Renting
How does BAG IT work?
BAG IT allows you to rent luxury bags for a specified period. Simply browse our collection, select your desired bag, choose the rental duration, register or login to your account, and proceed to checkout. Once your order is confirmed, the bag will be delivered to your doorstep.
What do I need to make an account?
To use the rental service, you need to register by creating a personal account. During the registration process, the following documents and information are required:

5. Telephone number, e-mail etc.
6. Credit card information with an expiration date of no less than 4 months from the day of registration
Why do I need to verify my identity and bank information?
Every renter will need to verify their identity and banking due to the high valued items we are renting out.
