The Rise of Mobile Saunas
Interest in sauna culture is growing rapidly — people crave easy access to authentic, wood-heated saunas close to nature. From lakesides in Sweden to small harbors in Finland, more and more communities are discovering that self-service saunas make it possible to bring the experience closer to everyone.

Self-service technology is making this possible.
By adding digital booking and lock access, more saunas can now be placed by lakes, beaches, marinas, and campsites — without staff on-site.
For sauna builders and resellers, this opens a new market: saunas designed not just to be enjoyed, but to be rented out - automatically.
From Manual to Fully Automated Sauna Rentals
With Rentalbuddy, any sauna on wheels can become a self-service sauna that runs 24/7 — without manual handling or key exchanges.
Book online and via QR code on-site - customers select their time directly.
Pay instantly – Secure payments are processed automatically.
Get access – A digital lock code is sent to the customer’s phone.
Enjoy the sauna – When the customer is finished, the trailer is returned and locked. You see everything in real-time in your admin panel.

Whether your sauna is located at a beach, campground, or public pier, Rentalbuddy keeps the process simple, secure, and fully automated.
Smart Locks for Both Sauna, Trailer, and Woodshed
Rentalbuddy integrates seamlessly with IglooHome digital locks, giving your customers full control and flexibility:
Door lock: for saunas parked at a fixed location or pickup area.
Trailer lock: for mobile saunas that customers tow home or bring to events.
Woodshed lock: many operators use two locks — one for the sauna and one for the woodshed or firewood storage.
Each booking generates a unique, time-limited code, giving every user secure access — and keeping the owner in control without handing over keys.s.

A New Way to Add Value to Every Sauna
