Here's how we clear them. ### Hardware and Software Billed Separately We bundle terminals, KDS screens, kiosks, SaaS subscriptions, and installation into a single finance agreement — one payment instead of four vendor checks. ### Lease vs. Finance Is a Confusing Call We model both side by side based on your upgrade horizon. Lease keeps you on current hardware every 24 to 36 months. Finance-to-own makes sense at 5 years or more. ### Upfront Cost Blows Up One Quarter Spreading a full POS rollout over 36 to 60 months keeps the capital expense from hitting one period. The system pays for itself while you're still paying for it. ## POS and Restaurant Technology Financing Modern restaurants are tech-heavy. The POS isn’t a single terminal anymore — it’s terminals, handhelds, kitchen display screens, expo monitors, self-order kiosks, back-office laptops, scheduling and inventory software, and the SaaS subscriptions that tie them together. We finance the whole stack as one project, not seven separate purchase orders — the same way we approach restaurant financing across North Carolina [/ →](/) , structured around how operators actually buy. ## Hardware and Software, Bundled The most useful thing we do on technology financing is bundle hardware and software into a single agreement. The terminals, the kiosks, the cabling, the install, and the SaaS subscription that actually runs the operation all sit on one finance agreement. One predictable payment. No vendor relay race. ## Lease vs. Finance — Match It to Your Upgrade Horizon POS hardware ages fast. The right structure depends on how long you want to hold the equipment. - **Lease (24-48 months)** — Lowest monthly payment, return-or-upgrade at end of term, and you’re always on current-generation hardware. Good for high-volume operators who care about the latest features. - **Finance-to-own (36-60 months)** — Slightly higher payment, but you own the hardware at the end. Good for stable operators planning to keep the system 5+ years. We model both side by side so the decision isn’t a gut call. ![Server using a handheld POS tablet to take an order at a full-service restaurant](https://placehold.co/1400x900/131b2e/ffffff?text=Restaurant+server+handheld+POS+tablet+taking+order+table+full+service+evening+lighting) ## Self-Order Kiosks and the QSR Upgrade Self-order kiosks have moved from QSR experiment to standard hardware in two years. They drive average ticket up, free your team for kitchen and service, and pay back fast. Most operators finance the kiosk roll-out as one project — kiosks, mounts, cabling, payment integration, and the back-end software — to keep the cap-ex from blowing up a single quarter. ## End-of-Lease Options End-of-lease is where badly structured POS leases bite. We disclose every end-of-lease option upfront — buyout, upgrade, return, or extend — so there are no surprises. If the right path is to refresh to next-gen hardware, the upgrade path is built in. If you want to keep what you have, the buyout is fixed and known. ## Pre-Qualify in 60 Seconds. No Out-of-Pocket Fees on Working Capital.

From NC Operators ## What Restaurant Owners Say About Getting Financed ★★★★★ 4.9 based on hundreds served ★★★★★ > "Our walk-in went down on a Friday in Wilmington.

The process was transparent and the team was incredible to work with." Sarah T. Asheville, NC · Restaurant Working Capital FAQ ## Restaurant Financing FAQs What restaurant operators ask us most about this product. Talk to a Specialist [/contact/ →](/contact/) Can software subscriptions be financed alongside the hardware? + Yes. POS hardware and the SaaS subscription that runs it can be bundled into the same agreement so you have a single, predictable payment. Do you finance Toast and Clover specifically? + Yes. Toast, Clover, Square, Lightspeed, Aloha, and the long tail of restaurant POS systems are all on the table. We're vendor-agnostic. Should I lease or finance my POS? + Depends on your upgrade horizon. Lease makes sense if you want to be on the latest hardware every 24 to 36 months. Finance-to-own builds equity if you plan to keep the equipment 5+ years. We model both. Does this cover kitchen display systems and back-office tools? + Yes. KDS screens, expo monitors, back-office laptops, inventory and scheduling software, label printers — restaurant tech end to end. ## Other Financing Solutions Sometimes the right structure is a combination.
