External Services
This plugin connects to the following external services:
Bingorentals.com API (your own installation)
The plugin communicates with the BingoRentals API URL you configure in the settings. This is your own self-hosted or SaaS installation of BingoRentals. Data sent includes: search parameters (dates, location IDs, category), reservation details, and tenant slug. This data is sent whenever a visitor submits the search form or the fleet widget loads. You control this service — refer to your own privacy policy and terms.
ipapi.co (IP-based language detection)
When automatic language detection is enabled (default: on), the plugin sends the visitor’s IP address to ipapi.co to determine their country. This is used solely to select the default display language (Romanian for Romania/Moldova, English for all others). No personal data beyond the IP address is transmitted. Visitors can override the detected language manually at any time.
- Service URL: https://ipapi.co
- What is sent: visitor IP address (implicit in the HTTP request)
- When: on each page load where the booking form is displayed, if auto-detect language is enabled
- Terms of Service: https://ipapi.co/terms/
- Privacy Policy: https://ipapi.co/privacy/
To disable this feature, go to Settings BingoRentals and set Auto-detect Language to No.

常見問題集
-
What is BingoRentals?
-
BingoRentals is a car rental management system available in both standalone and multi-tenant (SaaS) editions. This plugin connects to your BingoRentals installation via API.
-
What is a tenant slug?
-
For SaaS installations, each company has a unique slug (e.g., “acme”). Find it in your dashboard URL: yoursite.com/app/acme/
-
Do I need an API key?
-
The API key is optional and depends on your installation. If your API requires authentication, enter the key in the plugin settings.
-
Why do locations disappear after some time?
-
This was fixed in v1.1.0. Locations are now cached for 1 hour. If you still have issues, click “Clear Cache” in plugin settings.
-
How does auto-language detection work?
-
The plugin detects visitor’s country via IP using ip-api.com. If the visitor is from Romania, it shows Romanian. Everyone else sees English. Visitors can override this with the language switcher, and their choice is remembered.
-
Can I disable auto-language detection?
-
Yes, set “Auto-detect Language” to “No” in plugin settings. The form will use your default language.
