of dedicated radios and smartphone app users, please enquire for a tailored quote.
A package that is easier to buy and easier to explain to members.
The message to venues and members is simple: dedicated DigiTalk radios, internet-based Push-to-Talk, software developed by Schemelink, and full Schemelink access included.
How the package stacks up.
The established market for town-centre radio schemes often leans on traditional digital radio systems, repeaters, antenna installs and supplier-managed infrastructure. DigiTalk offers a more software-led route with dedicated PoC/RoIP-style hardware and a lower barrier to rollout.
Easier to understand
Choose Wi-Fi only or SIM + Wi-Fi, then scale by handset count. Much easier than installing repeaters, licensing and signal planning.
Made for small-screen users
For walkie talkie deployments, users can be taken straight into DigiTalk rather than the wider dashboard experience, which suits compact dedicated devices.
Own product story
Schemelink develops DigiTalk in-house, which is a stronger proposition than just reselling someone else's PoC platform.
