Student accommodation applications & room allocation
Student accommodation: applications to keys without the spreadsheet. Rooms allocated, rent collected.
Applications by email, allocations in spreadsheets and rent chased. We build application and allocation systems for student accommodation.
Looking for student accommodation management software?
Student housing has intakes, applications, preferences and rent. We build systems that handle it from application to move-out.
Wollopit builds portals, listing tools, interactive maps and websites for student accommodation providers around how your business actually runs. We connect the property platforms you already use, replace the bits holding you back and look after the lot on our own servers, so your team can get back to deals and clients.

06How we work
The process
Some people dip their toe in. We turn up in a rebreather.
We get properly below the surface of your student accommodation provider: the systems, the busy days and the jobs everyone hates. Then we fix the bits that matter most first.
- 01
Think
We spend time with the people doing the work, see where the hours go and work out what's actually slowing you down.
- 02
Archi-tech
We plan it before writing code: your data, customers, payments, the tools you keep, hosting and cost.
- 03
Build
Real engineering, shown to you early and often. Usually the most painful bit first, so you get a win quickly.
- 04
Look after
We host it, maintain it and keep improving it. When something breaks you call the people who built it.
07Questions
FAQ
Things student accommodation providers ask us.
Something else on your mind? Ring 0423 011 252 and ask the people who'd build it.
Can students choose roommates?
Yes. Roommate preferences can be captured and considered in allocation.
How much does it cost?
It depends on what you need, so we quote up front once we understand your student accommodation provider. No surprise invoices, no lock-in and you own what we build.
Can it work with our existing property software?
Usually, yes. We connect to the platforms you rely on and build what they can't do on top. If something should go we'll explain why before anything changes.
Can clients log in and see their own information?
Yes. Owners, tenants, buyers or investors can each get their own secure portal with the documents, updates and numbers that matter to them.
Who looks after it once it's built?
We do. We host it on our own managed servers and keep it updated and secure. When you need something you ring the people who built it.
We already have systems. Can you upgrade them instead of starting again?
Usually, yes. Most student accommodation providers we work with keep what's working and upgrade the rest in stages. We move your data across, connect the old and new while we switch and retire the old system only when the new one is proven.
