Semester subleases at California State University-East Bay.

Why Crashmates

Why do California State University-East Bay students use Crashmates instead of Roomster?

Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every California State University-East Bay student a subscription to message profiles — most of which are bots or scammers operating outside the US. Bunky doesn’t verify .edu emails at all and doesn’t carry housing listings. Facebook California State University-East Bay groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the California State University-East Bay community: only students with a verified @csueastbay.edu email can join, and joining, posting, browsing, and matching are all free — you only spend a credit to send the first message in a new conversation, with no subscriptions, no auto-renewals, and no $30/month surprises. California State University-East Bay students looking for verified students near me, Hayward roommates near me, or California State University-East Bay housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.
