✨ Why venues sign up

A new revenue line that runs itself.

Four reasons RentaBrolly is the easiest yes a venue manager will make this year.

💷 A genuine new revenue line

You earn commission on every umbrella rented at your venue — a venue amenity that pays you back instead of costing you.

🙌 Zero effort for your team

We deliver, install, maintain, restock and handle every customer question. Your staff never have to touch it.

☂ A service customers love

Caught in the rain — and your venue is the one that sorted them out. That's the kind of thing customers remember, and come back for.

🛟 No cost, no risk

No upfront cost, no rental fee, no contract. If it's not pulling its weight for your venue, we simply take it away.

☔ For your guests

🎨 Key features

Built to fit your venue

Custom sizes, custom colours, custom branding. No request is too big — if you need it, we'll make it happen.

🎨 Personalised branding

Stands and umbrellas carry your logo, brand colours, and marketing — blending into your venue like they belong there.

🧩 Modular design

Custom sizes and configurations to fit any space — from a single countertop unit to a full floor-standing tower. We size the kit to your venue, not the other way round.

📡 Wi-Fi & 4G compatible

Every station has Wi-Fi and 4G built in for stable connection. Works straight out of the box — no IT setup, no router faff.

🏆 Built for your kind of place

What it does for your venue

Every venue runs differently. Here's the specific win RentaBrolly brings to yours.

🍻

Bars & pubs

A dry walk home means another round first. Guests stay, share, and check in from your bar instead of bolting at the first drizzle.

🌙

Nightclubs & late-night

Every guest gets home dry — no soaked queues, no ruined outfits. A genuine duty-of-care win that customers remember.

Cafés & coffee shops

Become the spot remote workers and friends pick to settle in for another hour — and another flat white.

🍽️

Restaurants

Looked-after guests relax. They linger over dessert, book again, and leave a warmer review.

🏋️

Gyms & studios

Members aren't put off by a downpour when there's a dry walk home waiting at the door.

🏨

Hotels & large venues

A small touch guests remember — and a new income line that runs across the lobby, bar and floors.

💰 Revenue share

You earn on every transaction. 💰

A share of every rental taken at your venue lands in your account each month. No targets, no thresholds, no work on your end.

  • 💸
    Monthly payments — no delays Your revenue lands on the dot, every month, straight to your account.
  • 🤝
    Zero effort for your staff We install, we maintain, we handle every customer query. Your team don't lift a finger.
  • Happier, safer customers A dry customer stays longer, orders another round, and heads home happy.
  • 📊
    Detailed monthly reports See every rental and every penny earned. Full transparency from day one.
£ Revenue on every rental

What could your venue earn?

Drag the sliders. It's your footfall and the weather doing the work — not your staff.

£180
estimated for your venue, per month
£2,160 a year — for zero effort
Illustration only, based on £5 per rental. Founding venues lock in our highest share for good. London averages around 12 wet days a month — busier doors and late-night venues see more.

🔁 Built to circulate, not to bin

Every returned umbrella goes straight back into service. One brolly replaces the stack of cheap ones that end up in a bin by the Tube.

🔧 Repaired before replaced

Bent spoke or loose runner? Our field team fixes it at the stand. Umbrellas only retire when they're truly done.

🌱 Our sourcing commitment

Every new canopy we order from 2027 will use recycled-content fabric, and we publish our repair-vs-replace numbers to venues each year.

🤔 Good questions

The bits venues always ask

Everything a venue manager wants to know before saying yes.

When does RentaBrolly launch?
We launch in September 2026. We are signing founding venues now, so the first stands are installed and live in time for launch — get in early and you are first in your area.
How does it work for my customers?
Dead simple. They tap a card or phone on the stand to release an umbrella, take it with them, and return it to any RentaBrolly stand. They only pay for what they use — and your team is never involved.
What does it cost us?
Nothing. No upfront cost, no rental fee, no catch — we install the stand free and you earn commission on every rental. It's the rare venue amenity that makes you money instead of costing you.
Do we need any wiring or building work?
No. Our stands just need a bit of floor space — no electrician, no construction, no IT setup. We deliver it, place it where it works best, and switch it on.
Can it be branded with our logo?
Yes. The stand and the umbrellas carry your logo, colours and even campaign messaging — so it looks like it belongs in your venue, not bolted on.
What happens if a unit stops working?
We monitor every station remotely. If something faults, our team arranges a fix or a swap — you don't need to chase us or lift a finger.
How long does setup take?
Minutes. Once you've picked your kit, we book a demo day and come to you — placing the stand takes under five minutes. No site works, no IT setup, no waiting around.
Is there a contract or tie-in?
We start with a free trial. If it isn't pulling its weight for your venue, we simply take it away — no fuss, no exit fee.
Do our customers need an app or an account?
No. They tap a contactless card, Apple Pay or Google Pay on the stand and an umbrella unlocks. No download, no sign-up, no deposit — which is exactly why people actually use it when it's raining.
What if a customer loses or damages an umbrella?
They're never charged more than the £20 cap — the same as keeping it. No loss fees, no deposits, no awkward conversations at your bar. Normal wear and tear is on us.
Can customers return it to a different stand?
Yes — any RentaBrolly stand in London. That's better for them and better for you: umbrellas keep flowing between venues instead of piling up at one.
What if the stand runs low on umbrellas?
Every stand reports stock levels to us over 4G. When it drops below a set level we restock within 24 hours — and before forecast heavy rain we top up in advance.
How much space and power does it need?
A 71 × 62 cm footprint (about a bar stool's worth) and a standard plug socket. It's 136 cm tall and connects over 4G, so nothing touches your Wi-Fi or IT.
Can a competitor round the corner get one too?
Founding venues get first pick in their area and our highest revenue share locked in. We cap how many stands go into any one patch so yours keeps earning.
