Leasing

When it comes to managing your assets, keeping your technology current and preserving your ability to make flexible equipment decisions, leasing your acquisition through IBM Global Financing (IGF) is easier to justify compared to the outright purchase of IT assets.

Leasing turns large upfront costs into affordable monthly payments while providing unmatched flexibility and protection from technology obsolescence. At the end of your contract, you have the option of extending your payments on a monthly basis, negotiating a new lease, buying the hardware outright at fair market value, or simply returning the hardware to us without incurring extra financing charges.

Flexible mid-lease offering give you the option of upgrading the system to increase capacity and extend its useful life, typically with little or no increase in your monthly payments.
