San Jose,United States, March 16, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --

CampusPost executive team (Matthew Longfield, Co-Founder & Timothy Longfield, Co-Founder) haved joined Unibui full-time, working to successfully merge the two operations and build out the Unibui product/brand.

-Acquisition enables Unibui to expand its strategic footprint into the growing consumer applications sector and reach customers more effectively via iOS.

“I am thrilled to announce the acquisition of CampusPost,” Unibui’s CEO Payom Niazmandi. “Following our resilient growth in 2020, we examined the industry for additional opportunities to connect with students. We quickly identified CampusPost’s mobile app as best-in-class and their founding team to be innovating in both mission and technology. On behalf of all of us at Unibui, we are blessed to welcome CampusPost and to embark on this new chapter of growth.”

-The deal adds an exciting new array of software solutions to the AWS-backed Unibui platform and deepens its product competencies, particularly in the mobile space. Currently, Unibui serves over 3,600 universities and 21 million students, giving them the opportunity to save in their communities. Students who use Unibui save an average of $2,500/year, including tuition reimbursement. As a result of utilizing Unibui, colleges receive accurate student data, such as updated addresses, contact registration, and purchasing information. For local and corporate businesses, Unibui provides unparalleled marketing access to students, facilitating long-lasting brand loyalty with the population’s most valuable demographic. Unibui has been selected by the California Community Colleges System as the approved student benefits and data platform. This is the largest higher education system in America, consisting of 114 colleges and 2.2 million students. Unibui is FERPA and locally compliant in all 50 states.

-The CampusPost app is an iOS platform hosting a digital bulletin board, peer-to-peer marketplace, and community forum for students. By integrating CampusPost’s code into the existing Unibui project, Unibui will be able to deliver a more seamless experience for students, while offering brands more exclusive access to the mobile devices of their target market. The acquisition has shown to be a strategic move for Unibui, with Bay Area tech giant TechCrunch already signing an exclusive partnership to reach students through the new Unibui iOS.
