For student residences in South Africa

From application to move-out, one system for your residence.

ResiCore replaces the spreadsheets, paper forms and WhatsApp groups: students apply on their phones, rooms are allocated fairly, leases are signed online and every change is on record.

Everything a residence runs on

One place for students, building managers, finance and the residence office. Switch on only the parts you need. See all features.

  • Apply from a phone

    Students register with the residence's own link, upload documents and follow every step on a small Android phone.

  • Review in one place

    Applications, documents and NSFAS status side by side, with a checklist and previous and next buttons.

  • Fair room allocation

    A saved plan ranks students the same way for everyone: priority needs, returning students, then a one-time fair draw.

  • Leases signed online

    Leases from your own template, initialled and signed on the phone, countersigned in one click.

  • Payments and statements

    Hosted checkout for fees, rent runs by month, NSFAS kept on its own account, receipts for every payment.

  • Life in residence

    Check-in bookings, room inventories, maintenance with photos, incidents, visitors and announcements.

  • Room changes

    Students ask to move or swap; managers approve, and the lease and rent follow the student.

  • Start mid-year

    Bring in buildings, rooms and current residents from your own spreadsheet. Bad rows are listed, good rows import.

How it works

  1. Set up

    Your buildings, room types, rates and academic year, or import them from a spreadsheet.

  2. Open applications

    Share your sign-up link. Students apply and upload documents; you review.

  3. Allocate and sign

    Run the fair plan, send offers, and leases go out for signing on the phone.

  4. Run the year

    Check-ins, payments, maintenance and room changes, with every change kept in the history.

Safe with students' information

Residences hold ID numbers, funding details and personal reports. ResiCore is built to protect them.

  • Each residence's data is kept apart in the database itself, not only in the app.
  • Built for POPIA: privacy notices, consent records, download-my-data and deletion requests.
  • Staff sign in with two-step verification; sensitive changes ask for the password again.
  • ID numbers and sensitive reports are encrypted; uploads are virus scanned and kept private.
  • No card details ever touch ResiCore: payments go through the payment provider's own page.
  • Every important change is written to an audit log that can't be edited.
