Rental point of sale
A rental POS for the counter, not a retail till with dates added
The desk needs to take payment, hand over equipment, record a deposit and keep the item unavailable until it comes back. Rent in Hand keeps those actions on one rental record.

The counter work that belongs together
A rental sale has a return date, a condition, a deposit and an item that must not be promised twice.
-
Rental order at the till
Create the booking, add items, set dates and take payment without jumping to a second application.
-
Deposits on the transaction
Record the deposit separately from rental revenue and return or withhold it when the equipment comes back.
-
Contracts and signatures
Generate your agreement from the rental details and capture the customer's signature at handover.
-
Shift and cash-up
Open and close shifts, reconcile the till and see discrepancies while the transaction is still fresh.
-
Mobile counter
Use the mobile app for collections, deliveries and yard handovers when the customer is not standing at the desk.
-
Add-on sales
Put consumables, spares and accessories on the same order when your rental business also sells stock.
Handover
One checkout that understands equipment
A normal retail till can take money. A rental desk also needs to prove what left, when it is due back, which condition it left in and what happens if it returns damaged. Those details stay attached to the transaction.
- Item and customer on every rental
- Deposit and balance shown separately
- Signed agreement and condition evidence
- Payment history against the contract
Operations
Shift handover without the spreadsheet
Close the shift against the money actually taken, not against a number someone typed into a worksheet. The next person sees open rentals, outstanding balances and the current state of the till.
- Roles for discounts and refunds
- Cash reconciliation per shift
- Outstanding balances by customer
- Stock and rental revenue in one view
