Event portals & platforms
Venue, wedding and club portals show matching event equipment directly on their site – including enquiries.
Partner API · Pilot phase
Bouncy castles & event equipment as an API
Bring offers from local rental companies to your website or software – search, availability and enquiries in one API. The HOPS24 website stays free for renters and providers.
Who is the API for?
Rental companies with their own website
Sync listings, calendar and enquiries with your website or software automatically. The simple calendar widget stays free.
Software vendors
Rental and booking software connects its customers to HOPS24 – with a partner licence for many accounts.
What the API does
Search by location & date
Filter by postcode, radius, category and date – sorted by distance or price.
Listing details
Title, description, photos, prices, category, delivery area and link to the listing page.
Availability
Booked days for up to 12 months – live from the providers’ calendars.
Submit enquiries
Customer enquiries go straight to the provider’s inbox – with a confirmation email to the customer.
Sync your own listings
For rental companies: manage listings, blocked days and orders from your own software.
Webhooks
Get notified instantly when a new enquiry arrives or a listing changes.

Fair to providers
The API never shares providers’ contact details. Every enquiry goes through HOPS24 to the provider’s inbox – partners bring rental companies extra customers, commission-free.
Frequently asked questions
Is the API available yet?
Yes, in the pilot phase: search, listing details, availability, submitting enquiries, syncing your own listings and webhooks are live. We currently activate access personally – with a test key and sandbox for integration.
What happens when my quota is used up?
There are no extra charges. We notify you at 80 %; from 100 % further requests are declined until month end – or you upgrade at any time.
Do I have to credit HOPS24?
On Free and Starter, yes – with “via HOPS24” and a link to the listing page. From Business on, the link to the listing page is enough.
Do I get rental companies’ contact details?
No. Enquiries always go through HOPS24 to the provider. That keeps it fair and providers receive every enquiry in their usual inbox.
How is billing handled?
Monthly or yearly by invoice or direct debit, plus VAT. During the pilot phase we activate your plan personally – no costs before that.
Is the website still free?
Yes. Searching, enquiring and listing stay free on hops24.de for renters and providers. Only machine access via the API is paid.
