# Flat Rate

The **Flat-rate rendering type** enables vendors to offer services that are booked based on a predefined experience. In this model, the vendor provides a detailed listing description that includes information about the service and its total fixed duration.

Customers can only select the start date and time, as the total duration is predetermined by the vendor. The end time is automatically calculated by adding the fixed duration to the selected start time.

If the vendor has more services in the same listing, customers can book multiple services within the same listing and complete payment for all selected services in a single transaction. The total duration would be the combined amount of time for all the booked services. 

For example, a vendor offering a Ferrari driving experience in Paris would need to provide details about the experience, including pricing and the total duration in hours.
