Getting started
Your first day with NURISTAY, step by step – about an hour. The same checklist is at the top of your Today page and ticks itself off as you go.
Log in
Set your password
Open the welcome email from NURISTAY and press the link to set your password (it works once, for 7 days). Your username is in the same email.
Log in and choose your PIN
Log in on your property’s own login page – the address is in the email, e.g. app.nuristay.co.nz/login/your-property-name/. The first time, you choose a 6-digit PIN: from then on you use your password and PIN.
Use it like an app
Open your menu (your name, top right) and choose Use NURISTAY on this device: on a PC, install it from Edge or Chrome; on a phone, add it to your home screen.
Set up your property
Go through these in order. Each one ticks itself off on Getting started (on Today and on the Property page) once it’s done.
