Meet Gecko & Unibuddy
Gecko helps institutions create frictionless student journeys through smart automation, events, and targeted campaigns. Unibuddy connects prospective students with your current students through peer-to-peer chat and digital communities.
Together, these platforms deliver connected, data-driven engagement from first inquiry to enrollment—without the platform juggling.
What This Integration Does
Sync Data Automatically
Student contact data and engagement insights from Unibuddy flow directly into Gecko overnight. No more manual imports or spreadsheet management.
Create Smarter Campaigns
Use Unibuddy engagement data to build targeted contact groups in Gecko. Send personalised emails based on which community a student joined, their confidence level, or course interest.
Trigger Workflows That Matter
Set up automations that respond to Unibuddy activity:
- Send community invites when students reach offer holder status
- Launch nurturing campaigns after peer conversations
- Add high-intent contacts to call lists
Show Events Where Students Are
Display your Gecko-managed events inside Unibuddy communities. Students can register without leaving the platform, boosting visibility and attendance.
Embed Conversations in Your Portal
If you’re using Gecko’s student portal, you can now embed Unibuddy conversations alongside tasks, offers, and event invites.
Who This Works For
Current users of Gecko, Unibuddy, or both looking to connect their platforms. Teams wanting to eliminate data silos and automate student engagement. Institutions ready to personalise communications at scale.
