What is Business Hire Purchase?

Business Hire Purchase helps you to purchase an asset through regular fixed instalment payments, allowing you to grow your business while alleviating pressure on your cash flow. With Business Hire Purchase, you can spread the cost of purchasing new or updated equipment, technology and vehicles. On payment of a purchase instalment fee with your final payment, you will automatically own the asset.

Our Business Hire Purchase product offers you:

  • Minimum loan amount €10,000
  • 10% deposit/equity required
  • Payments can be structured to fit with your cash flow needs
  • Fixed interest rates1
  • Your business may be able to claim the available capital allowances
  • Your business may be able to offset the interest charges against trading profit
  • On payment of all instalments and a nominal purchase instalment of €63.33, you will automatically own the asset.

1 The Cost of Credit associated with this product will be higher for longer terms and lower for shorter terms. Alternative terms may be available to you. If the finance is arranged via a Motor Dealer, PTSB Asset Finance will pay commission to that Motor Dealer (acting as a Credit Intermediary) for new business finance originated through them. Commission will be calculated as a percentage of the amount borrowed.
