Manage Vehicle Rentals in WordPress
VikRentCar Pro is a vehicle rental management system for WordPress websites. It is designed for businesses renting cars, scooters, motorbikes, boats, or other vehicles, with tools for organizing vehicles, pricing, availability, reservations, customers, and the booking process.
The plugin can be used with a car rental theme or another WordPress theme. Its front-end booking process is customizable, while the back end provides management functions for rental orders, vehicles, rates, customers, and reporting. The system also provides multiple front-end views and shortcode options for placing rental content on site pages.
Rates, Availability, and Restrictions
VikRentCar Pro supports flexible pricing based on different rental models. Custom rate plans can be used for refundable, flexible, and non-refundable rates, as well as insurance and damage waiver options.
- Manage seasonal pricing with a seasonal rates calendar.
- Modify seasonal rates from the calendar with one click.
- Set minimum and maximum rental durations.
- Define which weekdays are available for pickup and drop-off.
- Review availability through monthly calendars.
- Review pricing through a pricing calendar overview.
These tools help rental operators organize different pricing periods and booking conditions from the administration area. Vehicle management also includes functions for handling vehicles and their distinctive sub-units.
Booking Options and Customer Details
Rental orders can include options and extra services, allowing additional selections to be added to a reservation. The Pro edition can also apply fees for out-of-hours times and for certain combinations of locations.
Custom fields can be used to request specific billing information from customers. A customer management window provides a dedicated place for working with customer records connected to the rental operation.
Payments and Promotions
VikRentCar Pro supports custom payment methods, including real bank gateways for accepting credit cards. Coupon codes can be created to apply discounts to rental orders. Together with custom rate plans, extras, fees, and location combinations, these tools support a booking workflow with more detailed pricing and payment choices.
Administration and Reporting
The back-end section brings operational information into one management area. Rental orders, vehicles, customers, availability, and pricing can be reviewed as part of the administration workflow. Graphs and statistics provide visual information about rental orders, helping administrators examine booking activity.
The plugin includes built-in translation functions for multilingual websites. On the front end, it offers eight different views and seven types of shortcode for adding rental features to pages. This supports different page layouts while keeping the booking process connected to the management system.
Practical Use Cases
- Car rental businesses: Manage vehicles, rates, reservations, and customer information.
- Two-wheel rental services: Organize scooter and motorbike bookings with rental restrictions and extras.
- Boat rentals: Present availability and pricing for boat reservations.
- Agencies and web designers: Build rental websites using a preferred WordPress theme.
Installation and Initial Setup
Install VikRentCar in WordPress and open its administration settings to begin configuring the rental system. Add vehicles and their sub-units, define locations, set rate plans and seasonal pricing, and configure availability restrictions. Then add options, extra services, fees, customer fields, payment methods, and coupon codes as required.
Use the available views or shortcodes to place the booking process on site pages. Review both the front-end booking flow and the back-end management area before making the rental website available to customers.
