Landing Platform vs Booqable: rentals plus the whole business
Booqable runs the rental counter. Landing runs rentals by the day or night, with deposits and a hire agreement signed at checkout, and puts every booking on a customer your sales, marketing and support teams already share.
Landing suits you if
- You hire out kit, vehicles or spaces and sell other things too
- You want deposits, balances and signed agreements handled at checkout
- You want the CRM, email and helpdesk on the same customer record
Where the rental tool runs out.
Booqable keeps the bookings straight. The rest of the business lives somewhere else.
The customer is in two places
Booqable keeps a customer database for rentals, and your email list, quotes and support inbox keep their own copies somewhere else.
Add-ons stack up
The website builder, mobile point of sale, barcode scanning and extra locations are each listed as a monthly add-on.
Marketing is a hand-off
Email marketing arrives through a Mailchimp connection, so the list that sells your next hire sits in another tool with its own bill.

Switching is our job, not yours.
We move you over one tool a month, against success criteria we agree with you up front. You don't pay until we prove each one is ready.
We map your hire business
Show us your Booqable setup: products, rates, deposits and the tools around it. We agree what moves and what "ready" means before you commit.
We move Booqable across
We move your data as part of the switch: products and rates, customers and their rental history, and upcoming bookings. We check every future hire is on the calendar before you switch off.
You sign it off
Billing starts only when we have shown it works against the criteria you set. Then we move the next tool, one a month.
But we already use Booqable.
Fair. Here are the questions hire businesses ask us most.
Does Landing handle deposits the way a hire business needs?
Yes, and it keeps them apart. A booking deposit is a part-payment of the hire. A security deposit is a refundable hold on the customer's card against damage, never counted as revenue. The balance is charged to the saved card a set number of days before pickup, or marked paid at handover.
Can customers sign the hire agreement online?
Yes, at checkout. The reserve button stays locked until the agreement is signed, the exact wording is fingerprinted when they sign, and the signed copy sits on the booking and the customer record.
What stops two people booking the same item?
Each checkout places a short hold on the dates while the customer pays, and each hire blocks the turnaround days you set. If you stock several of one item, Landing counts how many are out at once.
Sending hire invoices by hand?
