Rentu is a UK-based rental marketplace simplifying how individuals and businesses rent tools, event gear, home equipment, and more. As a growing startup, Rentu focuses on making rentals more accessible, faster, and user-friendly across the country.
Rental platform Rentu partnered with Twinr to turn their growing website into a sleek, high-performing mobile app, boosting completed bookings by 26% in the first 60 days. The new app reduced drop-offs, doubled retention, and delivered the fast, app-first experience today’s mobile users expect.
With more and more rentals being searched and booked on mobile, Rentu realized its mobile website wasn’t delivering the smooth, intuitive experience users expected. Booking abandonment was rising, repeat engagement was limited, and customer support queries were piling up. The missing piece? A dedicated mobile app built for speed and simplicity.
As Rentu scaled, they faced a familiar challenge: mobile users loved the platform, but using the website on mobile felt clunky and limited.
Without a dedicated app, Rentu struggled with:
Low retention- No push notifications meant users rarely returned
Booking drop-offs- Mobile users often abandoned the rental process mid-way
Limited engagement- No direct way to promote offers or send booking reminders
Inconsistent rebookings- Lack of app-based retention tools
Slow, web-like UX- Mobile site performance didn’t match user expectations
“Users clearly wanted the speed and simplicity of a mobile app, we just needed a way to build one without starting from scratch.” – Sam Cooper, Co-founder at Rentu

Rentu needed a mobile app, but building one from scratch was too costly, time-consuming, and resource-heavy for their lean team. They wanted a fast, no-code solution that didn’t require managing a separate codebase or duplicating development efforts.
Twinr offered the perfect fit: a platform that instantly turned their existing website into a fully branded native app with seamless performance and native screen transitions.
Launch quickly to match user demand without hiring developers
Avoid duplicate work any changes to the website should reflect instantly in the app
Maintain full control over branding to retain the premium, clean aesthetic they were known for
Enable direct user engagement through push notifications and app-specific features
Deliver a mobile-native feel that met modern UX expectations
Before the app, Rentu’s mobile site was functional but felt like a stripped-down desktop site. After the app launch, everything changed:
Bookings became faster and easier to complete
Push notifications boosted repeat rentals and reduced drop-offs
The app icon increased brand recall, driving repeat visits
Support queries dropped thanks to smoother, more intuitive navigation
“Everyone on the team was excited, and our customers began using the app almost instantly. The feedback we received was all positive, people loved the speed and ease.” – Sam Cooper, Co-founder at Rentu

Rentu’s journey proves that delivering a faster, app-first experience doesn’t require months of development or a massive budget.By partnering with Twinr, they turned their website into a sleek, high-performing native app, without writing a single line of code.
“The app feels much smoother. Transitions are cleaner, pages load faster, and we’ve seen better customer feedback and fewer drop-offs since going live,”
The result? More completed bookings, fewer drop-offs, and stronger customer engagement, all while reducing support load and boosting mobile performance.
If your marketplace or rental business already has strong mobile traffic, you’re closer than you think to having your own branded app.
