CourseLynx vs Gated

CourseLynx is for students made by students to be a platform for collaboration. Replacing traditional group messaging apps that are not designed specifically for students, CourseLynx allows you to easily manage your classes and find your community.

Gated is the campus events app for student organizations and the students who go to their events. Organizations (fraternities, sororities, clubs, and campus groups) post what’s happening. Students discover events by university, RSVP or get tickets, and check in at the door with a QR code. FOR STUDENTS • See upcoming events for your school on Home • Search organizations and people • Explore events on the campus Map • RSVP to free events or buy tickets when an event is paid • Keep your QR tickets in one place • Follow organizations you care about • Chat with hosts in event conversations when enabled FOR ORGANIZATIONS • Post campus events with details, cover photos, and capacity • Offer free or paid tickets (paid events use Stripe Checkout) • Run Philanthropy “Support” contributions with a clear disclosure before payment • Scan tickets at the door for check-in • Manage chapter team roles and payouts in Settings PAYMENTS Ticket and Support payments are for real-world, in-person campus events.
