The Scalendo Rentals pricing system features dynamic rate adjustments based on multiple conditions. Each listing comprises three main pricing components: base price, optional security deposit, and advanced pricing rules.
"Defines the default amount charged for the rental period" based on the booking unit (Hour, Day, Week, or Month). A $50/hour listing booked for 4 hours costs $200 before adjustments.
Optional charge enabled through Global Settings under Calendar Settings > Rentals > Global Settings > Payment Settings. "The deposit amount does not affect the base price; it displays separately on invoices and checkout summaries."
Five rule types allow conditional pricing adjustments:
1. Seasonal Pricing
Two modes available:
2. Day of Week Pricing
"Adjust pricing based on the day of the week" with unique percentage adjustments per day (e.g., Saturday +10%, Sunday -15%).
3. Hour of Day Pricing
"Modify prices based on the time of day" for surge pricing. "Hour-of-day pricing applies only when your listing's Booking Unit is set to Hourly."
4. Duration Discounts
Reward longer bookings using tier-based thresholds. "The highest tier reached determines the discount." Entries as positive values reduce the final price.
5. Quantity Discounts
