How does Apply with Aptari work on listings from other portals?

Apply with Aptari turns an application on another portal into three moves: tap, paste, send. With one tap aptari writes your message in the listing's language, with your checked facts and a link to your full dossier, copies it and opens the listing. You paste it into the contact form, add your name and email and press send. The advertiser gets checked facts instead of claims and your whole dossier behind one link, with no PDFs to attach. Your documents open only under your rules, and you always press send yourself.

Almost as simple as one click

You found the flat on another portal. Usually that means typing the same details again, writing a message and attaching PDFs, for every single flat. With Apply with Aptari your application is ready in one tap, and it goes out in under a minute.

Three moves: tap, paste, send

  1. Tap "Apply with Aptari". aptari writes your message in the listing's language, with your checked facts, your phone number and the link to your dossier. It copies the message and opens the listing.
  2. Paste the message into the contact form and add your name and email.
  3. Press send. Done. The application appears in your list on aptari, and you see when your link is opened.

The first time, a short screen shows exactly what the advertiser will see, and you confirm it once.

Why your application stands out

  • Checked facts, not claims. Each fact shows when and how it was checked, for example with the debt extract or the salary certificate.
  • Your whole dossier behind one link. No attachments, no file size limits, nothing to type twice.
  • In the advertiser's language. German, French, Italian or English, chosen for each listing.
  • Short and polite. A clean first message with no advertising in it.

Many agencies answer with an invitation to a viewing or with their own application form. Your message is the first step, and it makes a strong first impression.

You stay in control

  • No score on the advertiser's page: only your checked facts and your motivation letter.
  • Documents open only under your rules: after the advertiser confirms a work email with a 6-digit code, for every verified agency or only for agencies that shortlist you. A private address such as Gmail always needs your approval. Every page carries the viewer's email and the time as a watermark.
  • You see every open: which link, which document, which confirmed email, when and for how long.
  • One link per flat. If the same flat is on several portals, aptari recognises it, so you never send twice.
  • Withdraw any time in Settings. A link ends after 30 days, earlier when the listing goes offline; you can extend it once.
  • aptari never sends in your name. You press send, on the portal, in your own session.

Where it works

Apply with Aptari works on listings from other Swiss portals and from housing cooperatives, on their own website: you see the button on every listing where it is ready, and more listings keep joining. On listings from aptari partner agencies it is even faster: Passport Apply sends your Tenant Passport in one tap.

What it costs

  • Basic (free): 20 Apply with Aptari a month, plus 5 Passport Apply.
  • Pro: 300 a month.
  • Ultra: unlimited.

The free trial gives you the Pro allowance.

In one line

Tap, paste, send: aptari prepares a complete, checked application with your dossier behind one link, and you stay in control of who sees what.
