Get the equipment you need now ..... And pay as you go

With no deposit and small monthly payments Flexirenting enables you to obtain equipment with the performance you need and spread the cost of using it over its productive life.

Compared to buying and owning, Flexirent gives you much more control over your changing IT needs. You have the flexibility to update to new equipment quickly and easily – even before the end of the rental term. If you Flexirent multiple items and only wish to update one item, this is easy to arrange.

You can bundle all your computing needs in one agreement:

Benefits of Flexirenting for business

Compared to buying and owning, Flexirent gives you much more control over your changing IT needs. You have the flexibility to update to new equipment quickly and easily - even before the end of the rental term.

Tax deductible payments

As the equipment is to be used predominately for work purposes (even at home), your rental payments will be tax deductible, making it a very cost effective way to pay.

Keep pace with technology!

When you Flexirent your computer, it means you can get a new computers every one, two or three years – or when it suits you. It means you can upgrade quickly and easily should your needs change without drawing on your working capital.

Cash flow friendly payments

Flexirenting enables you to manage your cash flow with monthly payments. This allows you to conserve your vital working capital and put it to better use, such as towards your mortgage or the purchase of stock.

Easy Accounting

Your fixed rental payments are treated as an operating expense item and are easily managed on a month-to-month basis, making accounting simple.

No Deposit

There is no deposit required – you simply pay the first month's rental, then you take the equipment away. Flexirent automatically deducts the remaining payments on a monthly basis from your bank account or credit card.

Flexirent a total solution

Bundle all your computing needs in one agreement: computer, software, an approved extended warranty, and peripherals such as multi-functions, printers, scanners, digital cameras, network servers. Even installation and training.

Get the equipment you need now ..... and pay as you go

With Flexirent, you're not restricted by the limits of your cash or credit card. What's more, there is no deposit. By selecting the rental term that matches the use-by date of the equipment, you can spread the cost of the equipment over its productive life – one, two, three or four years.

End of term options .... It's your choice

Flexirent's end of term options give you the flexibility to manage your changing IT needs.

Need more than $20,000 in IT equipment over the next 12 months?

Many businesses have a policy of progressive upgrades, or upgrade in batches. If you will require more than $20,000 worth of IT equipment over the next 12 months you should enquire about FlexiLine. FlexiLine works like a line of leasing credit in much the same way as an overdraft. You are pre-approved then you can acquire equipment progressively to you agreed limit. Draw downs can be as little as $1,000 making the facility extremely convenient.

IMPORTANT: If you wish to add computer equipment or peripherals to your initial Agreement you can do so. This will be subject to a new credit check at the time. 'Add-ons' as they are referred to, must be for equipment costing more than $500 and the rate would be calculated on the value of the add-on, which could be at a higher rate. So it is smarter to get all of your gear at the one time and benefit from the lower rates.

Choose Flexirent Protect Platinum for total peace of mind.

It's common sense that you won't want to keep paying for something that has been stolen, lost or damaged. For a small additional amount, Flexirent Protect Platinum will protect you in the event that your rented equipment is stolen, accidentally lost or damaged* in Australia, New Zealand or anywhere else in the world during a trip of not more then 28 days duration.

With Flexirent Protect Platinum you do not have to go through the hassle of getting the Equipment insured, it is all taken care of and it provides additional peace of mind in the case of involuntary unemployment, disablement, terminal illness or death.

Extra care needed for portable equipment

Always keep portable equipment in a safe place. Do not leave it unattended in a public place or in an unoccupied vehicle, unless the vehicle is locked. The equipment must be out of sight in a locked compartment permanently fixed to the vehicle. The equipment may not to be covered by Flexirent Protect Platinum or your own insurance policy if you fail to ensure that equipment is kept safe and secure.
