Equipment commonly financed

Assets used in office & technology

Examples include the equipment below. Eligibility depends on commercial use, transaction size, condition, seller and lender requirements.

  • Business computers and workstations
  • Servers and storage systems
  • Networking and telecommunications hardware
  • Security and access-control systems
  • Point-of-sale systems
  • Commercial printing and production equipment
  • Conference-room and collaboration systems
  • Office furniture and workstations
  • Eligible hardware and software bundles

Separate durable hardware from subscriptions and services

Technology quotes often mix hardware, licences, implementation, managed services and support. Lenders usually place the most weight on durable, identifiable equipment, so an itemized proposal is essential.

Rapid obsolescence can influence the available term. The useful life of the hardware, vendor quality, warranty, implementation plan and borrower’s existing operations all help determine whether the request is financeable.

Qualification is transaction-specific. Merrit Capital does not promise approval, rates, down payment, term or funding time before a lender has reviewed the borrower, asset and documents.

Common financing scenarios

Where financing often fits

The business purpose should be specific enough to show how the equipment supports capacity, reliability or a defined service.

Refresh end-of-life infrastructure

Replace unsupported servers, workstations or network hardware through one planned rollout.

Equip a new location

Package durable technology, communications, security and office equipment for a documented opening.

Add production capability

Finance higher-value print, security, telecom or specialized business systems tied to revenue or capacity.

Prepare the request

Information that helps a lender understand the deal

Not every item is required in every transaction, but these details frequently matter in office & technology.

  • Hardware specifications and useful life
  • Vendor and warranty support
  • Durable equipment versus subscriptions
  • Implementation and migration schedule
  • New location versus established operation
  • Security, privacy and compliance responsibilities

Industry questions

Business technology financing FAQ

Can computers and servers be financed?

Commercial computer, server and storage packages may be considered when the request is large enough, itemized and supported by the business use.

Can software be financed?

Some bundled or perpetual software may be considered within a broader hardware transaction. Recurring subscriptions, consulting and support are lender-specific and may not be eligible.

Do you finance point-of-sale systems?

Durable POS hardware and related commercial equipment may qualify. Transaction size, supplier, asset mix and business history matter.

Can office furniture be included?

Commercial furniture may be considered as part of an eligible office package, subject to lender guidelines and the proportion of soft costs.

How does fast technology obsolescence affect financing?

The expected useful life and resale value can influence term and structure. Current, commercially supported hardware is generally easier to assess than outdated or consumer-grade equipment.
