What's an awesome storage tool that rhymes with Tennessee and sweet tea? Administration Fee! But in all seriousness, charging an admin fee is an effective way to offset some of the administrative costs that you have as a self storage operator.

You may be asking yourself, "How do I make sure I get one of those shiny admin fees on my site?" Well we're here to show you how to do just that!

First, you will need to create an administration fee in SiteLink. You'll do so by going into SiteLink: Company>Setup>Charges

We will make sure that the new or updated admin fee will be applied to your online rentals!

Pro Pug Tip: We auto-sync with your SiteLink four times a day: 10am, 1pm, 4pm, and 9pm. When you make changes in SiteLink between any of those sync times, the changes will be reflected on the website once the next auto-sync completes. However, you can also contact our Client Success team and we can do a manual sync to expedite the changes on the website.
