PG and hostel management software for Indian operators

Stayqa is India-native PG management software for owners and private hostel operators who need one workspace for beds, tenants, rent dues, documents, maintenance, and payment follow-up.

Direct answer

What is Stayqa?

Stayqa is a web-based operating system for Indian PGs, student hostels, and bed-space businesses. It helps operators track rooms and beds, manage tenant records, see occupancy, record rent and deposit dues, follow up on pending payments, store documents, and manage maintenance from one place.

What Stayqa manages for PG and hostel owners

Beds and occupancy

Create properties, rooms, and beds so the operator can see who is staying where and which beds are vacant.

Tenant records

Store tenant details, booking data, documents, and basic onboarding information in one workspace.

Dues and payment follow-up

Track rent and deposit dues, identify pending tenants, record payments, and copy a short WhatsApp-ready follow-up message.

Documents and operations

Keep document records, maintenance requests, staff workflows, tenant portal actions, and basic reports connected to the same property data.

Stayqa vs Excel and WhatsApp for PG operations

Workflow	Stayqa	Excel and WhatsApp
Occupancy	Beds, rooms, tenants, and bookings stay connected.	Occupancy can become stale across sheets and chats.
Dues	Rent and deposit dues can be tracked against real tenant records.	Follow-up often depends on memory, manual notes, or scattered messages.
Documents	Tenant documents can be stored with the tenant profile.	Files and photos often sit across phones, drives, and paper folders.
Tenant experience	Tenants can use a no-app web portal for key actions.	Tenants usually depend on manual messages or calls for updates.

Best fit

Independent PG owners with 1 to 3 properties
Private hostel operators managing rooms and beds
Small teams moving away from Excel, WhatsApp, and paper registers
Operators who care about beds, tenants, dues, documents, and maintenance

Not the focus

RWA or apartment society management
Hotel-first property management
Full university or institutional ERP workflows
Heavy accounting systems beyond basic dues, payments, and invoices
Custom one-off integrations that do not improve PG and hostel workflows

FAQ

Questions Indian PG owners ask before switching

What is PG management software?

PG management software is a system that helps paying guest accommodation owners manage beds, rooms, tenants, rent dues, documents, maintenance, and day-to-day operations without relying only on spreadsheets, WhatsApp, or paper registers.

Who is Stayqa built for?

Stayqa is built for independent PG owners, private hostel operators, and small operations teams in India that manage real properties, beds, tenants, and rent follow-up. It is not positioned as generic RWA software, hotel-first PMS, or a full institutional ERP.

Can Stayqa replace Excel and WhatsApp for PG owners?

Stayqa can replace the core system-of-record work that often lives in Excel and WhatsApp: beds, tenants, occupancy, dues, payment records, documents, and follow-up visibility. Operators may still use WhatsApp for communication, especially during early workflows.

Does Stayqa require tenants to install an app?

Stayqa uses a no-app tenant portal approach, so tenants can access key actions from the web instead of being forced to install another mobile app.

Does Stayqa provide official Aadhaar verification?

No. Document upload or document-assisted autofill should be treated as an optional setup helper from tenant-provided documents, not as official Aadhaar verification or government-grade KYC.
