Inflatable and bounce house operators. Its plans are structured around inventory size, which fits a business whose growth is measured in units, and its tiers run from 10 items up to 250 and beyond. It is the established name in this specific niche and its site ranks first for the category.
Event Rental Systems

Rentopus
From $59 a month · Priced by: How many items you own · Free trial: 14 days, no card
Delivery led party and inflatable operators with roughly 15 to 200 items and one to four vehicles, where the daily problem is knowing what is genuinely free for a Saturday window and getting it there.

What each costs to run a delivery business
Monthly billing, in US dollars, before tax. Booqable is priced on the smallest plan with signed agreements and enough logins, plus its Deliveries add on for delivery fees and its website builder. Rentopus is priced on the plan for your item count, which includes both.
| Your business | Booqable | Rentopus |
|---|---|---|
| 20 items, 2 people logging in | Grow with Deliveries and the website builder, $120 a month | Starter, $59 a month |
| 60 items, 3 people logging in | Grow with Deliveries and the website builder, $120 a month | Pro, $129 a month |
| 150 items, 4 people logging in | Grow with Deliveries and the website builder, $120 a month | Unlimited, $199 a month |
| 150 items, 8 people logging in | Scale with Deliveries and the website builder, $220 a month | Unlimited, $199 a month |
| 300 items, 12 people logging in | More than 11 logins: a Custom plan through sales, starting at $349 a month | Unlimited, $199 a month |
Booqable costs less when you have more than 25 items and six people or fewer log in: by $9 a month from 26 to 100 items, and by $79 above 100. Rentopus costs less up to 25 items, and at every size once you need more than six logins. Keep your own website and Booqable's figure drops by $24, because its website integration is on every plan. Booqable's figure does not include route planning, which its pricing page does not list as a feature; the page lists OptimoRoute, Shipday and Spoke Dispatch integrations in beta on Grow and Scale, each requiring Deliveries, which this figure does not price. Every Rentopus plan includes route planning.
What a party rental company that delivers needs
Pickups and returns at a counter are one job. Driving a bounce house to a backyard, setting it up inside a window and collecting it that night is another. Each Booqable entry is quoted from its own website, linked in the sources below.
| What you need | Booqable | Rentopus |
|---|---|---|
| A booking website with online checkout | A ready made booking page and website integration on every plan. The website builder is an add on at $24 a month, $19 billed yearly. | Included on every plan, on your own domain if you like, or added to the website you already have |
| Time between rentals to clean and reload | Real time availability with buffer time between rentals, on every plan. Downtime scheduling for repairs from Grow. | A turnaround buffer on each item, so the next booking only sees it once it is back and ready |
| Delivery fees by distance | The Deliveries app, $9 a month on any plan: fixed or distance based delivery fees, a maximum delivery range, a minimum order and free delivery above an order size, applied at checkout. | Delivery zones with a free radius and a per mile rate from real road distance, on every plan. Out of area addresses and zone minimums are refused at checkout |
| Delivery and pickup windows | Delivery and pickup time windows are not listed on its pricing page or its Deliveries app page. | Worked out from the party times and your own rules: lead time, how far ahead people can book, and the longest rental |
| Routes for one truck or several | Route planning is not listed as a feature on its pricing page. The same page lists integrations with OptimoRoute, Shipday and Spoke Dispatch, marked beta, on Grow and Scale, each requiring the Deliveries app. With the Deliveries app, its mobile app opens a delivery address in Google Maps or Apple Maps. | Split the day into trucks, and put each truck's stops in the order that reaches every party inside its window |
| A driver app | Mobile point of sale, $12 a month per user, $9 billed yearly: orders on the go, notes, signatures in person and Tap to Pay. | Included for every driver: directions, a call button, what to unload or bring back, unsigned paperwork, any balance owed and photos of the set up or damage. The customer is told when the truck sets off |
| Pull sheets for loading | Packing slips to pull each order, and a report of every item going out for pickup or delivery, on every plan. | A pull sheet for each truck, in the order it drives, with the load held up against the truck's payload and cargo space |
| A damage waiver and a deposit | Security deposits per order on every plan, and per product from Grow. A damage waiver is not listed on its pricing page. | A damage waiver at your percentage, off, optional or required, and a deposit, both priced at checkout |
| The right surface for each unit | Not listed on its pricing page. | Each item lists the surfaces it sets up on, such as grass or concrete, and checkout refuses a mismatch with a clear message |
| Wind and storm warnings | Not listed on its pricing page. | Every morning the forecast for bookings in the next 3 days is checked against your limits, and the ones near or over them are flagged |
| A signed agreement and waiver | E-signatures on quotes and contracts from Grow, $87 a month or $69 billed yearly. Start has none. | Signed on the customer's phone at checkout, on every plan. A booking cannot be confirmed while a required document is unsigned |
| Staff and drivers with their own login | Start is for the owner alone. Grow adds 5 users with permissions and Scale adds 10. Above that, a Custom plan through sales starts at $349 a month with 20 extra users. | Unlimited users and drivers on every plan. Crew see the routes they drive and nothing else about the business |
When Booqable is the better choice
An honest comparison says where the other product fits better. Each of these comes from Booqable's own website.
- Your customers pick up and bring back what they rent, such as cameras, bikes, boats or trailers, on their own or next to party rentals. Booqable's site lists all of those industries, and Rentopus is built around delivery.
- You run several locations from one account. Booqable Scale adds them at $29 to $37 a month each; Rentopus does not offer it.
- You need an API, Zapier or Xero, or PayPal next to Stripe. Booqable offers them. Rentopus takes card payments through Stripe and has no public API.
- You work alone from a counter and need no signed agreement. Booqable Start is $35 a month, or $29 billed yearly, against $59 for Rentopus Starter.
- You have more than 25 items, six people or fewer log in, and you deliver without planning routes across trucks. Booqable with Deliveries and the website builder costs less, as the table above shows.
Moving from Booqable to Rentopus
Your catalog comes across from a spreadsheet. There is no Booqable preset in the Rentopus import yet, so it suggests where each column goes from the column's name and you confirm. Anything it cannot read is flagged before anything is saved.
- 1Export your inventory from Booqable. Its pricing page lists data exports on Grow and Scale, not on Start.
- 2Start the Rentopus free trial: 14 days, every feature, no card.
- 3Open Items, then Import from a file, and upload the export as a CSV or Excel file. Check each suggested column match and skip any column you do not need.
- 4Check the rows flagged for a look, such as a missing quantity or a price it could not read, then import. Add your delivery zones, connect Stripe for card payments and publish your booking website.
Questions
- What are the best Booqable alternatives?
- It depends on what you rent. For a party or inflatable rental company that delivers, Rentopus includes delivery zones, route planning, a driver app, damage waivers and surface checks on every plan, from $59 a month by item count. Goodshuffle Pro, TapGoods, InflatableOffice and Event Rental Systems also publish prices, side by side in our rental software comparison. If your customers pick up and return, Booqable may already be the right fit.
- Is Booqable legit?
- Yes. Booqable is an established rental software product with a public pricing page, a 14 day free trial and, on its own reviews page read on 2026-10-18, 1,193 reviews on Capterra averaging 4.8. Whether it fits is a separate question: it is built for many kinds of rental, and a party rental company that delivers should compare the delivery features in the table above.
- How much does Booqable cost?
- On its pricing page, read on 2026-10-18: Start is $35 a month, or $29 billed yearly, for the owner alone. Grow is $87, or $69, with 5 more users and e-signatures. Scale is $187, or $149, with 10 more users and multi location. Every plan has unlimited inventory. The website builder is $24 a month, the Deliveries app $9, and the mobile app $12 per user.
- Does Booqable handle deliveries?
- Yes, through its Deliveries app at $9 a month: fixed or distance based delivery fees, a maximum delivery range, a minimum order and free delivery above an order size, applied at checkout. Its mobile app opens the address in Google Maps or Apple Maps. Route planning across several trucks is not listed as a feature on its pricing page, read on 2026-10-18. The same page lists integrations with OptimoRoute, Shipday and Spoke Dispatch, marked beta, on Grow and Scale, each requiring the Deliveries app.
- What do Booqable reviews say?
- Booqable's own reviews page, read on 2026-10-18, shows 1,195 reviews on Capterra with an average rating of 4.8. We make a competing product, so we do not summarize its reviews ourselves. Read them on Capterra or G2, and look for reviews from rental companies that deliver, since that is where the two products differ most.
- Booqable vs Goodshuffle: which costs less?
- Both leave inventory unlimited and charge for people. Booqable is $35, $87 or $187 a month. Goodshuffle Pro is $39 for Lite and $139 for Standard, or $99 billed yearly, plus $49 a month for each extra dispatch vehicle ($39 billed yearly), as read on 18 October 2026. Goodshuffle Pro's Standard plan lists route dispatch. Booqable's pricing page does not list it as a feature, and lists OptimoRoute, Shipday and Spoke Dispatch integrations in beta on Grow and Scale, each requiring Deliveries. Rentopus charges by item count instead, at $59, $129 or $199.
- Can I move my inventory from Booqable to Rentopus?
- Yes, from a CSV or Excel file of up to 2,000 rows. There is no Booqable preset yet, so the import suggests where each column goes from its name and you confirm. Rows it cannot read, such as a price written as text, are flagged before anything is saved. Booqable's pricing page lists data exports on its Grow and Scale plans.
- Is there a free trial or a contract?
- Rentopus has a 14 day free trial with every feature and no card, and plans renew monthly or yearly with no minimum term. You can cancel at any time from Billing and download all your data whenever you want. Booqable's pricing page also states a 14 day free trial.
