Lend what you’re not using.Keep 90% of the rent.

The three things students ask before listing anything, answered straight.

List an item
  1. 01Is it worth it?Yes. ₱50 to list, once. Arkila keeps 10% of the rent, nothing else.
  2. 02Is it a hassle?No. List it, approve a request, hand it over, confirm the return.
  3. 03Is it safe?Yes. Renters are verified, handoffs happen in public, and Arkila holds the deposit.

Do the math on your stuff

Each figure is a month’s take-home at 10 days rented, from an example rate. You set your own.

Is it a hassle? No.

Four steps from your bag to your wallet. Arkila does the checking in between.

All you need

  • Something you own
  • Up to five photos
  • Your ID, checked once
  • A campus safe zone
  1. 01

    List it

    Add up to five photos, a daily rate, an optional deposit and the safe zone where you’ll meet.

    Arkila: Checks your ID (the first time only) and the listing fee, then your listing goes live.

    Your listing shows Active

  2. 02

    Say yes or no

    Requests arrive with their dates. Chat with the renter first if you like, then approve or decline.

    Arkila: Nobody pays anything until you approve.

    The rental shows Approved

  3. 03

    Hand it over

    The renter pays and uploads the proof. Once it’s verified, meet at your safe zone and tap Mark handed over.

    Arkila: A person on the Arkila team checks every payment proof first.

    The rental shows Ready for pickup

  4. 04

    Get it back, get paid

    Meet at the same spot, check it, and tap Confirm return. Your take-home lands in your wallet; cash out any time.

    Arkila: Returns the deposit to the renter. Damaged? Open a dispute with photos and an admin decides the split.

    The rental shows Returned

Is it safe? Yes. Arkila checks first.

You lend the item. Arkila checks the people, the money and the deposit, so you never have to chase a classmate.

  1. Before the handoff

    • Every renter is verifiedAn Arkila admin checks each student’s ID, front and back, against a selfie.
    • The money is checked firstA person verifies every payment proof. You hand nothing over until it clears.

  2. At the handoff

    • It happens in publicAt the campus safe zone on your listing, both ways.
    • The deposit sits with ArkilaNot with you, not with the renter. Any deduction needs a written reason.

  3. After the end date

    • Late returns get flaggedThe day after the end date, the rental is marked overdue and you both get a notice.
    • Disputes get a humanOpen one with photos. An admin decides the deposit split; payouts for that rental wait until it’s settled.

The fine print, answered

The details behind the three answers. Something else? [email protected]

  • Students and student alumni. Sign up with your campus, then verify your ID once (a school ID, national ID, driver’s license or passport, plus a selfie). After that you can list and rent.

  • A ₱50 listing fee, once per listing, checked by an Arkila admin before the listing goes live. Editing it later is free. When something rents, Arkila keeps 10% of the rent and nothing from the deposit. Renters pay a ₱50 service fee on top; it never comes out of your rent.

  • You do. Set a daily rate, and a deposit if you want one. Renters see the full total, including Arkila’s service fee, before they request.

  • No. Requests come in with the dates, and you approve or decline each one. You can message the renter first. Approving one request declines any others for the same dates, and before anyone pays, either of you can cancel for free.

  • When you confirm the return, the rent minus 10% moves into your wallet. Request a payout whenever you like: your whole balance, no minimum, by GCash, bank transfer or cash. Arkila attaches the receipt when it’s sent.

  • A rental still out the day after its end date is flagged overdue and you’re both notified. For damage, open a dispute with photos; an Arkila admin decides whether the deposit goes to you, back to the renter, or is split. Payouts tied to that rental wait until it’s settled.

  • At the safe zone you pick on your listing: a public, well-known spot on campus. You meet there for the handover and the return.
