Lease.
Leasing is a way to hire new business assets to assist with new projects, update existing equipment or expand a business without needing to pay for everything upfront.
Instead, the assets can be paid for while they are making money for the business, by way of regular ‘rental’ payments over a fixed or minimum lease period.
Key benefits include
- Decision within 24 hours
- Fixed payments not affected by interest rate rises
- No large deposits
- Tax efficient
- Payment in advance of equipment delivery is possible (subject to credit approval)
- Other credit lines remain untouched
Hire Purchase.
This method of funding offers a way to invest in new equipment, with the asset being paid for as it generates income for the business (similarly to leasing). At the end of the agreement period (once all contracted instalments have been paid) there is then the option to complete the purchase of the equipment.
Key benefits include
- Decision within 24 hours
- Fixed payments not affected by interest rate rises
- No large deposits
- Tax efficient
- Payment in advance of equipment delivery is possible (subject to credit approval)

Proposals for this funding will be considered where the original invoice is available and for equipment no more than five years old.
Key benefits include
- Decisions possible within 24 hours
- Provides capital for other uses
- Can provide additional tax deductions
- Advantageous when equipment supplier is based outside the UK
