We collect rent that students owe you.

AI that chases unpaid student rent for student accommodation providers, with a law firm behind it. It emails, texts and calls students and parents in their own language, agrees payment plans within your limits, and keeps going after the academic year has ended.

10% + VAT of what we collect. No sign-up or monthly fee.

Upload your unpaid invoices, with any signed agreement or terms and conditions behind them.

This page is for student accommodation providers. We collect for any business, in any industry, including loans: if you can prove the debt, the debtor has not disputed it and it is R500 or more, we can collect it. See everything we collect

Built for student accommodation providers

Who owes you

Self-funded students and the parents who signed for them, behind on rent or charges, including students who have left.

What to upload

A rent arrears report, the signed leases and any surety signed by a parent.

Why it gets left

Locking a student out is rarely possible mid-term, and once the year ends they scatter across the country.

How it works for student accommodation providers

UploadA rent arrears report, the signed leases and any surety signed by a parent. Messy is fine.
SortAI turns the pile into tidy accounts, each document matched to the right one. We only ask you when something is missing.
ContactStudents and parents hear from us by email, SMS and phone, in their own language, at the time they are most likely to pay. Every reply is answered in minutes.
Get paidPayment plans and settlements are agreed within your limits. Anything outside them comes to you. You see every step as it happens.

Your unpaid invoices and anything that proves them: signed agreements, terms and conditions, statements, orders, delivery notes, emails. Messy is fine.

What it looks like

An example with made-up names and amounts.

A student left in November owing R9,800. Their mother, who signed the lease, answers a call and pays R3,300 a month for three months.

Two ways to collect. Two plain prices.

The same prices for every industry. Let our law firm collect for a success fee, or have us chase in your own business’s name for a flat monthly fee, and students and parents pay you directly.

Questions student accommodation providers ask

What if a student says the bill is wrong?

That is a dispute. Chasing on that account stops straight away, and you are asked what to do, with the student’s own words.

Whose name do my debtors see?

When our law firm collects, every email, SMS and call, and the letter of demand, goes out in the name of Taylor Torrington Inc, acting for your business. When you collect in your own name, emails, SMS and calls go out in your business's name, and the law firm is not mentioned. Thwipe AI is the name on the messages we send to you. Every message and call to a debtor says that it is automated.

What does it cost when your law firm collects?

10% + VAT of the money we collect, or 5% + VAT if you send us 500 accounts or more. No sign-up fee and no monthly fee. Pricing in full

What does it cost to collect in my own name?

A monthly fee plus VAT, paid by card through PayFast: R650 for 10, R1,450 for 25, R3,900 for 100 or R8,500 for 400 accounts at a time. We take nothing from what you collect. You can change or cancel the plan at any time. How chasing in your own name works
