UnionCloud
UnionCloud was created with an aim of connecting the UK’s 7 million students and Students’ Unions whilst also being local, individual and bespoke. Offering a union website in a box, as well as modules to help unions support students, from volunteering and shopping to elections, the platform offers flexibility and adaptability to unions, regardless of their size and scope. UnionCloud is currently used in over 150 HE and FE settings helping them all bring campus life to students at the touch of a button.
Speaking on behalf of OneVoice Digital, Elizabeth Bone, Managing Director said:
“We’re really pleased to have found such a like-minded partner in native. UnionCloud has always put student needs at its core, right from its very start, and seeing native take the same approach got us thinking; what other benefits could we deliver working together?
“This new partnership provides an enhanced experience for Unions and their students. Sharing a single sign in makes it so easy for students to discover events, and unions get automatic synchronisation between the two platforms, so content loading burdens are reduced. Add in the data-reporting options and you have a winner for anyone interested in campus events.”
Features

This offers freedom and flexibility to Unions and Promoters as they can choose where to list events without fearing missing out on taking advantage of both platforms’ premium technology;
- Easily run your elections, manage clubs and societies and target students using dynamic student groups with UnionCloud.
- Whilst enhancing your event offering with native’s first-class ticketing features such as digital wristbands, promo codes, and our scanning app.
