Lumora Book&Rent

Run your rental business on a platform that is yours.

Lumora Book&Rent brings inventory, availability, orders, payments and documents together with a customer-facing rental website. Customers pick dates, see what is available and book online; your team prepares, hands over and takes back the items from the same system. Because you own the platform instead of renting a store on someone else's, you set your own business rules, design your own website and configure the system around the way your business works.

Why teams choose it

  • Your rental business does not depend on another company's store platform, plan limits or roadmap.
  • The system follows your way of working instead of forcing you into a preset one.
  • Customers book on a website that looks and reads like your brand.

What problems does Book&Rent solve?

  • Hosted rental software means a monthly bill and a store that lives on someone else's platform. Lumora Book&Rent is a platform you own. The website, the data and the configuration are yours.
  • Hosted store builders decide which rules and checkout steps you can have. You define your own pricing structures, rental periods, deposits, lead times and booking rules.
  • The same item gets booked twice because availability is tracked in spreadsheets. Availability is calculated from stock and existing orders and updates as bookings are made, online or by staff.
  • The rental website looks like every other store built from the same template. You design your own customer-facing website, with your branding, pages and domain.

Business rules you design yourself

Pricing structures, rental periods, deposits, taxes, opening hours, lead times and booking conditions are all configurable to match how your business operates.

A customer-facing website you design
