What you pay
Louez
On pay-per-booking, each confirmed booking costs €1 down to €0.30 depending on your monthly volume, and a month without rentals costs nothing. The store, payments, deposits, agreements and inspections are included, with unlimited team members. A subscription is also available, from €49 a month. Payment processing fees are separate.
LoKisi
Pro Loc costs €29 a month excluding VAT for one user, with no commitment and a 30-day trial. Each extra user adds €19 a month, the maintenance module €20 and the accounting export €19.
Monthly cost example
Example in euros: one user, a €60 average order. Louez pay-per-booking after the free bookings; LoKisi Pro Loc with no add-ons.

Illustrative calculation, excluding tax. LoKisi's website presents no booking store or online payment, so the two columns do not cover the same work.
Which one fits?
Louez fits if…
You want customers to book and pay online at any hour, with the deposit recorded and the agreement validated before they arrive. You work as a team without paying for each login.
LoKisi fits if…
Your customers mostly come to the counter, you rent and sell equipment, and you track hour meters, periodic inspections and repairs. A low fixed price for a single login suits you.
