FAQ
Common questions
Does Miko Product Rentals work on any Shopify plan?
Yes. It works on every Shopify plan including Basic, Shopify, Advanced, and Plus. No Shopify Plus subscription is required.
Is the free plan genuinely free, or is it a trial?
Genuinely free. You get 10 lifetime rentals at no cost with no credit card required. It is a real starting point, not a 14-day countdown.
How does the rental date picker appear on my product pages?
Via a Shopify Theme App Extension. You drag the Miko Rentals block onto your product page template in the theme editor. No code editing, no theme file changes.
Can I rent products with multiple Shopify variants?
Yes. Each variant gets its own unit count, pricing, and availability calendar. A kayak store can set up Small, Medium, and Large kayaks with separate inventory pools and different daily rates.
How does the deposit get paid and returned?
The deposit is added to the checkout total alongside the rental price. When the item is returned safely, you release the deposit via Shopify's refund system with one click. If there is damage, you forfeit it instead.
What happens when a rental becomes overdue?
Miko automatically updates the booking status to overdue and sends an overdue notice (Starter and above). You configure the grace period and daily late fee amount in your settings.
Do I need to change my Shopify theme to install this?
No. Miko Product Rentals uses a Theme App Extension, which means you add the date picker block through the Shopify theme editor without touching any theme code directly.
Miko Product Rentals: FAQ
Does Miko Product Rentals work on any Shopify plan?

Is there a free plan for Miko Product Rentals?
Yes. The Free plan gives you 10 lifetime rentals at no cost with access to all core features. No credit card required. It is a genuine free plan, not a time-limited trial.
How does the Shopify rental date picker work?
Miko Product Rentals adds a rental calendar block to your product pages via a Shopify Theme App Extension. Customers select their dates and see live availability before adding to cart. No theme code editing required.
Can I rent Shopify products with multiple variants?
Yes. Each variant can have its own unit count, pricing, and availability calendar. A kayak store can configure Small, Medium, and Large kayaks with different daily rates and separate inventory pools.
How do deposits work with Miko Product Rentals?
Set a deposit amount per product. The deposit is collected at checkout. When the item is returned safely, release the deposit with one click. If there is damage, forfeit it instead. Managed entirely within your Shopify admin.
Is Miko Product Rentals a plugin or an app?
It is a Shopify app, installed from the Shopify App Store like any other. Some merchants search for a “Shopify rental plugin” using the WordPress-era term, and the two words describe the same thing here: software that adds rental booking to your existing Shopify product pages, with no separate system to run.
