How to create a product to be available for rent in your channels

Your products in Twice can be available either for sale, for one time rent, or for long-term rent under a subscription contract. You can also offer the same product with all three options, so your customers can choose whether to buy, rent, or subscribe. This article will guide you when creating a basic rental product and outlines all additional settings.
