FLEXIPASS GUIDE · STUDENT HOUSING
Digital keys for student housing
on the phone or as a code
For student housing and purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA), FLEXIPASS gives residents a digital key for their assigned room: a Mobile Key in an app, a Webkey link, a Wallet Key in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet, or a PIN Code, on supported ASSA ABLOY, dormakaba or SALTO locks. FLEXIPASS also connects with Spaceflow, which links building communities, tenants and services, and keycards stay available as a fallback.
Which digital key suits student housing?
Mobile Keys
Compatible Bluetooth locks, such as Vingcard VOSTIO and Visionline, dormakaba ambiance or SALTO SPACE, and the FLEXIPASS app or your own app with the SDK.
Webkeys
A secure link opened in the phone’s browser, with no app. Listed for supported online locks from SALTO, ASSA ABLOY, dormakaba exivo and other brands.
Wallet Keys
ASSA ABLOY Vingcard locks on VOSTIO with wallet-capable readers.
PIN Codes
A code entered at a compatible keypad. Listed for SALTO SPACE and KS, ASSA ABLOY TESA, TTLock and Glutz.

QUICK ANSWERS
Good questions. Clear answers.
What is the best digital key system for student accommodation?
One platform that offers every key type on the locks you already have. FLEXIPASS offers Mobile Keys, Webkeys, Wallet Keys and PIN Codes on supported ASSA ABLOY, dormakaba or SALTO locks, so each resident can use the key that suits them.
Does FLEXIPASS work with Spaceflow?
Yes. FLEXIPASS connects with Spaceflow, which links building communities, tenants and services, so room access becomes part of the resident’s digital journey.
Do we have to buy new locks to use FLEXIPASS?
Not necessarily. FLEXIPASS adds digital keys to supported existing lock systems, so you may be able to keep your locks. Some properties need software changes, licences, readers, connectivity or hardware upgrades.
Can we keep key cards alongside digital keys?
Yes. With FLEXIPASS, digital keys and physical keycards can be used at the same time, and a keycard stays the fallback for a dead battery or an unsupported phone.
