Why LuggageHero Uses a Storage Timer System

Explore why a storage timer system is advantageous for partners.

Updated today

At LuggageHero, we strive to create solutions that benefit both travelers and our partner locations.


One of the most important features of our platform is the storage timer system, which enables fair, flexible, and optimized pricing for all luggage storage bookings.

This article explains why the timer system benefits partners and how it helps maximize average revenue per bag.


Purpose

To explain the advantages of using a storage timer system for LuggageHero partner locations, including its impact on pricing, revenue, and customer satisfaction.

Applies to

  • Platforms: LuggageHero and HotelsHero

  • Audience: Existing and New Partner Locations


1. Flexible pricing structure

Unlike fixed-fee models, which charge the same price per bag regardless of duration, a storage timer provides a dynamic, time-based pricing system.
This ensures that your revenue reflects the actual time a customer uses your storage service.

  • Fixed fee model: One flat rate per bag, regardless of duration.

  • Timer model: Pricing adjusts based on hours or days stored, aligning revenue with actual service time.


2. Optimizing revenue per bag

Time-based pricing

Partners earn more from customers who store luggage longer, directly increasing average revenue per bag.

This approach also prevents undercharging for extended stays and ensures accurate value capture.

Fair and transparent pricing

Customers pay only for the time their bags are stored.
This fairness strengthens trust, improves satisfaction, and encourages repeat use.

Higher turnover and utilization

When customers are billed based on duration, they tend to retrieve their bags promptly, freeing up space for new bookings.
This higher utilization allows partners to serve more travelers in the same time frame.


3. Benefits for customers

Cost control

Customers can decide exactly how long they want to store their luggage and pay accordingly.


Short-term users pay less, while long-term users pay proportionally more — offering flexibility for every traveler’s budget.

Incentive for short-term storage

For travelers who only need storage for a few hours, timer-based pricing provides a lower-cost option compared to a full-day fixed rate.

Fair pricing for extended stays

Customers who need longer storage can easily extend their time without paying multiple fixed-day fees.
This transparent structure reduces disputes and improves the customer experience.


4. Key partner advantages

  • Aligns revenue directly with time used

  • Increases average revenue per bag
