  SpareFoot does not sell API or data-feed access as a metered developer
  product - there is no per-call or per-request price list because there is
  no self-serve API. What is priced is marketplace participation itself: a
  self-storage facility (or the software vendor integrating on its behalf)
  is charged for the leads/reservations SpareFoot's marketplace and its
  listing feed drive, not for calling an endpoint. Historically this was sold
  as "RentPercent" pricing - a percentage of the rent collected from each
  verified move-in, billed for the tenant's length of stay - a model
  third-party sources say is no longer offered to new SpareFoot clients.
  Current facility agreements are understood to be negotiated
  cost-per-reservation or percentage-of-rent arrangements set directly with
  SpareFoot/Storable's sales team; no public self-serve price list exists.
notes: >-
  2026-08-14 update: a FIRST-PARTY pricing statement was located this round, on
  SpareFoot's own facility-operator site at https://marketing.sparefoot.com/ (HTTP 200).
  It confirms the shape but publishes no numbers - listing is free with no signup fee,
  and the facility "costs nothing unless a customer we send you moves in", with the
  exact rate "based on storage demand in your area, as well as the amount of facilities
  we already have on the network in your area." That is a pay-per-move-in model quoted
  per market by sales, so there is still no self-serve price list, no rate card, and no
  per-call or per-request price of any kind. The older RentPercent detail below remains
  third-party-sourced (its support article is still 404) and should be treated as
  historical; verify current terms directly with SpareFoot/Storable sales.

    SpareFoot's own facility-operator site states the current model plainly: listing on
    the marketplace is free with no signup fee, and the facility pays only when a
    SpareFoot-referred customer actually moves in. No rate is published - "Your exact
    pricing is based on storage demand in your area, as well as the amount of facilities
    we already have on the network in your area" - so the number is quoted per market by
    SpareFoot's team. Sign-up is self-serve at https://my.sparefoot.com/signup-start.
