How customers find you
A customer tells us what the job needs. The request lands in your portal, you quote your price and availability, and the work is yours to win.
Why join
More of the right orders.Less time on the phone.
02
Requests in one place
Requests arrive in your portal with what, when and where already filled in. Quote the ones you want, decline the rest.
03
Your prices, your availability
You keep your own prices and availability up to date, so customers only ask for what you can supply.
04
Commission on orders
You pay a commission on orders that come through MerchantLink, at a rate agreed with you when you join. Only on the work you win.
05
Paid up front
The customer pays the full hire before the kit leaves the yard, so you are not chasing an invoice after the event.

Charge for the extras
Wait time, overweight, contamination, damage. Add them when you close the hire and they are charged on top of what has already been paid.
