Installation
Install Rental Suite from the Shopify App Store (or your Partner / development install) and approve the permissions the app needs for products, orders, customers, and the storefront.
Install from Shopify
- Log in to Shopify Admin.
- Go to Apps and find Rental Suite (by DeveloperLook), or open the install link from your Partner dashboard for a development store.
- Click Install and review the permission request.
- After approval, you are redirected into the app inside Shopify Admin.
Permissions the app requests
Rental Suite uses Shopify API access to:
| Access | Why it is needed |
|---|---|
| Products (read & write) | Link rental profiles, media, and inventory |
| Orders (read & write) | Sync bookings, tags, and fulfillment |
| Customers (read & write) | Profiles, portals, and messaging |
| Discounts (read & write) | Promotions mirrored to Shopify when enabled |
| Locations / shipping | Pickup locations and delivery policy |
| Purchase options | Subscribe / recurring rental contracts |
| App proxy | Storefront availability, stock, and checkout helpers |
| Files / metafields | Rental rates, modes, and catalog copy |
Verify installation
After install, confirm:
- Dashboard loads without errors.
- The app nav shows Products, Bookings & Inquiries, Storefront, Settings, and Billing.
- You can open Storefront and follow the theme block instructions.
- Billing shows your plan and the rental bookings used this month.
Storefront block
The rental product UI runs through the Rental product page theme app block. Open Storefront in the app for a deep link into the theme editor.
If nothing appears on a product page:
- Confirm the block is added to the product template.
- Keep Product information enabled on the product template (both sections stay on; Rental Suite shows the right one per product). Confirm the product is linked in Products inside the app.
- Hard-refresh the storefront (and clear theme cache if needed).
