Pick the vacation rental the whole group wants
Group trips stall on the rental. Everyone has a favorite listing and nobody wants to be the one who books the wrong place. Add your shortlist to a Rankd, send the link, and let everyone rank them. Book the place the group ranked highest overall.
- Beach house with pool
- Downtown loft
- Cabin with hot tub
- Big house, longer drive
Free. Edit the options, then send one link to your group.
Why ranking beats a regular poll here
- Everyone weighs price, location, and space differently; ranking captures all of it.
- Second choices count, so the group lands on a place nobody hates.
- It settles it quickly, before the listing gets booked by someone else.
How it works
- Add the question and 3 to 30 options
- Send one private link to the group
- Everyone ranks privately, in about a minute
- You reveal the winner
Tips
- Name each option so it’s easy to recognize, and add a photo of each listing.
- Paste the listing links in the group chat next to the Rankd link.
- Set a short deadline so you can book before prices change.
Questions
How many listings should I add?
Three to six. If you have more, cut the ones that don’t fit the budget or dates first.
Can people see how I ranked?
No. Each person’s order stays private. Everyone sees the group’s final order and where they personally landed, never anyone else’s individual ranking.
Is it free? Does everyone need the app?
Rankd is free and runs in the browser, so there is nothing to download. Friends open the link from any group chat (iMessage, WhatsApp, Slack, email) and rank in about a minute.
