How bRent Works
A simple, safe, and reliable way to borrow what you need for your next project, trip, or event.
Find It
Search for items nearby. See prices, availability, and real photos from local lenders.
Reserve It
Request dates and pay securely. Payments are held in escrow until the item is returned.
Meet Up
Chat in the app to schedule a pickup. Take condition photos, use the item, and return it.
Rent anything you need
Why buy something you'll only use once? Borrow it for a fraction of the cost.
Built for Peace of Mind
We designed bRent to protect both your gear and your wallet on every single transaction.
Secure Escrow Payments
Borrowers pay upfront via Stripe. We hold the funds securely and automatically process payouts to the lender after a successful return.
Security Deposits
High-value items require a security deposit authorization, ensuring lenders are protected against accidental damage.
Condition Photos
Both parties upload required condition photos at pickup and return, establishing a clear, indisputable record of the item's state.
Liability Waivers
Renting power tools or high-risk gear? bRent automatically generates digital liability waivers that borrowers must sign before pickup.
Got gear collecting dust?
Turn your garage into a passive income stream. List your tools, outdoor gear, and electronics to start earning money from your neighbors.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is it free to list my items?
Yes! It is completely free to list your items on bRent. We only charge a small platform fee to the borrower when a transaction occurs to cover payment processing and platform maintenance.
What happens if my item gets damaged?
We require security deposits for high-value items and mandatory condition photos at both pickup and return. In the rare event of damage, the security deposit is captured to help cover repair or replacement costs.
How do I get paid as a lender?
bRent partners with Stripe Connect for secure payouts. Once a rental is complete, the funds are automatically deposited directly into your linked bank account.
Can local businesses use bRent?
Absolutely. bRent supports "Business Accounts" designed for local rental shops. You can upload custom liability waivers, manage multiple listings, and let customers browse your inventory and reserve from their phones.
