Here\u2019s how our app-based solution measures up against Glide!<\/p>\n<h2>Bills package<\/h2>\n<p>Glide pioneered the concept of a bills package. <strong>acasa<\/strong> are running with this idea in a simple, app-based form, collating all your utility bills, broadband and TV licence into a single app. With <strong>acasa<\/strong>, you can even add track and split other household costs such as groceries, cleaning products and nights out!<\/p>\n<h2>Direct billing<\/h2>\n<p>Just like Glide, <strong>acasa<\/strong> uses direct billing so that everyone is accountable for their own bills. This means that, as opposed to a situation where one person has responsibility for a bill\u2014or even all of them\u2014no one is left bearing the burden of somebody else\u2019s late payment.<\/p>\n<h2>Smartphone<\/h2>\n<p>Nowadays, you can pretty much run your life from your pocket with the help of your smartphone. There\u2019s no reason your utility bills should be an exception to this. Whereas Glide relies on a larger online system, <strong>acasa<\/strong> puts your household costs at your fingertips with a clever, easy-to-use app as well as a state of the art website.<\/p>\n<h2>Energy efficiency<\/h2>\n<p>Environmental concerns are becoming integral to the way we run our homes as we all become more conscious of our carbon footprint. <strong>acasa<\/strong> wants to make reducing the impact your energy usage is having on the world as simple as possible by pairing you with eco-friendly suppliers at affordable rates.<\/p>\n<h2>Social Responsibility<\/h2>\n<p>The team at <strong>acasa<\/strong> are focused not only on making sure the little things work for you in your home, but also on helping the world live better together.<\/p>\n<h2>Fees<\/h2>\n<p>One of the biggest complaints you\u2019ll find online about Glide is how much higher monthly payments can work out after their administration fees are added on.<\/p>\n<h2>Use acasa<\/h2>\n<p><strong>acasa<\/strong> is a bill sharing app designed for anyone sharing a house, from students to young professionals to couples. With <strong>acasa<\/strong>, you can avoid unnecessary conflict around splitting utility bills with our direct billing and balance tracking systems.
