Paid checkout availability
Paid rentals are available throughout BorrowHive's supported market. Owners can earn from lending their tools, or choose to offer them for free.
This information is general and is not legal or tax advice.
If the location or tax treatment still needs review, we show estimated Sales tax. That review does not make your rental free or turn off paid checkout.
Before you confirm, checkout shows the rental price, Sales tax, fees, and any separate refundable deposit hold.
What borrowers should expect
- Review the complete price and deposit terms before confirming payment.
- An owner may offer a free rental or a discount. The confirmation screen shows the resulting price.
- If we collect more Sales tax than is due, we refund the excess to your original payment method. A refund may take time to appear after it is issued.
- Your account and payment details must meet the normal verification requirements.
What owners should expect
You can set rental prices and receive earnings through BorrowHive after completing payout setup. Sales tax is separate from your earnings. A tax-only refund does not reduce your rental earnings.
Contact support if a payment or refund appears incorrect. Keep payments in BorrowHive so that the booking, tax, and refund records stay connected.
