What purchase options are available?
There are several types of purchase options we offer:
| $1 Purchase: |
You can own the equipment at the end of the lease for $1. |
| Fair Market Value (FMV): |
This option allows the greatest flexibility because the equipment
can be returned, purchased, or extended to a new lease. |
| Balloon Payment: |
This option keeps the monthly payment low by deferring 10%-20%
of the equipment cost until the end of the lease. |
Can I finance any software?
SoftLease can finance all different types of software, from basic productivity
packages to full ERP or CRM systems.
Can I include shipping and maintenance on a
lease?
SoftLease will finance 100% of soft costs, which may include freight,
installation, maintenance, training, and even taxes.
What are the minimum requirements to apply?
Any U.S. business with a valid business license can apply. Companies
in business under two years are usually limited to $25,000.
May the equipment be returned at anytime?
No, the lease is a non-cancelable agreement for a specified term that
you select at the beginning of the lease. Leases are available for terms
ranging from 24 to 60 months (depending on equipment type), and often
can be added onto or upgraded.
Does it cost anything to apply for a lease?
No, SoftLease does not charge an application fee.
How do interest rate fluctuations affect lease
payments?
Interest rates will not change lease payments because the monthly payment
is fixed. This makes it easier to budget for your equipment acquisition.

situation. Contact us to discuss options available.
