Create, Connect and Customise: Spike Living’s New Content Feature Has Arrived

You asked for more flexibility, we delivered.

 

Introducing our brand-new Content feature on Spike Living – designed to give property managers and community managers full creative control to build and share meaningful, customised content with residents directly through the app.

 

Whether you want to introduce your onsite team, highlight local services, or launch a wellbeing corner – this feature lets you do it your way. 

Put the Power in Your Hands

Complete Flexibility 
You’re in control. From “Meet the Team” sections to wellbeing content, pet policies to partner promos – it’s entirely up to you what you share. 

 

Boost Resident Engagement 
Create content your residents actually care about. It’s easy to add helpful, human, and visually engaging posts that increase time spent on the app and drive real engagement. 

 

Support Community Connection 
Put faces to names, share local stories, and make your community feel more personal, connected, and informed. 

 

Promote Local Services 
Easily promote trusted third-party services like dry cleaning, pet care, or cleaning providers – helping residents while adding value to your ecosystem. 

 

Highlight Local Hotspots
Use the new ‘Around Me’ area to introduce residents to your neighbourhood. Share recommendations for cafes, restaurants, bars, parks, and more – helping new and existing residents discover everything your local area has to offer.

 

No More One-Size-Fits-All 
Tailor visibility for different audiences – residents only see the content relevant to them, creating a more personalised app experience. 

What Can You Do with It? 

Here are just a few ideas for how you could use the Content feature: 

  • Meet the Team – Showcase your on-site staff so residents know who’s who and build familiarity. 
  • Resident Wellbeing – Share mindfulness tips, mental health resources or workout videos to support mental wellness in your community.  
  • Local Services – Highlight dry cleaning, dog walking, or cleaning services. 
  • Events and Activities – Add more context or visual storytelling around upcoming events, or recap past events in such a photo gallery. 
  • Welcome Area – A digital welcome pack for new residents. 
  • Sustainability zone – provide energy-saving tips, green initiatives and more.
  • Around Me – Help residents feel at home faster by sharing the best local cafes, restaurants, bars, and things to do nearby.

How It Works 

From the Staff Dashboard:

A new Content section is now available under the Engagement tab. 

 

Staff can create new content categories (e.g. “Around Me”). 

 

Staff can also create and edit content within these categories using our easy-to-use editor – complete with headings, images, videos, and more. 

 

On the Mobile App: 

Residents will see any published content relevant to them displayed as a carousel under the category title.

 

Each content category appears as its own section underneath the “Latest Promotions” banner – making it super easy to browse and engage. 

Ready to See It in Action?  

The new Content feature was built with you in mind – giving you the tools to create rich, meaningful experiences for your residents, all in one place.
