Rentals for Flexible Multi-Day Bookings

SMBcrm now includes Rentals in Calendars for businesses that manage bookable inventory such as equipment, vehicles, spaces, vacation properties, and event setups.

Unlike standard appointment scheduling, Rentals is designed for duration-based bookings with inventory controls, flexible pricing, and support for multiple items in one checkout.

What Rentals Includes

Customizable listings with inventory and variants

You can create rental listings and configure details such as:

• Pricing by hour, day, week, or month
• Quantity tracking
• Variants such as size, type, or configuration
• Lead time, buffer time, and booking window rules

Inventory tracking and availability control

Rentals checks availability across selected dates, prevents overbooking, and blocks unavailable inventory automatically.

Flexible pricing models

Supported pricing options include:

• Tiered pricing by duration or quantity
• Seasonal pricing
• Day-based pricing
• Security deposits

Flexible booking types

You can choose the booking style that fits your business model:

• Date and time selection for hourly or short-term rentals
• Date-only selection for day-based or night-based rentals
• Fixed-duration bookings for predefined packages such as 3-day or 5-day bundles

Each listing can have its own booking behavior.

Multi-item bookings

Customers can book multiple rental listings in a single checkout, which is useful for bundles, event setups, or combined equipment rentals.

Customer booking page

Rentals includes a customizable public booking page that can:

• Display listings and categories
• Show real-time availability
• Provide a smoother booking experience for customers

Booking management and calendar view

Rentals also includes tools for managing bookings inside the platform. You can:

• Create bookings manually in the app
• Add multiple listings to one booking
• Modify dates, duration, quantity, or pricing
• Automatically generate invoices for each booking
• Collect payments in the app
• Track statuses such as Booked, Active, and Completed
• Manage bookings from the appointments list or calendar view

A dedicated Rentals calendar view lets you see bookings across listings in one place, review color-coded statuses, apply filters, and open booking details directly from the calendar.
