About Rentiday

Rentiday did not start out as Rentiday. My name is Zayn. My mother rents out holiday homes in the Ardennes, which gave me a close view of how dependent private owners have become on the large booking platforms.

A website of your own can work well, but the broad searches people start with are dominated by the big platforms. They deliver reach and convenience, and in return they often take a percentage of every booking.

That struck me as odd. An owner does the work, welcomes the guests and carries the responsibility for the property, yet hands over part of the rent on every single booking.

So in March 2026 I started a Belgian site. The idea was simple: build the convenience of a large holiday platform while leaving the bond between guest and owner intact. Holidaymakers find properties in one place, while the owner sets their own prices and stays in direct contact with their guests. No commission per booking, no middleman taking over the guest.

Within a few months, hundreds of holiday homes joined. Not from one large chain, but from owners who do not know each other and run into the same problem. Rentiday grew out of that.

Rentiday builds on that same platform: the same database, the same price calculation and the same people checking every property before it goes live. What is added is the rest of Europe: thirteen languages instead of four, and a search that does not stop at a border.
