Frequently Asked Questions

TimePayment understands that leasing may be new to you and that you may have questions about how our process works.

In our effort to save you time, we have provided a list of common questions and answers we get from dealers seeking to learn more about TimePayment leasing.

Q.
What makes you different from every other leasing company?
A.
TimePayment utilizes a Proprietary Credit Scoring Model and Risk Adjusted Pricing, which allows us to approve a broader range of credits, including start-up businesses and challenged credit histories. Other leasing companies utilize a “pass/fail” credit scoring model that excludes new businesses and challenged credit histories.

Q.
How do I become an approved dealer?
A.
You can either complete a Vendor Application or call a Business Development Manager at 877-868-3800. We will respond to your application within 48 hours.

Q.
Do you offer financing to consumers?
A.
Yes. TimePayment offers both consumer and commercial leases.

Q.
Can you do start-up businesses?
A.
Yes. In fact, TimePayment specializes in start-up businesses.

Q.
How much money down do you require?
A.
Our standard pricing program requires only one advance payment on the lease.

Q.
Can you do progress payments?
A.
We offer our Progress Payment Product for most equipment types. Please call a Business Development Manager at 877-868-3800 to confirm its availability for your equipment.

Q.
Do you offer $1.00 buyouts?
A.
Yes. TimePayment offers a Credit Scorer A Lease Factor with a $1.00 buyout for established businesses in most states. This program is not available in AL, IL, MI, MN, NC, ND, TX, or VT; however, our Fair Market Value A rate is offered in these states.

Q.
Why do you need the customer’s personal information on the lease application?
A.
Personal information is required on the lease application in order for TimePayment to make credit decisions on newer businesses. It is also needed for established businesses if Dun & Bradstreet reports do not provide significant data.

Q.
How quick is your credit process?
A.
Our online system, TimePayment Direct, makes credit decisions for applications less than $10,000 in less than 2 minutes, and credit decisions for applications greater than $10,000 within 4 hours.

We fund your lease transactions the same day as we receive your Lease Funding Package. We quality control the transaction document, contact the customer to verify the delivery & acceptance of the equipment, and fund you.

Q.

Q.     What additional information is required for Sole
         Proprietors?

          sole proprietors. We will accept business
          license, secretary of state listing, or business
          tax processing form.

Q.      Are there any additional requirements?
A.       All lessees must have a verifiable working business
          phone number.

Q.     When are lessees required to supply a Direct Debit
         payment for lease payments?
