The ranges are the listing assistant's suggestions, not market data from Leihnachbar. 4 rental days a month is an assumption for the arithmetic — how often your device is actually wanted depends on the device and the neighbourhood.

Listed in four steps

Step 1

Pick a model

Choose your device from the catalogue. Value, accessories and a price range are already filled in.

Step 2

Details & price

Condition, accessories and your daily rate. You set what you want to receive per day — the Leihnachbar commission goes on top for the renter.

Step 3

Receive requests

Neighbours send you a request. You say yes — or decline. You stay in control.

Step 4

Hand over & earn

You meet in person. The rent is already in your Stripe account by then; Stripe pays it out to you on its schedule.

What stays in your hands

Your price

You set what reaches you per day. The suggestion is a suggestion.

Your calendar

You block the days you need the device yourself. Only free days can be booked.

Notice and time windows

How much notice you need and which hours suit a handover are stated on the listing.

Every request

You accept or decline, within 24 hours. The renter's card is only charged after that.

For occasional lenders and professionals

Private

One to five devices you rarely need. List them once, lend occasionally, earn on the side.

Power lender

Five to fifty devices. Calendar, ratings and everything in one place.

Rental business

Rental or trade businesses. Shown as “Business”, with the right details for your customers.

Clearly handled from start to finish

Every rental follows clear rules — payment through the platform, ID verification from €100, and photos at handover and return.

Verified renters
From €100 total including the deposit, the renter verifies with photo ID. Every account has a confirmed email address.
Agreed deposit
For valuable devices you agree a deposit before handover – just in case.
Condition documented
Photos at handover and return show exactly how the device looked – before and after you lent it.
What applies to damage
Leihnachbar does not provide rental insurance. You can set a deposit; handover photos, codes and messages document the rental and count towards a deposit claim.

What the renter pays, and what reaches you

You state what you want to receive per day. The renter pays you that amount plus the Leihnachbar commission — straight into your Stripe account. The commission and Stripe's fees come off there. An example with a daily rate of 20,00 €:

You want to receive
20,00 €
Leihnachbar commission
4,37 €
Expected Stripe fee (EU card)
0,63 €
Renter pays
25,00 €

The commission is at least 5,00 € per booking; on small amounts the renter covers the difference and your amount is untouched. Your first rental and good ratings lower your rate. If Stripe's fee is higher than expected (cards from outside the EU), Leihnachbar makes up the difference from its commission.
