How tenants and the platform relate
OutdoorShare runs on a multi-tenant model. Each rental company (tenant) gets their own admin dashboard, storefront URL, and Stripe account — while sharing the same infrastructure. The platform owner (you) can configure fees, review all tenants, and manage platform-wide settings from the superadmin panel.
