The Punt Social

Built for Cambridge, by Cambridge. Verified @cam.ac.uk only — no bots, no outsiders. Find events, swap tickets, and trade safely with escrow protection.

Cambridge's verified student app: events, tickets, and a marketplace built for @cam.ac.uk only.

The Punt is built for one university and one university only: Cambridge.

Sign in with your @cam.ac.uk email and you're in a verified space with other students, fellows, and staff. No bots. No outsiders. No anonymous accounts. Just the people you actually share a college, a course, a society, or a staircase with.

EVENTS THAT MATTER TO YOU Discover what's actually happening in Cambridge this week — formals, swaps, club nights, society talks, college events, May Balls, and more. Every event is filtered for the university, not the city. Save events, see who else is going, and never miss a queue release again.

TICKETS WITHOUT THE SCAM The single biggest problem in Cambridge student life: ticket scams. Resold formals that don't exist, May Ball tickets sent over peer-to-peer payment apps that vanish, last-minute swap tickets from people you've never met. The Punt fixes this with built-in buyer protection on every ticket sale. Your money is held safely until the seller delivers and you confirm.

A REAL MARKETPLACE Sell or buy what students actually trade — gowns, textbooks, college stash, sports kit, lab coats, ball dresses, bikes, end-of-term room clearouts. Every transaction is protected by escrow. Buyers pay through the app, sellers deliver, buyers confirm, and only then is the money released. No bank transfers to strangers. No "send half upfront."

Pricing is shown upfront, in full, before you tap pay. No hidden fees added at checkout. Compliant with the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024.

COMMUNITIES THAT FEEL LIKE CAMBRIDGE Join your college, your subject, your society, your sports team. Share things only Cambridge people would understand. Direct message verified students, organise swaps, post in your year group's feed. Built-in moderation, full block and report tools, and a strict 18+ verified community.

WHY .CAM.AC.UK ONLY Some apps let anyone in and call it a student community. Ours doesn't. Every account is tied to a real Cambridge email at signup. If you don't have one, you can't sign in. That's the whole point.

PRIVACY, SAFETY, AND TRUST All payments handled by Stripe. We never see or store card details. Sellers receiving payments are identity-verified via Stripe Connect. Image and text moderation on every post, comment, and listing. Full block, report, and account deletion tools built in. 18+ only. UK GDPR compliant. Full Privacy Policy and Terms of Service in the app.
