Car rental software, answered.

Car rental software is a management system that keeps reservations, rates, fleet availability, rental agreements, payments and returns in one record, so a rental company can run its counter, fleet and online bookings from a single operation.

A broker integration connects the rental system to booking channels such as Rentalcars.com, Booking.com, Expedia or DiscoverCars. Availability and rates are published to the broker, and confirmed reservations flow back into the rental system automatically, usually over SOAP or REST APIs.

SOAP uses XML messages with a fixed contract and is still common with established broker and GDS systems. REST uses lighter request-and-response calls, usually JSON, and is typical in newer channel tools. Good rental software supports both.

An agent portal gives travel agencies, tour operators and corporate desks their own sign-in to book against live availability and their contracted rates, with each booking attributed to the agent that created it.

Yes. An iframe embed places your booking flow inside a partner website, hotel page or microsite. Customers search and book there, while the reservation is created directly in your rental system.

Tracker integration compares where a vehicle actually is with what the booking says, helping the desk spot late returns, geofence breaches and idle vehicles without switching systems.
