Frequently Asked Questions
Finance Lease vs Rental

QAi provides indicative quotes for two main Technology Finance options:

 

Technology Finance Lease (Lease to Own) – Pay over time with the intention of owning the equipment.

 

Technology Rental (Lease to Return) – Flexible use of technology without ownership, ideal for frequent upgrades.

 

Each option is designed to suit different business goals regarding ownership, flexibility, and technology refresh cycles.

A finance lease allows you to pay for technology over time with the intention of owning it at the end of the term. Once all contracted payments are made, ownership transfers to you for a small nominal fee (typically $1.00 ex GST).

A finance lease is typically best if your business:

 

Plans to use the technology long term

 

Does not require frequent upgrades

 

Prefers to retain ownership of assets

 

Wants predictable monthly payments without upfront capital outlay

A rental allows you to use technology for a fixed period without owning it. At the end of the term, the equipment is returned to the funder, giving you the flexibility to upgrade, extend, or refresh.

Rental is ideal if your business:

 

Has defined technology refresh cycles

 

Wants lower monthly payments

 

Prefers flexibility over ownership

 

Regularly upgrades hardware or software

 

Is focused on sustainability and reducing e-waste
