Yes, that is exactly the desire.

Im hearing something similar to "when I don't pay my bill" direct customer
to portal allowing them to rectify that themself rather than support staff.

The kindest experience ive had with hat is spectrum in my area and charter
communications. Would that be what you are after ?

We are a combination fiber and fixed wireless ISP with around 20k

Management is wanting to develop something along the lines of a captive
portal for suspended accounts such that those customers are forced to a
portal that allows them to make payment and get reactivated.

This is a common thing for a cafe wifi hotspot or something, but has
anyone here attempted to do it at this kind of scale who would be willing
to share their experiences? If someone has successfully done this, I would
love to pick your brain a bit to understand how you accomplished it.

Thanks much.
