The sharing economy is seeing new, exciting changes each day as consumers seek cost-effective ways to rent instead of buy and make money off of what they already own, which is what brings us to Swimply. Positioned as the Airbnb for pools, the service enables consumers to rent private pool facilities from those who already have them for parties or get-togethers in the summer months. This also allows pool owners to more easily cover the maintenance costs that come with pool ownership to not feel as financially stressed.
Swimply offers a no-hassle way for swimmers to rent their very own facilities on a weekday or weekend and skip the lengthy process of pool ownership, which can be quite expensive and time-consuming.
