Price Calculation

The RnB plugin supports four types of pricing .

• General Price Configuration

• Daily Price Configuration

• Monthly Price Configuration

Our plugins support hourly pricing system if you want to book less than 1 day. However for that from the backend of the WooCommerce settings you need to unselect single day booking (if that is already selected).

Now our hourly pricing has two types : 1) General Hourly Pricing and, 2) Hourly Range Pricing.

1. General Hourly Pricing

2. Hourly Range Pricing

This is the newest pricing plan of our rental plugin. It will work as flat hour rate.
