Medela and Ameda/Hollister have different rules on how many "free" rentals a station can make per year based on the number of pumps they carry. The rental station is not charged "rental" for the grant pump for the time it is loaned free (usually 1 month), so no one loses money. Just a note. Medlea actually credits your pump rental account $20 the month when you have called them and asked to designate a pump a "grant pump". You have to call them each month and give them the pump's serial number, and then they give you the number of the credit memo (or something like that). It's made the difference between breastfeeding or nor for many or our moms whose babies have gotten off to a slow start with breastfeeding.
