WordPress / WooCommerce Rentals & Bookings
A complete WooCommerce rental and booking system: hourly and daily bookings, rental inventory management with check-out and check-in, seasonal pricing, and rental agreements signed online. It works equally well as a WordPress rental plugin for equipment hire, vehicles, events or clothing. You get the full source code and host it wherever you like.
Rental inventory management that booking plugins don’t do
Most booking plugins stop at taking a reservation. This WooCommerce rental plugin handles the warehouse work too: stock counts, turnaround time, check-in and check-out.
Rental inventory management, tracked by day and hour
A monthly grid shows availability for up to 100 products at once, so you can spot a shortage before a customer finds it. Send and return move stock in and out, including early sends and early returns.
- ✓Send & return tracking with full history
- ✓Hourly / time-of-day inventory tracking
- ✓Turnover buffers so gear isn’t rebooked before it is back
Every rental order on one calendar
See pick-ups, returns and overdue items in a single admin view, with rental dates on the WooCommerce order grid. Sync to Google, Apple or Outlook by ICS, and share each product’s availability with Airbnb or Booking.com over iCal.
- ✓Orders by date on a calendar
- ✓Rental dates on the order grid
- ✓Shipped, returned, reminder and overdue emails
- ✓Pickup, return and overdue reminders by SMS or WhatsApp
Serial numbers, barcodes and signed contracts
Track individual units in WooCommerce by serial, RFID or QR code, with a rental history for each unit. On Pro, customers sign your agreement at checkout and the PDF is filed against the order.
- ✓Serial number tracking (RFID / QR codes)
- ✓Support for bundles / composite products
- ✓Rental contract PDF generation & online signing

View industry ›Get More With Pro
Three plugins for legally binding rental contracts signed at checkout, recurring subscription billing with memberships and a rental queue, and the custom fields, damage waiver and ID checks a rental counter runs on.
Rental Contract PDF Generation & Online Signing
Have customers sign your rental agreement, waiver, or lease during WooCommerce checkout. No separate document exchange or paperwork to chase.
- ✓ Typed, touch, or mouse signatures — works on a phone, tablet, laptop, or in-store kiosk
- ✓ Contract terms edited in the admin panel, with variables that insert the customer name and rental details
- ✓ A signed PDF is generated and stored against the order for audits, disputes, and reprints
- ✓ Extendable terms & conditions fields for waivers, damage policies, and insurance acknowledgements
- ✓ Pairs with Pro security deposits and custom checkout fields
Subscriptions, Memberships & Rental Queue
Turn one-off rentals into predictable recurring revenue with automated billing and VIP tiers. Add a Netflix-style queue to the store you already run.
- ✓ Recurring billing on custom intervals — every X days, weeks, months, or years — plus free trials and one-time signup fees
- ✓ Rental queue with automatic dispatch: a return triggers the next queued item, with per-tier checked-out limits
- ✓ Membership tiers with a monthly store-credit allowance and a limit on items out at a time
- ✓ Booking calendar syncs to the billing cycle, so inventory never releases before a renewal is approved
- ✓ Stripe, PayPal, and Braintree with card retries — plus manual B2B invoice, wire, cash, and check
- ✓ Self-service subscriber portal: pause, resume, cancel or change the payment card without a support ticket
- ✓ Full barcode and serial-number scan in / scan out with real-time subscription reporting in wp-admin
Custom Fields, Damage Waiver & ID Verification
In WooCommerce, ask the questions a handover depends on, charge for the extras customers choose, collect a damage waiver that gets paid, and see a driving licence before the keys leave the counter.
- ✓ 19 field types on the checkout, the product page, the registration form or My Account — with conditional logic
- ✓ Priced fields turn questions into upsells — a second driver, a child seat, reduced excess — charged as a cart fee
- ✓ Product page questions belong to the cart line, so two of the same item can carry different custom fields data
- ✓ Damage waiver, fixed or percentage, per item or per order, with per-product overrides and a recorded decline
- ✓ Passport and licence upload with a review queue, stored outside the media library and purged on a schedule
Contract signing ships with the Pro license. The subscription, membership, and queue suite installs on top of any WooCommerce Bookings & Tours store. No re-platforming required.
Pro costs $100 more than Regular and includes $796 of add-ons
Every add-on below can be bought on its own for the price shown. Bought separately, the same set costs $995. Pro is $299.
Prices are the checkout price with code 200pro on Pro and 150regular on Regular. Add-ons are listed at their own full price. Support and updates are included for the first year on every licence and renew at $199/year ($299/year for Multi Location Inventory) if you want them.

How does WooCommerce compare to Adobe Commerce / Magento 2?
Both platforms are powerful shopping carts and content management systems. Smaller businesses generally choose WordPress / WooCommerce. Adobe Commerce / Magento 2 usually suits medium to larger businesses. It is more powerful, but costs more to host and customize.
What does it mean that it’s open source, how do I benefit?
You can modify all the source code used for the rental system. You have no vendor tie-in. Many E-commerce platforms charge a monthly fee without giving you access to your site’s source code. You don’t own the system, and you have no control over rate increases. With this open source WordPress / WooCommerce software, you own your complete rental system and shopping cart.
- ✓Custom features and rental software development available
- ✓API integration, calendar syncs, ERP integration, new features
- ✓All data stays on your server, hosted wherever you prefer

A complete WooCommerce rental & booking system
People search for this in a dozen different ways: a WooCommerce rental plugin, a WordPress rental booking plugin, a WooCommerce rental and booking system, an equipment rental plugin. They describe the same job: let customers pick real dates, check what’s available, take payment, and track the item out and back. Here, that is one system. You don’t need a base plugin plus four paid add-ons.
As an equipment rental plugin
Track individual units with serial numbers and barcodes, record condition notes on return, and take refundable security deposits. Turnaround time keeps a tool that came back Friday from being promised out again Friday afternoon.
As a WordPress rental booking plugin
Put a live availability calendar on the product page of your own WordPress site, using your theme and payment gateway. No redirect to a third-party booking page and no per-booking commission.
As a quantity rental system
Two hundred chairs, forty tables, sixty life jackets. Stock is held as a real count and drawn down per date, so bulk party, event and hire businesses cannot oversell a Saturday.
The same rental engine also runs on Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce if that is your platform, and the whole thing is open source rental software you host and own outright.
A rental plugin is not a booking plugin
Confusing the two is the single most expensive mistake rental businesses make when choosing WooCommerce software. Booking plugins sell time: an appointment, a table, a class. With rental, a physical thing leaves your premises and has to come back, be cleaned, be checked and go out again. Almost everything that makes rental hard comes from that difference.
| What rental actually requires | A generic booking plugin | Sales Igniter Bookings & Tours |
|---|---|---|
| Same item out and back, over and over | Sells a slot in a diary | Tracks a physical asset through its whole life |
| Availability for a date range | Usually a single date or time slot | Start date, end date, and everything blocked between |
| Turnaround time between hires | Rarely supported | Buffer days or hours before and after every booking |
| Quantity vs serial tracking | A stock number, if anything | 250 chairs by quantity, or each camera by serial and barcode |
| Prices by duration | Flat price per booking | Hour, day, week, month or year, with seasonal rates |
| Refundable security deposits | Not typically | Charged at checkout, refunded in full or in part after the return |
| Signed hire agreements | No | PDF contract generated and signed at checkout |
| Check-out and check-in | No | Barcode scan out and back, with filterable history per order and product |
| Late returns and damage | No concept of it | Late fees and damage charges, from the deposit, the saved card or a pay link |
If you have tried to make an appointment plugin behave like a rental system, you will recognise every row in that table. Sales Igniter was written for the right-hand column from the beginning. See the full feature list or book something in the live demo.
Own it instead of renting it
Nearly every rental platform on the market is a subscription. You pay every month forever. The software runs on their servers, with your customers and orders in their database. This WooCommerce plugin is a one-time purchase that installs into a store you already own, with the complete source code included.
| Option | Five-year total | Pricing model |
|---|---|---|
| Sales Igniter — Regular | $995 | $199 once, then $199/year for support and updates |
| Sales Igniter — Pro, renewed yearly | $1,095 | $299 once, then $199/year optional support and updates |
| Booqable Grow | $4,140 | $69/month billed annually, before add-ons |

WooCommerce booking plugin or WooCommerce rental plugin?
The terms get used interchangeably, but they solve different problems. If you rent physical stock that comes back and are searching for a WooCommerce booking plugin, that distinction will decide whether the software works for you in month three.
A standard WordPress booking plugin sells a calendar slot for an appointment, a table or a class. Once the slot passes, nothing needs to come back. There is no stock to count or inspect, and no gap needed before the next customer.
A WooCommerce rental plugin has to know that unit 3 of 5 is out until Thursday, needs turnaround time before it can go out again, and has a deposit held against it. That is inventory tracked over time.
This WordPress rental plugin includes a booking calendar and availability, plus per-day and per-hour stock tracking, turnaround buffers, serial numbers, refundable deposits and signed rental agreements. Use it to book tours and appointments or rent out your stock.
Weighing the options up side by side? The WooCommerce rental plugin comparison chart scores Sales Igniter, WooCommerce Bookings, YITH Booking, Tyche and RnB row by row on the rental features above, with every competitor cell read from that vendor’s own documentation.
