How Circl works
Rent or lend in 3 easy steps
Circl is a free, Delhi-based noticeboard open across India. We introduce you to the person who has what you need — the price, the deposit and the handover stay between the two of you.
For renters
Find it near you
Search by category or locality anywhere in India — suggestions appear as you type. Every listing shows the owner's daily rate, deposit and rules before you contact them.
Message the owner
Ask your questions in Circl's chat, agree the dates, and send a request. The owner accepts or declines — nothing is charged either way.
Collect and settle
Meet the owner, check the item together, pay them the rent and deposit directly, and return it on the agreed date.
For owners
List for free
Add photos, set your daily rate, deposit and rules. It takes a couple of minutes and costs nothing, ever.
Choose who borrows
You see each requester's profile and reviews, and you can decline any request without giving a reason.
Keep every rupee
The renter pays you directly at handover. Circl takes no commission and never touches the money.
Frequently asked
Does Circl charge anything?+
No. Listing is free, renting is free, and we take no commission on what you agree with the other person.
How do I pay the owner?+
Directly — cash, UPI or bank transfer, whatever you both prefer, at handover. There is no payment option on this site and we will never ask you to send money to Circl.
What about the deposit?+
The owner decides whether to ask for one and how much. It's handed over in person and returned by the owner when the item comes back in order.
Is my item insured?+
No. Circl provides no insurance or damage cover. Take a deposit, photograph the item at pickup and return, and only lend what you're comfortable lending.
Which areas do you cover?+
We are based in Delhi and busiest there, but listings and renters are welcome anywhere in India.
Is there delivery?+
No. Every rental on Circl is collected and returned in person by the two people involved.
