Should I purchase or lease equipment?

If you can afford to pay up front for the equipment that you are looking to obtain, you should definitely do it. Purchasing will save you a considerable amount over leasing.

These are a sample of the difference in price between leasing and purchasing. These prices do not necessarily reflect our exact leasing rates, but will compare the low end industry standard lease price to our purchase price.

These lease rates reflect the low end of what is available in the industry.

The bottom line is that even if a lease sounds like a good deal you will still spend much more than if you outright purchase the equipment. Most leases are non-cancelable, and may or may not include a buyout option at the end where you will be required to pay a percentage of the cost of the terminal. We have seen merchants using other companies with a buyout option of the total cost of the terminal that they are leasing.
