Simple, transparent pricing

No monthly fees, no hidden charges. You only pay when you book.

How it works

For borrowers

15%

Borrowers pay the lender's listed price plus a 15% service fee, minimum €2.50 per booking. This pays for payment processing, the Nearby Guarantee, customer support, and platform operations. The total is shown before you confirm your booking.

Some higher-value categories such as cameras and drones have a 25% service fee.

For lenders

85%

Lenders keep 85% of their listed price. There are no listing fees, no monthly subscriptions, and no upfront costs. You set your price, we handle payments and the Nearby Guarantee. Your earnings reach your Stripe account when the borrower pays, and Stripe pays them to your bank on your payout schedule.

Example booking

A pressure washer listed at €35 a day for 3 days:

Rental (3 days x €35)€105.00
Service fee (15%)€15.75
Nearby GuaranteeFree
Borrower pays€120.75
Lender receives (85%)€89.25

Weekly discount

Lenders can choose to offer a weekly discount on bookings of 7 days or more, and set how much it is. If a listing has one, you'll see it on the listing and it's applied automatically at checkout: each full week is charged at the weekly rate, and any extra days at the daily price.

Guarantee

Nearby Guarantee, free with every booking

The same for every rental - no paid tiers, no add-on at checkout. If the rented item is accidentally damaged or stolen during the rental period, Nearby may make a goodwill payment to the lender of up to €2,000 per item, at its discretion.
