Why Crashmates

Built for Pittsburgh. Not for Roomster.

Other roommate apps don’t verify students. Roomster charges every Pittsburgh 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 Pittsburgh groups are full of brokers and fake posts. Craigslist is a privacy nightmare. Crashmates was built specifically for the Pittsburgh community: only students with a verified @upj.pitt.edu email can join, browsing and matching are free forever, and you only pay credits when you choose to send the first message — no subscriptions, no auto-renewals, no $30/month surprises. Pittsburgh students looking for verified students near me, Johnstown roommates near me, or Pittsburgh housing near campus get the cleanest signal of any roommate app on the market.

Came from Roomster which was 90% bots. This is night and day. Free to browse, free to match.

No subscription trap. I bought 10 credits, used 4 of them, still have 6 sitting in my account.

Solid app. Wish there were more verified students in my niche but the ones here were legit.
