On a website built in Papalocal, every rental you keep gets a product page of its own. They're under Each rental in the editor. Each shows the item's name and words, its picture and its price, from your rental items. A Check availability button sits beside the price. Moving, hiding and styles change all of them at once.

0:26Change them together. Moving, hiding and styles change all 25 pages at once. Words can be written for all of them, or for just one.
Good to know
Nothing to make by hand. Every rental you keep in Papalocal gets its page. The price and picture come from the item itself.
No online booking yet? Then the button asks about the rental instead of checking availability, and a Call button sits beside it.
Search engines can read the price. Once your website is public, a page with a price carries the item's name and price as product markup. That's the form search engines read.
The prices in the video are made up, as the video says, and so is Pinewood Party Rentals.

Your rental pages are one part of running your rental company on Papalocal.
The everything app. As simple as you want it, or as complete as you allow it to be.
Each rental's page reads from the same items you take bookings with.
The plan holds, in one place:
Your customer list: each lead and customer, with their quotes and jobs on one page
Quotes, jobs and schedule
Invoices and pay links
Your website, on a domain you own
Google Business Profile sync, for your first location
Reviews: links, QR codes and an embed
Time clock, team chat and training
The same account holds your own side too: music, books, messages, your money and your people. Some of it has paid upgrades.
Free to sign up, no card. Your account and your business page have no monthly charge. One thing is on from the start: AI replies to your reviews, $0.15 each plus AI usage. You can pause them.
Once you turn the plan on: $30 a month (one person; each added employee is $10 a month), plus 1.25% of payments your customers make through Papalocal, plus Stripe's processing fee. It's billed daily from a prepaid balance. Once your card is saved, it's charged a top-up within the hour, and again each time the balance falls under a month's charges plus 15%. You choose the top-up amount ($25 or more; $100 until you change it). You can cancel the plan online after its first 30 days; cancel any add-ons on it first.
