From signup to your first booking

Getting live doesn't take a project plan. Here's the whole path from a blank account to a customer requesting a reservation on your site.

1. Build your catalog

In the dashboard, add each item you rent with photos, a short description, and specs that matter for your gear (weight capacity, brand, dimensions — whatever fits). Group items into categories so customers can browse. For each item, set your rates: a daily price, and optionally weekly and monthly tiers. Customers are always quoted the cheapest combination automatically.

Every product is made of individual units — the actual physical items you own. That's what powers availability: if you have three of something and two are booked for a weekend, the widget shows one left and refuses a fourth booking.

2. Set your rules

Decide whether you offer pickup, delivery, or both, and what a delivery costs. Choose your scheduling style — exact times, time windows, or dates only. Turn on a deposit if you take one, and pick how it works (more on that in the payments post).

3. Brand the widget

In Appearance, set your colors, corner radius, font size, and layout, and upload your logo. A live preview shows exactly what customers will see. The goal is that the booking widget feels native to your site, not bolted on.

4. Paste one line of code

Copy the embed snippet from the dashboard and drop it onto your website — WordPress, Squarespace, Wix, or hand-coded, it's the same one line. Your catalog and booking flow appear instantly.

5. Take the reservation

Customers pick an item and dates, see the price and availability, fill in their details, and submit a request. It lands in your dashboard as a pending reservation. You review it, approve it, and follow up with payment — on your terms. Nothing is charged automatically without your say-so.
