Financing

Apple have a range of education specific finance options available that help your school roll our devices efficiently. Using a rental agreement provides you with the option of placing more devices in the school by leasing rather than buying outright while also having upgrade paths available at the end of the term.

Flexible payment schedules can be developed around the school’s upgrade schedule while trade-in options and the choice of returning or buying the equipment at the end of the finance term are also available. If you would like more information on how your school can deploy more devices while also saving money, please get in touch with us.
