CramEasy Partners with Student Hero to Help South African Students Fund Their Learning
CramEasy is proud to announce a new partnership with Student Hero, South Africa's largest student finance facilitation service. Through this partnership, students in South Africa can now apply to have their CramEasy plan funded, making AI-powered study support accessible to more students who need it.
About Student Hero
Student Hero, part of the Herosphere alongside Study Loans 4U, has spent more than 10 years helping South African students access education funding. Students can learn about, apply for and pre-qualify for study funding from leading education finance providers, free of charge. Student Hero works with institutions across South Africa to make the path to funding simple and stress-free.
Why this partnership matters
Getting into a course is only the first step. Succeeding in it is what changes lives. Many students secure funding for their studies but still lack access to tutoring, revision support and exam practice.
CramEasy fills that gap. Students upload their own lecture notes, textbooks, slides or recordings, and CramEasy turns them into summaries, AI-graded quizzes, flashcards, mock exams, study plans and an interactive voice tutor. An offline version runs on supported phones with no internet or data, so learning continues anywhere.
By working together, Student Hero and CramEasy help students not only access their studies, but make the most of them.
How it works
- Apply through Student Hero. Students start their funding application through our dedicated Student Hero link.
- Get matched with a funder. Student Hero helps each student apply to a suitable funding provider.
- Funding is paid on the student's behalf. Once approved, the funding provider pays CramEasy directly.
- Start learning. CramEasy activates the student's access within two business days.
Applying through Student Hero is free, and funding decisions are made by the funding provider.
