10 Exciting Things About The New RentItems Platform

Did you know we now have a new version of our platform? We’re really excited about how many improvements and updates we’ve made to make it easier for both renters and owners to use.

Check out some of the new version features below… and don’t forget to sign up and list your items.

 

1. The Convenience of an App 

With our new version, RentItems is not only available through your browser, but can now be installed on your desktop or mobile phone as an app. It’s simple: just use the download button on our homepage. Once you’ve installed the app, this button won’t appear again.

 

2. A Better Way to Search & Filter

You can now sort and filter your search results by price, duration, location, and dates. You can also sort by highest to lowest price, lowest to highest price, ratings, and relevance. So it’s even easier to find what you want to rent.

 

3. Find What You Need Locally

We’ve also added a new map function so that when you’re searching, you can find items to rent on a map as well as in a list, to see how close they are to you.

4. Owner’s Dashboard & Order Management

If you’re an owner, you now have a really simple way to track and manage orders and see reports on how your items are doing and how often they’re getting rented.

5. It’s Easier to Share

We want you to make the most out of RentItems so we’ve made it even easier for owners to promote their items – and for renters to get more people involved. How? We’ve included a ‘Share’ button throughout the platform so you can spread the word on social media.

6. Any Problems? It’s Easy to Get in Touch

To make things safer and more streamlined, we’ve added a “Report Problem” button that can be used if you have any issues with a rental. Owners and renters can also message each other once a rental has been successfully processed.

7. An Improved Experience

Thanks to a complete overhaul, you’ll find the new RentItems platform is much more user-friendly and easy to navigate. We love to keep things simple!

8. Making Rental Safe & Simple

Our new version has an improved fulfillment process. You can take pictures at the start and end of the rental period after putting in a valid unique code that is passed between the renter and owner upon (delivery and/or pickup). Every time a rental is started and completed, both users and the item are authenticated. Plus, a review system that reviews the product and the user is triggered once the rental has been completed.

9. We’re Even Faster Now

Our new version is as fast and efficient as you are. We’ve improved our speed and load times and both owners and renters are really noticing the difference!

10. A Better Shopping Cart & Checkout Experience

If you’re a renter, you can now edit items in your cart even more easily, and we’ve made the checking out process faster and more simple too.
