How it works

Safe rentals for both sides

Every RentGulf rental is backed by a refundable security deposit, verified profiles, condition photos before pickup, and a fair admin-reviewed dispute process.

Refundable deposit policy

Why a deposit?

It is not a fee. It protects the owner if the item is lost, damaged, late or returned incomplete. Fully refunded after a safe return.

How much?

Calculated from the product replacement value, category, risk and rental duration. Typically 15%–70% of product value.

Disputes

Owners must submit photos and evidence. Renters can accept or dispute. Admins decide if it can't be resolved.

Renter & owner flow

Before pickup

• Owner uploads condition photos and confirms accessories
• Renter reviews and accepts condition before receiving the item
• Deposit is placed on hold — status: Deposit Held

During rental

• Status becomes Active Rental
• Chat with the other party anytime
• Extension requests with one tap

On return

• Owner inspects: Good condition / Minor damage / Major damage / Missing accessories / Late / Not returned
• Deposit released, partially deducted, or frozen for admin review

If disputed

• Both parties upload evidence
• Deposit stays frozen until admin decision
• Admin issues final release / deduction / compensation
