★ $9 / month + 1¢ per booking

Rental booking software for $9/month

Everything a small rental business needs to take bookings online — availability by date, deposits and a rental-policy agreement at checkout — for the price of a coffee a week.

14-day free trial · no card required · no cut of your bookings

Booking in the DMs doesn't scale. If you're juggling availability in your head and sending quotes over text, you're losing bookings to whoever answers first and risking a double-booked date. Rental booking software replaces that with a real page: it shows what's free, takes the request, and captures the deposit — automatically, 24/7, whether you're awake or not.

What rental booking software is

Rental booking software is different from a general scheduling or appointment tool because it has to solve a harder problem: finite inventory. A hair salon booking app just needs to know if a time slot is open. A rental business needs to know if a specific quantity of a specific item is free for a range of dates — six chairs from Friday through Sunday, one generator for two weeks, three bounce houses on a Saturday in June. Rennt is built around that problem: you tell it what you own and how many, and it does the subtraction automatically every time a booking is confirmed, so you never sell the same unit twice.

Who uses rental booking software

It applies to any business that rents by the day, weekend, or week rather than selling outright — party and event rental companies (tents, tables, chairs, linens, bounce houses), equipment and tool rental yards, AV and staging rental businesses, photo booth and specialty-item rentals, and formalwear or costume rental shops. If customers currently ask "is this available on the 14th?" over text or the phone, that question is exactly what this software answers automatically.

What's included

Pricing, spelled out

Rennt is a flat $9/month (Starter) or $29/month (Pro), plus 1¢ per booking — a dollar for every 100 bookings. No setup fee, no contract, no cut of your sales, cancel anytime. A shop taking 60 bookings a month pays $9.60 total. At 400 bookings a month, that's $13. Because it's a flat fee plus a penny — not a percentage — a $3,000 wedding-tent booking costs exactly as much as a $40 chair rental: one cent. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, no card required. Full breakdown on the pricing page.

How it compares to other rental booking software

Booqable, Goodshuffle Pro, TapGoods, and InflatableOffice are the established names in this space, generally starting somewhere between $39 and $399 a month depending on plan. They tend to carry more built-in enterprise features — multi-location logistics, deeper accounting integrations — which larger operations need and smaller ones often pay for without using. Rennt focuses on what most small-to-mid rental businesses actually need to stop losing bookings to phone tag: a branded storefront, real availability, deposits, and a signed agreement, live the same day.

Real scenarios

The party rental company juggling a group text. Once bookings move to a real calendar, a customer requesting a tent that's already reserved for their date simply can't submit the request — the double-booking problem disappears on its own. Run the numbers for an inflatables business with the bounce house ROI calculator.

The shop that under- or over-charges for delivery. Guessing delivery cost by gut feel either scares off nearby customers with a flat high fee or eats your margin on far-away jobs. The delivery fee calculator helps you set a base fee, per-mile rate, and free radius that actually pencil out.

The business that keeps chasing signed agreements. When the rental policy signature happens at checkout instead of at delivery, there's no morning-of scramble to get a customer to sign before the truck leaves.

Frequently asked questions

What is rental booking software?

Software that lets rental businesses show real, quantity-based availability online and take booking requests, deposits, and signed agreements automatically — instead of managing availability by phone or text.

How much does Rennt cost?

A flat $9/month (Starter) or $29/month (Pro), plus 1¢ per booking — $1 for every 100 bookings. No commission, no setup fee, no contract. Full details on the pricing page.

Does it actually track inventory, or just take requests?

It tracks real quantities. You set how many of each item you own, and every confirmed booking subtracts from that count for its dates, so the same unit can't be double-booked.

Do I have to accept credit cards?

No. Rennt is cash-first — start by taking cash or check on delivery, and connect your own Stripe account whenever you want to accept cards. The money goes straight to your bank.

Can customers sign a rental agreement online?

Yes — the checkout captures a typed legal name and a drawn signature alongside any deposit or damage waiver, so the agreement is done before the booking is confirmed.

How is this different from Booqable, Goodshuffle Pro, TapGoods, or InflatableOffice?

Those platforms typically start between $39 and $399 a month with more enterprise-oriented features. Rennt covers the core most rental businesses need — availability, deposits, a signed agreement, delivery pricing — for a flat $9 or $29 a month plus a penny per booking. See the full comparison.

How fast can I go live?

The same day. Add your inventory, set your prices and deposits, and share your booking link — most owners are live in under 15 minutes.

Is there a free trial?

Yes — 14 days free, no card required to start.
