If you found TWICE Commerce through the Wix App Market — or you’re a Wix user looking for a way to add rental functionality to your site — this article explains exactly what the TWICE Rentals app is, how it works, and what you can do with it.
The Core Idea: Two Platforms, One Experience
TWICE Rentals for Wix is not a standalone product. It’s the TWICE Commerce rental engine — inventory, availability, pricing, and booking management — delivered as an element that lives inside your Wix site.
This means two platforms are working together when a customer visits your store:
- TWICE Commerce handles everything behind the scenes: your product catalog, stock levels, availability rules, rental periods, and booking logic
- Wix handles everything the customer sees and interacts with: your site design, product pages, shopping cart, checkout, and payments
The result is a rental store that feels completely native to your Wix site — because it is.
What You Get from TWICE Commerce
The TWICE Rentals app gives you access to the full TWICE Commerce inventory and availability engine:
- Catalog management — products, variants, SKUs, and product attributes
- Availability engine — real-time availability based on rental periods, buffer times, and stock levels
- Pricing rules — daily, weekly, monthly, and custom pricing periods
- Booking and order management — reservations, active rentals, returns, and order history all managed from your TWICE dashboard
- Serialized inventory — track individual items across your fleet
Your rental inventory and catalog are managed from your TWICE Commerce dashboard, regardless of which sales channel your customers use. Orders are handled on Wix, but they are automatically synced to your TWICE Commerce dashboard.
What You Get from Wix
This is where TWICE Rentals for Wix becomes genuinely powerful. Because your storefront runs on Wix, you get access to everything the Wix ecosystem offers:
- Full design freedom — build your rental store pages exactly how you want them, with Wix’s drag-and-drop editor
- Wix checkout and payments — your customers check out through Wix’s native commerce flow, with all the payment methods Wix supports
- Wix apps and integrations — combine your rental store with a blog, booking system, CRM, loyalty program, or any other app in the Wix marketplace
- Wix SEO tools — take advantage of Wix’s built-in SEO capabilities to get your rental products found online
- Your own domain — your store lives on your Wix domain, not a TWICE subdomain
For businesses that already have a Wix site — or want to build one — this means your rental store becomes a natural part of your broader online presence, not a separate system bolted on the side.
How to Install and Connect
Getting started with TWICE Rentals for Wix takes just a few minutes:
- Go to the Wix App Market
- Install the app on your Wix site
- Sign in with your existing TWICE Commerce account — or create a new one directly from the app
- Your TWICE inventory is now connected to your Wix site
That’s it. Your catalog, availability, and pricing rules are immediately live on your Wix storefront. From there, it’s about placing the element on your pages and configuring your Wix site around it.
What You Can Customize
Once installed, the TWICE Rentals elements can be placed on any page of your Wix site. You have full control over:
- Which pages the TWICE Rentals elements appears on
- What products or categories you want to list on the TWICE Rental element
- The layout and design of the pages surrounding the component(s)
- Your Wix site structure, navigation, and branding
- Checkout flow and payment settings through Wix
This flexibility is what makes the Wix app particularly powerful for businesses that want to create a custom storefront experience — product landing pages, category pages, editorial content alongside rental products, and so on.
Honest Limitations Worth Knowing
TWICE Rentals for Wix is powerful, but it’s worth understanding what it is and isn’t:
- Rentals only - unline TWICE Commerce you can’t sell or resell products directly through your TWICE catalog, you’ll use Wix’s native e-commerce features for that.
- The element, not the full storefront — the TWICE Rentals app brings embedded elements to your Wix site, not a fully standalone storefront. Your Wix site is the storefront.
- Wix checkout — payments and checkout run through Wix, so you’re working within Wix’s payment options and checkout flow rather than TWICE’s native checkout
- Two dashboards — you’ll manage your rental inventory and catalog in TWICE, and your site orders, design and checkout in Wix. Two logins, two systems — though they work seamlessly together
- Wix plan required — you need an active Wix plan to use the app on a live site

Who Is TWICE Rentals for Wix Best For?
The Wix app is the right choice if:
- You already have a Wix site and want to add rental functionality to it
- You want full design control over your storefront without being limited to a single theme
- You want to combine rentals with other Wix features — a blog, a booking system, a CRM, or other Wix apps
- You’re comfortable managing two connected platforms and want the flexibility that brings
If you’re starting from scratch and just want the fastest path to a live rental store without building a website, the TWICE Commerce standalone storefront might be the simpler starting point. You can always add the Wix app later — both are included in every plan.
Getting Set Up Right
Whichever path you’re on, the setup work is largely the same: catalog structure, SKUs, availability rules, pricing, and settings. TWICE Commerce has a lot more depth than most users discover on their own — and getting it right from the start makes a real difference to how your business runs.
