Basera walks you through every step — the eVisa, the SIM, the bank, the GP, the Railcard — in the right order for your visa, with honest advice and no admin surprises.
We ask what actually changes things — your visa, where you're from, where you'll be living — and skip the rest until it's useful.
Student, dependant, Graduate Route, Skilled Worker. A dependant's checklist is not a student's — so we never mix them.
India by state, or Nepal, Bangladesh, Pakistan, Sri Lanka. Guides and share cards speak your family's language.
Each step opens the real thing — the bank, gov.uk, the Railcard — in one tap. Finish the essentials and earn your first stamp.
Essentials first, then the money-savers, then the extras. In the right order for your stage: before you fly, just landed, been here a while.
The Underground, supermarkets, the NHS, British phrases. Snackable, honest, and with a quiz at the end if you fancy a badge.
Free stuff, food, days out and deals — each with a one-line verdict. “Skip unless you'll actually cook — it auto-renews.”
Share your link. Every friend who settles in with Basera counts as someone you've helped — and unlocks stamps for your album.
Roughly one in three UK study visas goes to someone from South Asia. Basera is built for us first — by state and by community, not one generic “international student”.
Yes. Basera earns a small fee when you sign up for some services through our links — a bank, a SIM, a Railcard. You pay the same price as you would anywhere else, usually less. That fee is how we keep the app free for everyone.
No. Answer three quick questions and your checklist opens straight away. You only create an account (Google or email — name and email, nothing else) when you first tick something off, so your progress is saved.
Yes — and your checklist is different on purpose: right-to-work share code, full-time work rights, finding work and childcare content instead of enrolment and student discounts.
All of the UK. We have every major city and university built in; the guides are UK-wide with local detail where it matters (London transport, for example).
Badges in Basera are postage stamps. You earn them by doing things — landing, finishing your essentials, passing a guide quiz, helping a friend settle. Collect the set, share them home.
Basera works in your browser and installs to your home screen like an app — on iPhone, Android and laptop. Open app.joinbasera.com and tap “Add to Home Screen”.
Three questions, then your checklist. No card, no catch.
