What Are Rental Kiosks?

The rental kiosk will allow your potential renters to browse available listings via either the default webpage list, OR via your own company's webpage via the embed code.

Each site link that is generated by clicking the kiosk is a one-time link: Regardless of success or failure on the part of the web browser, it expires upon use and the user will need to click the kiosk for a fresh link.

Customizing Your Domain With Rental Listings

CasperTech will not provide technical support for webpage editing or problems with your web host (though we can help narrow down whether it is a webhost issue or something on our side).

Embedding Process

  1. Click the kiosk and choose "Config"
  2. You will arrive at the Kiosk's configuration page
  3. Grab the embed code and insert it into your site's rental listing web page
  4. Be sure to send your changed pages to your webhost
