Laptop Rental for Remote Coding Sessions


For your coding session, you will require a laptop running the appropriate coding and remote access software.

If you'd prefer to avoid installing software on your own device, or you don't have a suitable laptop, we offer a convenient laptop rental service.

Pay the rental fee and a returnable deposit, and we'll ship a preconfigured Windows laptop to you, set up and ready to use for your remote coding session. When you're done, just ship it back to us with our prepaid label.

If you need a coding cable for your session, you can also rent one for an additional fee.
