Lease or Not to Lease

Lease Or Not To Lease

If you’re a retail business you’re going to need a credit card terminal to accept credit cards, and if you have multiple locations; you might need more than one terminal.

Obtaining terminals for your business with multiple locations can be expensive. Because of this, some merchants used leasing arrangements which they think that monthly leasing fee might seem like a bargain compared to the cost of buying a terminal.

One provision of the lease is: Non-Cancelable Lease  

Leases commonly have a 48-month (four-year) term, and a clause that makes the lease completely non-cancelable.

They also have a purchase option at the end of the lease. You must exercise your option to end the lease.

In a non-cancelable provision, they’ll keep deducting monthly leasing fees from your account regardless of anything, or an immediate payment of all remaining months of your contract if you break your lease.

In addition to monthly leasing fee, you’ll also pay sales tax and a monthly equipment insurance fee; while you can purchase it for as low as $150-$200.

Beware of free terminal offers, other providers will offer a free terminal, but they also charge higher monthly fees if you elect the free terminal. So the terminal isn’t really FREE.
