Smart Tools That Make Residence Life Easier to Manage
Every checkout is tied to a student’s profile, so you know exactly who has what and when it was returned. This reduces loss, improves accountability, and gives you data to make smarter purchasing decisions.
RecRe helps teams confidently scale back 24/7 desk staffing. RecRe has saved campuses dozens of labor hours a week and tens of thousands of dollars each year while still giving students access to the items they need around the clock.
Limit gear access to specific buildings, floors, or resident types using phone number verification or pre-approved user lists. You stay in control of who can borrow what — no staff involvement needed.
View live data on which items are most popular, how often they’re used, and which students are engaging with your amenities. Use this insight to justify budgets, adjust inventory, and show ROI.

Our experience with the RecRe team has been fantastic. Installation was a breeze and afterwards, RecRe spent time with stakeholders explaining both the product and the software. They have been very responsive and have assisted with modifying to meet our exact needs.
I would strongly recommend RecRe as a campus vendor.

“RecRe has been a game changer for us. We have been able to shift staffing models, meeting more needs of students, faculty and staff while providing greater autonomy for patrons to check out equipment when they need it.”
Katie Burns
Executive Director, Campus Recreation | Utah State University
What RecRe has allowed institutions to do is to maximize the utilization of student life spaces for their intended purpose: student engagement. Students can use recreation and gaming equipment as well as campus programming supplies in ways that reduce staffing needs, increase resource usage, and maintain student accountability. Institutions feel more comfortable loaning out high-cost equipment in ways that improve institutional equity as well.Â
The RecRe team is easy to work with, extremely open to feature requests, and true partners in increasing student engagement and campus affinity.
