How it works
Booqable hosts a basic online store for your rental business, so you can try online reservations without installing anything on your website. If you don't have a website, you can use the hosted store to accept online reservations.

The components that will appear on the online store is as follows.
1. Embeddable products
Booqable creates embed codes to easily add product cards, buttons, or lists of products on your website.
You can also embed lists of products (or products which have a certain tag). Real-time product pricing and availability are displayed automatically.
2. Shopping cart
The shopping cart fits beautifully with any theme and is customizable to fit your business. Change colors, texts and use it to take reservations or quotes.

4. Secure checkout
A securely hosted checkout with support for coupon codes and integrated payment processing.
As your customers check out their orders, they appear in Booqable automatically.
