For rental businesses

    Equipment Rental Software

    Rent by the hour, day, or night with real inventory counts and turnover time built in.

    No monthly platform fee — a 1.5% online booking fee on online bookings.

    What breaks first for rental businesses

    Overbooking happens because the calendar counts bookings, not units.

    Cleaning and prep time between rentals is invisible to the booking flow.

    Damage deposits are collected in cash or not at all.

    Built for how rental businesses actually operate

    Unit-level inventory

    Every unit is tracked individually, so availability is the real count of what is on the shelf.

    Turnover and prep buffers

    Reserve cleaning and inspection time after each rental so the next booking cannot land on top of it.

    Card holds for deposits

    Authorise a security deposit at booking and release or capture it when the gear comes back.

    Everything else that comes with it

    Real-time availability everywhere

    Website widget, phone bookings, kiosk, and partner channels all read and write the same live inventory.

    Payments without an OTA cut

    Take cards directly through Stripe at a 1.5% online booking fee. No per-booking commission on direct sales.

    Digital waivers included

    Waiver Hog waivers are built in, sent with confirmations, and tracked per guest on the manifest.

    Automated guest messaging

    Confirmations, reminders, follow-ups, and review requests fire automatically by email and SMS.

    Staff scheduling and manifests

    Assign staff, publish shifts, and hand every team member a live manifest on their phone.

    Reporting you can act on

    Revenue, occupancy, channel mix, and refunds in one place, exportable whenever you need it.

    Equipment Rental Software: common questions

    What is equipment rental software?

    It is a system that publishes rental availability online, tracks each unit's inventory and turnover time, takes payment and deposits, and manages pickup and return.

    Can I hold a security deposit?

    Yes. Card holds authorise a deposit at booking and can be released or captured after the return.

    How much does Booking Hog cost?

    Booking Hog charges a 1.5% online booking fee on online bookings. There is no monthly platform fee and no OTA-style commission on your direct sales.

    Can I take bookings on my own website?

    Yes. An embeddable widget drops the full booking flow into any website, and a hosted storefront is available if you do not have one.

    How long does setup take?

    Most operators are live in a day. You build your products, set availability rules, connect Stripe, and paste in the widget.
