Unitify

A Home section your customers open every day

Short answer

Unitify for banks is an embedded home section for banking apps. Building managers already run their HOAs, condominiums and owners' associations in Unitify, so their news, requests and votes reach residents inside the bank's app. Residents pay through the bank's acquiring into the building's account. The bank chooses the format: a module in its own app, an API, or its products inside the manager's workspace.

Most banking apps can pay a utility bill once a month. Unitify brings the rest of home life into your app: building news, requests, owner votes, guest access and the building's money, with payments running on your own rails.

Why does a bank's Home section stay empty?

A bank sees the payment. It does not see the building. The water shutdown notice, the plumber's visit, the owners' vote and the report on where the money went all come from the building's manager, and they live in chats, calls and paper. A bank cannot draw those moments itself. Unitify is the system where the manager creates them, so they can appear in your app.

What does a bank get from Unitify?

Eight things in the bank's own product line. Each comes with what we would measure in a pilot. None of them is a promised result.

  1. 1

    Daily reasons to open your app

    News with push, request status, votes, guest passes, bookings, meter readings and the building's report. The building's manager creates them, so your team does not.

    Measured in the pilot: sessions per resident per month.

  2. 2

    Building accounts at your bank

    In Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Armenia the law ties a building to its own bank account. The manager who runs the building in Unitify is the person who takes that account to a bank.

    Measured in the pilot: buildings that open an account with you.

  3. 3

    Long-term balances

    Capital-repair and reserve money sits in a bank for years. Residents see the balance and owners vote on spending it in the app, so the money stays visible and the account stays put.

    Measured in the pilot: balances on building accounts.

  4. 4

    Utility payments on your acquiring

    The resident sees the bill for their own apartment and pays by card. The payment runs through your acquiring and lands on the account of the building or its manager at your bank.

    Measured in the pilot: share of the buildings' payments that go through your bank.

  5. 5

    Services residents order at home

    Repairs and services are ordered and paid in the app. It is also a place where your own products can sit, such as insurance or instalments.

    Measured in the pilot: a hypothesis, tested market by market.

  6. 6

    An AI concierge in your chat

    It answers residents day and night about their building, bills and requests, and takes requests and meter readings. A person approves actions; every answer is logged.

    Measured in the pilot: share of resident questions closed without an operator.

  7. 7

    Smart building in the same section

    Intercom, cameras, barriers, couriers' QR access and EV chargers, where the building's hardware has an API or SIP. It is planned with the developer at the design stage, which fits project finance.

    Measured in the pilot: buildings connected, project by project.

  8. 8

    Building data, with consent

    A structured record of each building through a public API. Any use by your own products needs the resident's consent and follows local law.

    Measured in the pilot: which of your products use it, with consent.

What does a resident see in your app?

One list works in every building on Unitify. The other depends on the building's hardware.

In every building on Unitify

  • The manager's news, with push

  • EV charging

How can a bank offer Unitify to its customers?

Three formats, all ready. You choose the format. The timeline follows it and your own security review: name the format, and we give you a date.

  1. 1

    A module inside your app

    The resident side of Unitify runs inside your banking app as a mini-app, a deep link or a set of screens. Residents sign in with your bank ID, and the manager keeps working in Unitify. If your app already holds many residents, this is the strong option: they are already there.

  2. 2

    Your own interface on our API

    Your team builds the screens on our public GraphQL API and webhooks, with OpenID Connect sign-in. Your design, your release cycle.

  3. 3

    Your products inside the manager's workspace

    Accounts, deposits and savings, acquiring, payments and lending are built into the web workspace where the management company works. Everyone there sees them, not only the accountant.

    How this works

How do a bank's products work inside a management company's workspace?

A bank's products for a management company usually sit in a separate internet bank, and one person opens it: the accountant. In Unitify the management company works in a web workspace all day. The director, the building managers, the dispatcher and the accountant are all in it. We build your products into that workspace, so they sit inside the work and everyone who works there sees them. Fintech built into the business processes.

The workspace is ready today; each of your products is connected to it one at a time, together with your team. Unitify does not hold the money and does not replace your identification and checks. A request to open a building's account goes to your bank, and your bank does its own checks.

Does Unitify also do billing, reporting and reports to residents?

Yes, and it is wider than billing. The money of a building is shown in three places, from the same data.

  1. 1

    Billing

    Charges, invoices, payments and arrears for each building, with the resident's bill in the app. Where a building already has a billing system, Unitify reads the bills from it.

  2. 2

    Management reporting

    Income and spending for each building and for the management company as a whole: what was collected, what was spent, what is owed and what sits on the accounts.

  3. 3

    Reports to residents

    A monthly report in the resident's app and on the building's page: where the money went. A sample for a typical building is on the residents' page.

How does Unitify connect to a bank?

Where does the law make each building a bank client?

In several countries the law ties a building to a bank account. Whoever runs the building day to day is the person who takes that account to a bank.

Legal facts were checked against the primary sources. The dates of access are on each country page.

Who is behind Unitify, and what has it run?

Unitify's founder previously ran a residential management company serving 20,000 residents, then built a platform that reached 10,000 management companies and 5M+ apartments, then exited.

At Ande Tower in Batumi (about 500 apartments), collections rose from 40% to 80% of monthly charges over six months, and requests are handled three times faster. At Avant Park in Baku (1,000 apartments), the share of collected monthly payments made through the resident app grew from 19% in June 2026 to 74% in August 2026.

A developer in Nairobi sent spreadsheets with layouts and floor plans, and Unitify's AI built the building in the system, 15 entrances, 138 floors in total and 510 apartments, in seconds.

The founder's previous platform was acquired by a major financial institution. There, building managers' news reached residents inside that bank's app, and the bank's relationship managers offered the platform to their clients.

About the founder

What does a pilot with a bank look like?

We start on live buildings, without exclusivity. Over a pilot of a few months we report four numbers: residents who added their home in your app, how often they open it, the share of the buildings' payments that went through your bank, and the buildings that opened an account with you. You decide on the next step from your own data.

Frequently asked questions

What does a bank get from Unitify?

A Home section with daily reasons to open your app, building accounts and long-term balances at your bank, and the buildings' utility payments on your acquiring. We measure each of these in a pilot on your own data.

Do we have to build or run building management ourselves?

No. Building managers run their buildings in Unitify, and we connect them, train them and support residents. Your team decides the format and passes the security review.

Does the money go through Unitify?

No. Residents pay through your acquiring into the account of the building or its manager. Unitify is software, not a payment institution.

In which formats can a bank offer it?

As a module inside your app, as your own interface on our API, or as your products built into the manager's web workspace. It can also run as a separate app under your brand. White label is a paid option, so the format sets the cost and the timeline.

Does Unitify have its own resident app?

Yes. Unitify has its own resident app, and managers use it today. A bank whose app already holds many residents can embed the same features in that app instead, and for such a bank it is the strong option. Both work.

How do residents sign in?

Through your bank ID, over OpenID Connect. The resident adds their apartment once.

Where is the data stored?

Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan run on local servers in the country, the EU on servers in Düsseldorf, Germany, and other markets are agreed per deployment. Your country or your own servers are available on request. More on the security page.

What if the building already has a billing system?

Unitify reads the bills from it and shows them in the app, and the building keeps its accounting. Where a building has no billing system, Unitify issues the bills.

Is Unitify a payment institution?

No. Unitify is software for running residential buildings. Card payments run through the acquiring of the bank or payment provider, under that provider's contract with the building or its manager. Unitify shows the resident the bill and the payment status, and records the payment against the right apartment.

Which countries does this work in?

Unitify runs buildings in the Caucasus and Central Asia and is open to any market. Payment providers and bank-statement formats are connected per country, most on request in one to two days. The list is on the payment rails page.

How fast can a pilot start?

A building goes live in one to two days once we have its list of apartments. The in-app integration timeline depends on the format you choose and your security review: name the format, and we give you a date.

Is this exclusive?

No. A pilot starts on live buildings without exclusivity.

What does it cost?

Plans for building managers are on the pricing page. White label and integration formats are priced after a short brief.
