AI listing from one photo in the app

How earning works

Use AI to create a listing from a single photo in the app, or list manually in minutes.

  1. 1

    Snap a photo

    Take one or more photos of your item. In the app, our AI fills in the title, description, category and a suggested price.

  2. 2

    Set your price

    Review the listing and set your own daily and weekly rates. You can change them at any time.

  3. 3

    Approve bookings

    See each renter’s profile, trust score and ID-verification status. Accept or decline — you stay in control of who rents your items.

  4. 4

    Get paid

    Your share transfers to your Stripe balance the moment you approve a booking, and Stripe pays it to your bank on its standard schedule. No chasing payments.

What you can list

If you own it and someone nearby could use it for a day, list it — it is free.

Note: vehicles and real estate listings are not permitted on Rentsome.

How payouts work

Funds transfer automatically through Stripe Connect. No invoices, no chasing.

  1. Step 1

    Booking approved

    The renter’s card is charged and your share transfers to your Stripe balance.

  2. Step 2

    Payout sent

    Stripe pays your balance to your bank daily, on its standard settlement timing.

  3. Step 3

    Item picked up

    The security deposit is held on the renter’s card.

  4. Step 4

    Item returned

    You have 72 hours to file a claim if needed.

Example

What a $40/day item earns

Rented 6 days in a month. Your actual results depend on your item, price and how often it is booked.

6 days × $40
$240.00
Platform fee (15%)
$36.00
Your payout
$204.00

Renters pay their own service fee and sales tax on top of your price — it is not deducted from your payout.

Stripe Connect powers all payouts

Connect your bank account in minutes. Your share moves to your Stripe balance when you approve a booking; Stripe then pays out daily on its standard US timing (about two business days), and some banks take an extra day or two to post it.

Built for trust

Protection for lenders

Several layers of protection so you can lend with confidence.

Deposit-backed bookings

Every rental is backed by a refundable security deposit, sized to your item. File a claim directly through the app if something goes wrong.

Secure deposits

Security deposits are held via Stripe before pickup and released automatically after a successful return.

Verified renters

Renters can verify their identity via Stripe Identity. Trust scores help you choose reliable people.

Private messaging

Coordinate pickup and return securely. Your personal contact info stays private throughout.

Two-way reviews

Both sides review each other after every rental. Build your reputation and attract the best renters.

Claims and mediation

If something goes wrong, file a claim within 72 hours of the return. Rentsome mediates disputes fairly.

Refer a friend

Their first rental is fee-free. You get $20.

Share your referral code from the Rentsome app. A friend who joins with it pays no service fee on their first rental, and when that rental completes you receive a $20 credit that is applied automatically to the service fee on your own bookings.

  • 1Open Referrals in the app and share your code.
  • 2They enter it when they join; their first booking skips the service fee.
  • 3Once it completes, $20 lands in your credit balance.
