The room near campus
A month of housing, or a deposit they already put down. Send the amount they asked for, to the ID they gave you.
Campus
They are on campus.The money should be too.
Rent, a textbook, a meal card top-up. Send to their ID — not a form that sits until the next bank day. Arrival within 1 second. Transfer fee S$ 0.
What you send
Living money, not a one-off from the bank.
They are already at school. You cover what comes up this week — rent share, books, a meal plan — as soon as they tell you the ID.
Term
Books, labs, a meal card
Smaller, more often. Still the same hop: match the name, send, they have it in class.
The ask
They ping you, you send
Not a scheduled bank credit. They tell you the amount. You confirm the ID. It is done.
Paying a student who is already there
Use the ID they sent from campus.
They are not sitting in a branch. They share Account ID, phone, email, a QR, or a receive link. You send to that. Ways they can get paid
- 01
The ID from the chat
Search Account ID, phone, or email. Match the name they use at home. Send only the amount they asked for.
- 02
If they have not registered yet
They generate a receive link in the official app. You pay that link. Skip unofficial pages.
- 03
QR on a video call
They show a receive QR. You scan, check the name, send. Official Starryblu codes only.
Campus is another currency
Send in what you hold. They get the living currency.
You sit in SGD. Rent is in GBP. That is still one send. Conversion runs on the hop, or you convert first in Starryblu.
Shown before you send the week
The converted amount and the rate appear on confirm. You are not guessing what they can spend at the shop.
No extra conversion fee
Auto or manual, conversion has no extra fee. The ID send stays S$ 0.
This term
Several sends. None of them add a fee.
Campus living is not one transfer. The ID fee stays S$ 0 on every hop, in or out. See the price list

Not a tuition wire
The school invoice is SWIFT. The weekly money is an ID.
A university that asks for a bank credit is still a SWIFT hop, and ID Remit is not that. Living support they spend on campus is the ID Transfer.
- What this hop is forRent, books, a meal card — money they spend from Starryblu. Not the tuition line the registrar posted as IBAN / BIC.
- What you enterThe Account ID, phone, email, QR, or receive link they sent from campus. Match the name. You are not filling a bank form for a textbook.

FAQ
Campus support, asked from home
Who you pay, tuition vs living money, and whether a textbook is worth sending.
Who do I send campus money to?
Send to the student. Search the Account ID, phone, or email they sent you, or scan their QR. Confirm the name. Do not send living money to a roommate unless they asked you to.
Can I pay tuition on an Account ID?
No. A university that asks for a bank credit is still a SWIFT hop. ID Remit is living money to their Starryblu balance — rent, books, meals — not a school invoice rail.
They just arrived and are not registered. Can they still receive?
Yes. They generate a receive link in the official app. You pay that link. Skip any link that did not come from Starryblu.
I hold a different currency than campus. Can I still send?
Yes. Send from the balance you have. Conversion runs in the same hop, or convert first. No extra conversion fee. The rate is on the confirm screen.
Is a S$ 60 textbook worth sending on ID Remit?
Yes. The ID transfer fee is S$ 0 at any size, and they do not pay one to receive. Arrival is within 1 second after you confirm.
