Car rental software
Build a car rental website without code, with an online booking engine, and manage availability, payments, contracts and invoices from the same system.
- Rental website with integrated bookings
- Payments, contracts and invoices connected
- Ready for operations
From available car to pick-up, without jumping between tools
Car rental software has to cover the whole journey: from the moment someone looks for a car for certain dates until your team hands them the keys. In Pulso, that journey runs through a single system.
- 1
Browse cars and dates
The customer browses the cars, dates and availability on your own website.
- 2
Book and pay online
They book online and make the payment you've configured, in full or in part.
- 3
The booking reaches the dashboard
Your team manages the booking and the vehicle from the Pulso dashboard.
- 4
Pick-up prepared
Before pick-up, you collect details, documents and signatures so everything is ready.
A car rental website ready to receive bookings
Many car rental companies have a website that shows the fleet but makes people call or write to book. With Pulso, the website and the booking engine are the same thing, so whoever finds you can book right then.
There are two ways to get started, depending on what your business needs. Both start from Pulso's rental website builder.
Template
Choose a template, adapt it to your brand and put a professional car rental website online without coding.
Custom website
If your company needs a more distinctive presence, let's talk and we'll build you a custom website.
What your customer does on the website
- 1Sees your cars and the information for each one.
- 2Chooses the rental dates.
- 3Checks availability and price.
- 4Adds the extras you offer, such as a child seat or a GPS.
- 5Books and pays without leaving your website.
It works as car rental booking software integrated into your website, without sending the customer to another page. See online bookings →
Manage every booking and every car from a single dashboard
Each booking keeps its dates, customer details, car, payments and documents together. Your team doesn't have to piece a rental together by looking in three different places.
- View and update the bookings that come in from your website.
- See car availability and organize your inventory.
- Adjust prices, seasons, packs and extras to suit your operation.
- Keep each booking, its documents and its financial information together.
Car booking management, in detail
Bookings and calendarYou know which car goes out, when and with whom.
Online bookings and the ones your team creates appear in the same dashboard. You can change a booking when the customer changes plans, and each one keeps its dates, its customer and its status. When the customer completes a booking, they receive an email confirmation.
See booking management →Cars, inventory and availabilityYour website only offers what you can actually deliver.
You add your cars and control which ones are available for each date. If a car can't go out for a few days, you temporarily mark it as out of service.
See fleet and inventory →Rates, packs and extrasYour prices, just the way you work with them.
Set the rates for each car and apply seasonal prices when demand changes. You can create packs and offer extras that the customer adds when booking. What you set up in the dashboard is what is shown in the online booking.
Customer detailsYou ask each customer for what you need, just once.
You decide which details are requested in each booking. The information is saved with the booking and your team checks it from the dashboard, without searching for it in emails or on paper.
Arrive at pick-up with details and documents ready
Before pick-up, you can send the customer a link or hand them a tablet at reception so they can fill in the details and documents you need. The information is linked to the booking and helps your team prepare the paperwork.
This is Fast Track, Pulso's digital pre-registration. The result is a faster pick-up for your team and for the customer, who doesn't start their rental filling in forms at the counter.
- Configurable data collection: you ask for what your operation needs.
- Customer details and documents gathered before pick-up.
- Digital signature from the customer's phone or from a tablet.
- Documents saved together with the booking.
Your team still hands over the car: Fast Track gets the paperwork done in advance. See contracts and digital signature → · See pre-registration before handover →
Payments and invoicing connected to each rental
The customer pays online when booking, through Stripe or Redsys. You choose whether to charge the full amount or only part of it to confirm the booking. The payment is recorded in the same booking your team manages, together with the rest of its financial information.
For rental operations
Pulso brings booking and invoicing information together in one system, invoicing and contract signatures for rental companies worldwide.

Grow without changing systems
When your car rental business grows, the higher plans let you add users, agents and rental locations, with bookings and daily operations centralized in the same system. You don't have to switch car rental software when you open a second office.
And to make data-driven decisions, check revenue and performance by product, filter by period and export the information to Excel whenever you need it.
See plans and pricing →Your website, your bookings and your operations shouldn't live apart
A website on one side, a booking tool on the other and documents by hand end up duplicating your team's work. Pulso connects what the customer sees when booking with everything that happens after the booking.
- The customer books and pays from your own website.
- Your team manages bookings and availability in a single dashboard.
- Details, contracts and invoices stay connected to each rental.
