“We’re thrilled to work with an organisation as influential as ACT, and we believe this partnership will provide tremendous value to cycle retailers across the UK.”

Renticy is designed to help retailers maximise their inventory’s potential, providing a rental service that can increase revenue.

Whether it’s for new, used, or refurbished products, retailers can integrate rental options into their existing business model, meeting the growing demand for sustainable consumer choices.

The platform handles every aspect of the rental process, from fraud screening and contract setup to payment collection.
