Software for the residents associations and social committees who run Australian lifestyle villages. Directory · activities · voting · rostering · ticketing · digital signage · payments — and a nine-initiative playbook for funding it.
Every village starts on Silver — the operational basics every committee needs. Gold layers on the revenue toolkit, the operational backbone for the playbook initiatives. Per-house licence flexes as the village grows.
Run the village. The basics, properly done.
Run the revenue. Everything in Silver, plus the operational layer for the playbook.
BillabongLife is licensed by house, not by user — every resident, family member and volunteer gets access without per-seat charges. Tier change is self-serve in the app whenever the village is ready.
The operational basics every village needs. Directory, activities, voting, emails, help desk. The complete community management toolkit, without the revenue layer.
Everything in Silver, plus the operational backbone for the playbook. Rostering, ticketing, digital signage, marketing automation, payments. Most villages running 4+ initiatives need Gold.
Most "village management software" stops at managing residents. BillabongLife's playbook is nine programmes — quick wins like Containers for Change, plus bigger plays like a volunteer café and a Friday-night dinner — that take village life and turn it into the funding line for the association.
Recycling for revenue. Zero capital outlay, no cash handling.
Self-serve drinks and snacks with tap-and-go. Quiet revenue when the café isn't open.
Local businesses pay to reach your residents. Annual prepay, near-zero cost.
Christmas flagship plus event-embedded raffles. Modest effort, repeatable revenue, no licence required.
Eight to ten events that anchor the year, drive engagement, and feed every other revenue line.
Monthly music bingo, band nights, trivia. The cadence that keeps residents looking forward to the next one.
Tipsters, card tournaments, fishing comps. Activates niche interest groups across the village.
A village coffee shop run by trained volunteers. The largest revenue line in the playbook.
A weekly residents-only Friday dinner. High turnover, modest margin, enormous community value.
