KWIPPED online B2B equipment rental marketplace gains momentum

Launches RentNOW e-commerce solution for real-time scheduling.


KWIPPED Inc., a startup online B2B equipment rental marketplace which debuted at the end of last year, announces RentNOW, a new feature that let’s suppliers upload pre-priced rental inventory so companies can secure equipment in real-time using the KWIPPED website.

The company says RentNOW has been launched with over 1,000 products spanning 100 individual equipment categories.

“RentNOW delivers unprecedented efficiency to the equipment rental procurement process,” states Robert Preville, KWIPPED Founder and CEO. “Companies need pricing to prepare budgets and proposals, or to decide on rent vs. buy decisions. While KWIPPED customers can continue to request quotes using our ‘RFQ’ feature, RentNOW offers real-time pricing and inventory availability, which significantly expedites the sourcing and renting processes.”

KWIPPED.com connects businesses that need to rent equipment with a global network of suppliers that have that equipment available. The platform facilitates and automates the entire rental process, encompassing sourcing, quoting, scheduling, insurance, security deposits, contract execution and shipping.

KWIPPED technology manages the billing and rental coordination and reduces risk by assuring a quality marketplace comprised of trusted partners.

“Companies that need rental equipment often face roadblocks – many that can hinder project turnaround and even hurt profits,” Preville says. “From time wasted on inefficient sourcing, to limited availability, to a lack of trust between involved parties, the challenges of renting equipment can be overcome with a platform like KWIPPED.”
