Seven buyer questions

Compare what actually affects your facility.

Compare the written default, not the best-case sales configuration. See what every customer receives, what requires another product or negotiated term, and what each provider commits to publicly.

Three commitments, in writing.

Standard commercial and product commitments for every supported facility.

  1. No fixed-term contract

    Cancel effective at the end of the current paid period.

  2. FSS takes no cut of your payment processing.

    Payments run through your supported Square or Helcim account. Processor fees still apply, but FSS adds no percentage, transaction markup, or revenue share.

  3. Facility branding guaranteed

    Your facility remains the primary brand across the hosted renter experience.

    No separate FSS website product, branding package, premium tier, or negotiated add-on is required.

Payment economics

Your rent is not our revenue stream.

Payment-linked revenue can become a major business line in vertical software. FSS charges for the platform, not the payment volume or move-in volume it supports.

How large can payment-linked revenue become?

FSS share of payment-processing fees

FSS earns $0 from each tenant payment.

$0

FSS fee per confirmed reservation

A successful rental does not create an additional FSS software charge.

Our revenue comes from the software subscription, not your payment volume or move-in volume.

  1. Tenant payment
  2. Payment processor
  3. Facility settlement
Possible branchSoftware-platform payment revenue

The platform may earn a markup, revenue share, or other transaction-linked compensation.

Full Stack Storage

  1. Tenant payment
  2. Square or HelcimProcessor fee under the operator’s agreement
  3. Facility settlement

No markup, revenue share, or payment-volume compensation.

Standard Square or Helcim processor fees still apply under the operator’s own processor agreement.

When your tenants pay more, FSS does not earn more.

Compare providers

Public sources reviewed How claims are sourced

  1. Q-01

    Who controls the payment relationship, and who earns on each transaction?

    Separate processor fees, platform markup, settlement ownership, required payment products, and publicly disclosed economics.

    Full Stack Storage

    Guaranteed in writing

    FSS takes no cut of your payment processing.

    Payments run through your supported Square or Helcim account. Processor fees still apply, but FSS adds no percentage, transaction markup, or revenue share.

    Not publicly disclosed

    Complete payment economics are not published

    The reviewed public sources do not state the complete processor rate, platform markup, revenue share, or settlement structure. Sitelink’s Terms describe Payments as optional through Stripe or Payrix, and an official page documents a Canadian Merchant Services configuration. Request the complete payment economics and applicable Order Form in writing.

    Provider confirmation required

    Official Sitelink material documents Sitelink Merchant Services in Canada. The reviewed sources do not establish the current Canadian availability of the complete Sitelink configuration, including tax, currency, and insurance options.

  2. Q-02

    Does your software bill increase when a customer reserves a unit?

    Separate the monthly subscription from fees tied to successful reservations.

    Full Stack Storage

    Guaranteed in writing

    $0 per confirmed reservation

    FSS does not charge a reservation fee, move-in fee, or success fee when a tenant rents a unit. The software subscription does not increase merely because the facility completes more rentals. Standard processor fees remain separate when a payment is processed.

    Not publicly disclosed

    Reservation-linked software fees are not published

    The reviewed product and Terms sources do not state whether the software subscription adds a fee for each confirmed reservation or move-in. Confirm the complete fee schedule in writing.

  3. Q-03

    Is facility branding guaranteed or dependent on another product?

    Distinguish a written facility-branding commitment from a separately purchased website, marketplace path, or configuration-dependent renter experience.

    Full Stack Storage

    Guaranteed in writing

    Facility branding across the renter experience

    The hosted rental page, tenant account, FSS-sent emails, invoices, and receipts use the facility’s identity as the primary customer-facing brand. Facility branding is included in the supported subscription and does not require a separate FSS website product, branding package, premium tier, or negotiated add-on.

    Additional product required

    The documented branded renter path requires another product or integration

    Sitelink is the management platform. Storable documents branded websites, online rentals, and tenant services through the separate Storable Websites product, while Sitelink also supports third-party integrations. Confirm which customer-facing surfaces are included in the quoted package.

  4. Q-04

    What operating work is included in the standard platform?

    Separate standard operating scope from add-ons, third-party integrations, separate provider products, and implementation-specific configuration.

    Full Stack Storage

    Included by default

    One supported operating scope

    FSS includes facility administration, online rentals and payments, tenant self-service, digital agreements, Gate Code Management, pricing controls, billing, branded communication, and reporting within the supported platform scope.

    Configuration-dependent

    Core management is documented; package scope varies

    Sitelink publicly documents configurable workflows, reporting, rentals and payments, move-ins and move-outs, unit transfers, electronic leases, audits, dashboards, one-site and multi-site operation, and third-party integrations. The final scope depends on the selected Storable products, integrations, and Order Form.

  5. Q-05

    Are the commercial terms guaranteed or left to the Order Form?

    Confirm the published price, cancellation timing, guarantee, add-ons, and which terms remain negotiable or Order Form-dependent.

    Full Stack Storage

    Guaranteed in writing

    No fixed-term contract

    Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current paid period. Annual prepayments are not prorated. FSS also publishes its Founders Rate, ongoing rate, $0 transaction markup, and 60-day subscription guarantee.

    Order Form-dependent

    Actual subscription term is set by the Order Form

    Sitelink’s public product FAQ says it is billed monthly, requires a monthly commitment, and may be cancelled at any time. Its Terms of Service say the applicable Order Form sets the actual subscription term; if no different term is stated, the service renews month-to-month. Unless otherwise agreed, termination for convenience requires 15 days’ written notice. A public rate schedule or subscription guarantee was not found in the reviewed sources.

  6. Q-06

    What does migration and launch support include, and what happens to data at exit?

    Confirm who performs the migration, what launch work is included, what the facility must provide, and how records can be retrieved if the service ends.

    Full Stack Storage

    Guaranteed in writing

    Full migration and launch support included

    FSS migrates the agreed available records needed to operate the facility in FSS, then configures the facility, reconciles the imported data, trains the operator, verifies renter and staff paths, and coordinates launch. The facility provides usable source exports and helps resolve missing or inconsistent source records.

    Data at exit

    Facility records, reports, and supported exports remain available during service. FSS has not yet published a post-cancellation retrieval window or deletion schedule.

    Configuration-dependent

    Migration assistance, support, and training are documented

    Sitelink says a dedicated team helps transfer existing business information; its Terms include basic support and standard training with a paid subscription, while migration, configuration, implementation, and other supplemental services may be separately ordered.

    Data at exit

    The Terms say the customer retains ownership of its data. They also say that after expiration or termination, affected services may be deactivated immediately and Sitelink has no obligation to continue storing the data or allow retrieval. Confirm the export process and timing before giving notice.

  7. Q-07

    Is the renter-facing online rental experience included, or does it depend on another website or product?

    Confirm whether live availability and online move-ins are part of the management subscription or require a separate website, marketplace, or integration.

    Full Stack Storage

    Included by default

    Included

    Full Stack Storage includes a hosted, facility-branded rental experience. A separate website project is not required to show availability and accept online rentals.

    Additional product required

    The documented renter-facing path uses another Storable product or integration

    Sitelink provides the management platform. Storable documents websites, online reservations, move-ins, payments, and the tenant portal through the separate Storable Websites product, while Sitelink also supports third-party integrations. Confirm which renter-facing path is included in the quoted package.

Fit check

A candid fit check.

FSS may be a good fit when…

  • You want commercial terms published before the sales conversation.
  • You want no fixed-term contract guaranteed in writing.
  • You want FSS to take no cut of your payment processing.
  • You want facility branding guaranteed in writing across the renter experience.
  • You already have an access model that works and do not want the management platform tied to a hardware purchase.
  • You want full migration, configuration, training, and launch verification included in writing.

Another approach may fit better when…

  • You require a specific third-party integration that has not yet been verified.
  • You prefer a larger ecosystem of separately selected products and integrations.
  • You want management software paired with Sentinel’s established keypads, door alarms, remote access, lighting control, or elevator control hardware.
  • You want a marketplace that acquires renters on your behalf.
  • You require a product or implementation model outside FSS’s supported scope.

Sources and comparison methodology

Review scope

Written commitments and first-party provider sources.

Full Stack Storage’s written commitments are sourced from maintained public commercial terms, public launch commitments, and product-scope documentation. We compare the standard published offer and written commercial commitments. Optional products and configurable capabilities are identified separately rather than treated as included by default. Product-specific Terms are shown alongside marketing claims; the customer Order Form controls where those Terms say it does. Monthly subscription fees, reservation-linked fees, payment-processing economics, and optional service fees are evaluated as separate claims.

Missing information

Unknown stays unknown.

“Not stated” means the reviewed public source did not provide the information. It does not mean the capability or term is unavailable. Products, programs, configurations, and negotiated terms can change; confirm them directly with the provider.

Product taxonomy

Storable products are compared separately.

Storable offers multiple management platforms. This comparison treats Sitelink by Storable and Storable Edge as separate products and does not use either one as a proxy for the full Storable suite.
