Designed for Platform shared owners

Shared ownership is one of the least understood ways to own a home in the UK. Platform connected their records to Stairpay so you get straight answers about your own home, when you need them.

The tools to manage your home

Your account arrives already filled in — Platform's own records, not numbers you have to go and find.

Your personal home dashboardEverything about your home in one place: what it is worth, how much of it is yours, what you pay each month, and every document you might need.
Check whether you could reduce your rentUse the calculator to see what a bigger share would cost and what it would take off your rent — there is no pressure either way. If you do decide to go ahead, you submit through Stairpay against Platform's own process and recommended panels, and their team manages the application from there.
All your home questions, answeredAsk what a clause means or why your rent changed and get a straight answer, 24/7, from your own lease and your own figures.

Questions your neighbours are asking

Your lease, your rent, your service charge, or what buying more of your Platform home would actually cost — ask any of it.

General information about shared ownership, not financial or legal advice. Always check your own lease.
Who manages my staircasing application?

Platform, from the moment you submit it. Stairpay is where you put the application together and check it over; the decisions are not ours to make. Your Platform staircasing team approves the extra share and takes it through to completion. What your account gives you meanwhile is their process laid out and their recommended panels in one place, so nothing has to be chased twice.

Do I still contact Platform directly for repairs?

Yes. Platform is still your landlord and still handles repairs. Stairpay does not sit between you and them: report a repair the way you always have, and use your account here for questions about what you own, what you pay and what you could do next.

Is Stairpay free for me?

Yes, and it stays free. The cost is met by Platform rather than by you, so that every one of their shared owners has what they need to make decisions about their home and their future with confidence. Staircasing itself is separate: a valuation, legal fees and any lender charges are real costs, and none of them come to Stairpay.

Can I use Stairpay if I'm not planning to buy more yet?

Yes. Buying more is one thing Stairpay helps with, not the reason to have an account. You can track your home's value, see what you are paying and try out scenarios whenever you want to, without committing to anything. Sooner is better than later.

Is Stairpay an official Platform service?

Yes. Stairpay works in partnership with Platform, who supply the information behind your account. That is why your own figures are already there when you sign in, instead of being something you have to go and find.

What if my address isn't recognised?

First, check you have selected the right landlord. Then check whether you already have an account and are trying to create a second one — logging in will tell you. If neither is it, email helpdesk@stairpay.com and we will look into it for you.

Very useful and easy to use

Stairpay gave me a clearer understanding of what level of staircasing might be affordable and helped me evaluate my options more confidently.

Great service

Stairpay stayed on top of everything and chased other parties for updates or actions as required.
