Terms offered are typically 18 or 30 months with the option to set up seasonal payments to help match your cash flow. Example: If you choose to finance for an 18-month term with the seasonality option you will make 6 months of payments followed by 6 months of no payments followed by making payments for the remaining 6 months.

We offer a $1 buyout option or a residual at the end of the contract based on a percentage of the purchase price. (typically 5% or 10%)

If you financed your Anchor equipment with the 0% finance program, there is no benefit to paying your loan off early. You will simply pay the sum of your remaining payments, plus the residual. The residual is either 5% or 10% of the initial purchase price of the equipment financed.
