Maximum Rental Period (mins)

If you want to restrict the maximum amount of time that a customer can rent an item from you, then set this value. Most organisations don't tend to set this but if you are predominantly a day hire business, you may wish to preclude over night rentals, for example, and this is a way to achieve this.

Rental Deposit Percentage (%)

The percentage of the total rental the customer is required to pay at online checkout time.
The value can be anything from 0-100 depending on your business model. If you are using Stripe as a credit card vault, then set this value to 0. If you require full payment for a booking then set the value to 100. If the number is not set to 100, the customer can pay the remainder in store when they collect the rental items.

Default Value : 100%

Primary Color (optional)

The main color of the online booking can be set here. The default value is a blue with a hex value of #3d5afe. You can choose any valid html color definition.
