What you can do with HOPS24
HOPS24 complements your website, phone and social media: get found, receive enquiries and plan your dates.
A dedicated page for every listing
Every active item has a public page with images, price, location and the details you choose to publish. You can share it directly, and search engines may index it.
Eight categories – services and venues included
Bouncy castles, arcade & event machines, food & drinks, furniture & tents, tech & effects, entertainment & kids shows, party rooms & venues and other. Machines such as boxing machines can also be offered for permanent placement – with a monthly price or “price on request”.
For clowns, magicians & entertainers too
You offer kids entertainment, a clown or magic show or face painting? List your show as a service – with a price per booking or per hour, duration and service area. Customers enquire directly with you, free of charge and without commission.
All enquiries and orders in one place
Customer enquiries arrive in your inbox with a status. Add orders from phone, WhatsApp or Instagram in seconds – one click turns an enquiry into a calendar date.
Maintain delivery areas and availability
Delivery area by map or postcode, block single days or whole periods in a few clicks, your existing calendar via iCal import and export. With the website widget or our WordPress plugin, your offers and free days appear right on your own website.
Statistics and exports
See how often your listings are viewed and enquired about. Export your orders as CSV, XML or PDF for your own bookkeeping.
Extra reach through partners
From 20 Oct 2026 your listings can also appear on partner portals, e.g. event portals. Enquiries still arrive in your HOPS24 inbox – free and can be switched off at any time under “Software & partners”.
Settle directly with the customer
You agree the payment timing and method yourself. HOPS24 does not collect the hire price or deduct commission from your payment.

Add-on
Renting on the side? “Equipment & customers” saves you the searching.
Stock, inspection dates, job schedule and regular customers in one place – no API plan needed, the first 30 days are free.
Saturday morning, and the blower is missing
The customer is waiting while you are still looking for the second blower or the ground sheet.
The list is never up to date
Spreadsheet, notebook, a note on the fridge – and everyone on the team has a different version.
Two identical bounce houses, one inquiry turned down
Because your calendar only knows “booked”, you say no although the second one was free – or you say yes twice.
Inspection date forgotten
You only notice when setting up, and the unit stays in the warehouse.
Frequently asked questions from providers
What happens when an enquiry comes through HOPS24?
The customer sends you a free enquiry with a requested date via your listing. You reply directly and agree contract and payment with them – HOPS24 is not a contracting party and takes no money.
What do I need to work with the platform?
A public listing needs correct business and contact details, clear prices, your own images and accurate information about the item. Keep the insurance and safety records required for your business and equipment up to date.
How do I receive payment?
Your customer pays you directly using the method you agree. HOPS24 does not collect the rental price and therefore does not issue a payout to you.
What does the platform cost?
Nothing. HOPS24 is free for providers – no base fee and no commission on your orders. You only pay for what you order yourself – such as an API plan like Business for website widgets without the HOPS24 note.
How are problems on the event day handled?
Tell your customer about disruptions, delays or safety issues immediately and document them. As contracting parties, you agree remediation, substitute service or refunds directly.
Do I get documents for my accountant?
You can export your orders as CSV, XML or PDF. Your own invoices and tax treatment remain your responsibility.
Can I also add orders that did not come via HOPS24?
Yes. Under “Orders” you add orders agreed by phone, Instagram, WhatsApp or in person. Enquiries via HOPS24 are taken over under “Enquiries” with “Add as order”. The date is then immediately blocked in your calendar and in search.
Can I join as a clown, magician or entertainer?
Yes. Choose the category “Entertainment & Kids Shows” when creating your listing. Instead of a rental price and deposit you enter a price per booking or per hour and the duration; you set your service area just like a delivery area, on the map or by postcode. Enquiries arrive directly in your inbox, as with every listing.
Start with one item – online in a few minutes.
Free, no commission and no payment details. You can pause any listing at any time.
