Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to have a Listing?
Creating and publishing a Listing is free, and the Basic tier is free forever. However, Basic allows only three inquiries per month. To stay visible in search results all month and receive unlimited inquiries, you need a paid Starter subscription. You can upgrade at any time – go to Accounts and Settings > My Subscriptions.
What is meant by 'visible to renters'?
Basic tier Listings are hidden from search results after your account receives 3 inquiries in a month. They remain accessible via direct link, ongoing conversations, and your dashboard. But they won't appear in the Storefront search results, where most inquiries originate.
What do you get with a free Basic Storefront subscription?
A live Listing visible until you hit the monthly 3-inquiry limit. No payment details required. Ability to receive inquiries and manage conversations. Secure payments on the Storefront platform. Your Listing goes live again automatically on the 1st of the next month when the inquiry limit resets.
What about the transaction fee?
Storefront takes 20% of the rental price as a transaction fee, but only when a booking is successfully completed. This fee is the same on Basic and Starter plans. This comes out of what the renter pays. When you set your price in the platform you will clearly see how much you will receive per transaction.
How long does the free trial last?
Storefront offers a free 45-day trial of the Starter subscription for new users. Once your Listing is published you can activate your free trial by going to Accounts & Settings > My Subscriptions in the Storefront menu. When you upgrade to Starter you will not be charged for the first 45 days but after the 45-day trial has ended you will be billed for the next month unless you cancel before the end of your trial.
What happens if the trial ends and I don't upgrade?
After 45 days you will be moved onto the Starter plan and automatically billed for the next month. If you cancel before the trial ends, your Listing will move to the Basic tier at the end of the trial, limiting your account to three inquiries per month.
Can I reactivate a Listing that went offline after hitting the inquiry limit?
Yes. You have two options: upgrade to Starter and your Listing becomes visible again immediately, or wait until the 1st of the next month when your inquiry limit resets and your Listing goes live again.
Can I create duplicate Listings to access the free trial again?
No. All Listings are reviewed by Storefront. Duplicate Listings, if approved, automatically fall under the Basic tier unless upgraded. The free trial is only available to each Listing Owner once.
How much does the Subscription cost?
The subscription is a monthly price that varies by country. In the United States it costs $49 a month. Prices for other countries are similar but vary slightly depending on currency, with multi-Listing discounts available.
How do I set up a listing on Storefront?
It takes less than 5 minutes. Start now and follow the on-screen steps to create your Listing.
Can I speak to the renter?
You can use the chat function to speak with renters in the platform. After you have worked with us for a while you will be able to speak directly with them by clicking the 'Request To Call Back' button. Please note: This functionality is not available to everyone and we reserve the right to remove it if we feel it is not being used responsibly.
How long does it take for a payment to process after it has been approved?
It usually takes 3-7 business days to process your payment.
How do I arrange a visit?
Once you have confirmed your availability with the contact, you can click the button that says 'Arrange a visit'. Here you can suggest multiple dates and times that the brand can select.
What kind of renters and brands use Storefront?
A broad range of brands and renters use Storefront to find venues and spaces for their projects. From high street apparel to high end showrooms and corporate events. If you make it clear in your Listing what types of renters your space is most suited to, you should only receive inquiries from renters within your target demographic.
Does Storefront organise the viewings?
We do not organise viewings if you manage the Listing. The best option will be for you to arrange your own viewings with renters. If you would like Storefront to manage your listing (including visits) please let us know and there may be a fee involved.
What types of spaces can I list on Storefront?
All types of commercial real estate perform well on the Storefront platform. Anything from retail, photo studios and art galleries, to showrooms and warehouses. We attract a broad range of renters looking for all manner of use cases, both short term and long term.
What do I do when the brand wishes to extend a booking or rebook?
If the brand wishes to rebook, please instruct the brand to go back to the Storefront Listing and rebook. This is part of Storefront's terms and conditions of usage and if you do not correctly follow this process we reserve the right to pursue any guilty parties for breaching the terms and conditions.
Can I refuse a project?
Yes, you can refuse a project if you feel the inquiry does not suit you or your Listing.
How can I get more bookings from my listing on Storefront?
Once your listing has been published on Storefront you are immediately visible to potential renters and able to start receiving inquiries. Make sure your listing has great photos, accurate pricing, and up-to-date availability. You can also Boost your listing for a monthly subscription to ensure your listing appears first when renters search.
Monetize Your Vacant Event Space and Fill the Gaps in Your Calendar
Event venues are built for occupancy. When they're not hosting events, every quiet day represents unrealised revenue from a space with high fixed costs. Listing your vacant event space on Storefront attracts corporate clients, brand agencies, and event planners looking to book exactly the kind of space you have.
What happens to event venues between bookings?
Most event venues, including hotel ballrooms, lofts, warehouses, private dining rooms, rooftops, sit unused for a significant portion of the year. Midweek days, seasonal quiet periods, and gaps between booked events represent real vacancy. These are the periods where Storefront pays dividends: by listing your availability on the platform, you tap into demand that's always present but rarely reached through traditional marketing.
Who is booking vacant event space on Storefront?
Corporate teams searching for external meeting venues and product launch spaces book consistently through Storefront year-round. Brand agencies running influencer events, photoshoots, and press breakfasts are another strong segment. Production companies scouting filming locations, real estate companies hosting private client events, and wellness brands running one-day experiences all use the platform to find suitable venues quickly.
Pricing vacant event space for maximum occupancy
Day rates, half-day rates, and hourly pricing all work for event spaces on Storefront. Start with competitive market-rate pricing and adjust based on enquiry volume. Many event space owners find that offering midweek pricing slightly below peak weekend rates dramatically increases weekday occupancy without materially affecting weekend revenue.
