Point of Rental vs the Implemnt rental package: which fits a UAE rental business?
Point of Rental is built for rental yards that deliver, service and track a large fleet across branches. The rental package is built for the counter: walk-ins, the clock on every asset, waivers, payments and the end-of-day count, at one published monthly price.
What Point of Rental does well
From Point of Rental's own site, this is what it does well:

- Two products for different sizes: Elite for large, multi-branch operations, cloud or self-hosted, and Essentials, cloud-based, with a counter kiosk that scans a driving licence and pre-authorises a card.
- Delivery, dispatch and maintenance: truck assignments, live GPS and arrival windows, preventive maintenance and work orders, plus the Record360 inspection app and the POR One app for iOS and Android.

Ready for UAE e-invoicing
UAE e-invoicing reaches most businesses in 2027: appoint an accredited service provider (ASP) by 31 March 2027, then send invoices through it from 1 July 2027. We connect your invoicing to the ASP you choose, so every invoice the counter makes reaches it without retyping, and the ASP sends it in the PINT AE format over the Peppol network. We are the integrator, not an ASP, and the provider's own fees are paid to them. See the list of accredited service providers and our UAE e-invoicing guide.
What does the rental package cost?
AED 2,000 setup, then AED 1,250 a month, with a 12-month minimum and no per-user fees. That covers hosting, updates, support and up to 10 hours of changes every month. A larger operation, with many locations or a big fleet, is priced on its size after the free call.

Common questions
Point of Rental pricing is not published on its site. Its pricing page asks you to request a quote, and its product pages say the price depends on fleet size, number of locations and the features you need. Every plan comes with at least 2 users, and more can be added. Its FAQ says implementation support and training are included and add-ons are discussed up front. We give no AED figure because there is no public price to convert.
Yes. It has been in rental since 1982 and says it serves more than 5,000 rental businesses in over 80 countries.

Point of Rental Essentials also serves bike and recreational counters, with a kiosk that scans a driving licence. Its price is quoted on request, so compare that quote with our AED 17,000 for year one.
