Hire Purchase

A contract where you acquire the machine by making an initial deposit followed by regular instalments over an agreed period. Unlike lease hire, with hire purchase you gradually gain ownership of the asset, and once the final payment is made, ownership is transferred to you.

This method is beneficial for those who prefer to own the asset at the end of the term whilst spreading the cost over time. Hire Purchase combines the benefits of using the asset immediately with the eventual benefit of ownership. It is your responsibility to cover any maintenance, servicing, or repairs to the machine to manufacturer warranty standards over the term of the contract.

During the contract period should you wish to upgrade, the asset can be off set against any outstanding finance. Any equity can be used in the purchase of a new machine or retained.

  • Flexible: choose a repayment structure that suits your business.
