Trust by design
Built around the moment things usually go wrong.
SecureMeetup Verification
Pickups and returns are confirmed by a one-time QR code generated only at the meetup location. No fake handoffs. No "I never got it back."
Structured Evidence Capture
Both parties capture photos at pickup and return. Disputes are resolved with evidence, not arguments.
Trust-Tiered Deposits
Our dynamic engine adjusts deposit holds based on trust score. Verified borrowers don't get punished. New users start with full deposit protection.
How it works
Three steps, fully covered.
- 01
Browse & Request
Find an item near you. Send a request. The lender approves and sets a meetup time and place.
- 02
Meet & Verify
At the meetup, both parties scan a SecureMeetup QR and capture pickup photos. The rental officially starts.
- 03
Return & Get Refunded
At return, capture photos again. If everything's good, the deposit hold releases automatically.
Built on trust. Backed by Stripe.
Every payment runs through Stripe Connect with manual capture, which means your deposit is authorized but not charged unless something goes wrong. Damage claims are reviewed against the evidence captured at handoff — not based on who shouts loudest.
Be among the first to rent the right way.
BorrowBase launches on iOS and Android soon. Join the beta to help shape what gets built next.
