Renterval » Local Rentals At Your Fingertips!

Renterval’s calendar makes it easy for merchants to tell their customers when a listing is unavailable.  Simply pick the times when you can’t (or won’t) sell your time, and customers are prevented from scheduling a listing during your “time off”.  Be careful, though.  The calendar interpretation of your input is very literal. Assume that you want to close your doors from 5pm to 8am the next day (sounds reasonable, right?). But, if you enter your time as unavailable, from 5pm to 8am every day, you’ll never sell a listing where the interval is 1 day (because a portion of every day will be blocked out).

A better way to tell your customers what your standard hours are is in your personal terms and conditions.

If you are unavailable at a given time on a recurring basis (daily, weekly, monthly), or if you are unavailable on weekends, simply use the repeating feature of the calendar.  If you don’t want to work weekends (who does?), simply set a weekly recurring unavailability for Saturday, and then do another for Sunday. But here’s one final reminder, in doing so, your customers won’t be able to rent a listing that spans a Saturday or Sunday.

Hope this gives you some ideas of how to make the most of Renterval.
