A Tenant Portal Residents Actually Want to Use

Most tenant portals are PDF graveyards. JumboTiger's is a branded, mobile-first experience that residents actually open: pay rent, submit maintenance tickets, book facilities, access lease documents, RSVP to events, and message the team. All under your brand.

What's broken without proper software

Generic portals nobody opens

Most PMS guest portals hit 30 to 40 per cent adoption then plateau. Residents don't bother because there's no compelling daily reason to log in.

Email and WhatsApp chaos

Without a single channel, residents email, WhatsApp, and phone for everything. Your team wastes hours per week routing repetitive requests.

PDF lease graveyards

Most portals are document storage. Residents log in once to download a PDF, never return. The portal becomes shelfware.

No community feature, so no community

BTR, coliving, and PBSA all sell community as a value prop, then run it on Eventbrite and Slack. The portal is the missing surface.

Native iOS and Android, branded as your brand

Not a webview. True native apps published under your operator brand on App Store and Play Store. Residents download what looks like your in-house product, not a JumboTiger product.

Common questions

Is it a separate app per property or one app for the operator?

One app per operator brand. Residents see their building, rent details, and community based on their lease, but it's one app for your portfolio across multiple properties.

Can residents sign leases in the app?

Yes. E-signature is built in. Residents can review, e-sign, and download leases in-app. Compliant with eIDAS (EU) and UETA / E-SIGN (US).

Does it work for HMO and shared-room residents?

Yes. Each tenant has their own portal account, even when they share a property. Shared utilities and facility bookings use a household model that respects per-tenant privacy.

How customisable is the branding?

Fully. Logo, colours, fonts, App Store listing, domain, all yours. Residents see your brand, not JumboTiger's. Implementation team configures everything during the 30-day deployment.
