Trailer rental
Ask a trailer rental operator what breaks and the answer is never the booking form. The constraint here is hitch and tow-rating fit confirmed before the customer drives over.
NO MONTHLY FEE · 4.5% AT CHECKOUT · PAID BY YOUR CUSTOMER
Fit decides everything. Ball size, tongue weight, wiring connector and the tow rating of whatever the customer is driving all have to line up, so the booking has to ask about the towing vehicle rather than only the trailer.
Road-legal checks belong to the unit: lights, tyres, straps and plate. Those carry inspection dates that make a trailer unavailable wherever it is parked.
A trailer spends its hire detached from anything you can see. A tracker on the frame is how an operator knows which yard it is sitting in and whether it has crossed a boundary the hire never covered.
What the platform does here is narrow and specific. An option at checkout that lets a guest protect their booking, which softens the revenue hit when a cancellation lands late.
The problem it removes: the choice between refunding a guest you want back and keeping money for a slot you cannot re-sell. The number to watch is revenue retained on cancellations inside the notice window.
The guest sees the option at checkout and decides. Taking it puts a protected status on the reservation, which changes what happens when a cancellation arrives inside your notice window.
Guest pays$235.13
Payout$225.00
The fee is added at checkout and paid by your customer, so the payout is your list price.
Bodhisys charges no monthly fee. The platform takes 4.5%, added to each reservation and paid by your customer rather than by you.
Bodhisys is rental operations software for companies that rent things, vehicles and experiences. It was built for rental inventory rather than adapted from a ticketing system, and it has been in market since 2023.
For trailer rental companies, an option at checkout that lets a guest protect their booking, which softens the revenue hit when a cancellation lands late.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Bodhisys is younger than FareHarbor and Peek Pro and has a smaller install base. An operator whose revenue is mostly timed tours, or who needs a long list of third-party integrations today, is better served by an incumbent.
A tour flow sells a seat at a time. A rental flow has to capture what leaves, where it goes, when it comes back and who is responsible for it in between.
There is no monthly fee. A 4.5% charge is added to each reservation and paid by your customer at checkout.
Yes. Customers, future reservations and booking history migrate from FareHarbor, Peek Pro and Bike Rental Manager.
