What is Business Leasing? FAQ's
Leasing rates are based on several factors, including the value of the fitness equipment, the contract duration, the estimated residual value of the item at the end of the term, and financing costs. Specific conditions such as down payments or service packages can also influence the rates.
Yes, we offer a purchase option at the end of the term. This corresponds to the residual value of the equipment at the end of the term.
In principle, this is possible. Early return may incur additional costs, as the lease agreement has a fixed term.
In Germany, lease payments are fully tax-deductible as business expenses.
We can certainly factor in a down payment or a special payment at the beginning. However, this is not mandatory. The down payment will reduce the amount of the monthly installments. The requirements, however, may vary depending on the type of contract and credit assessment.
When leasing, you pay monthly installments for using the fitness equipment without owning it. At the end of the contract, you can return the equipment, take ownership, or upgrade to a new model. Maintenance is included by ATLETICA, and the payments are tax-deductible.
With financing (installment payments), you acquire the fitness equipment through monthly payments that also include interest. After full payment, the equipment is yours, but you are responsible for maintenance and repairs. Leasing offers flexibility, while financing is focused on long-term ownership.
The accounting is done by ATLETICA.
The lease payments are gross rates, meaning VAT is applicable during the term.
Yes, after the basic rental period, purchasing the equipment is generally possible.
With financing, VAT is generally applied to the full amount and must be paid upfront. For a financing amount of EUR 20,000, the VAT is EUR 3,193 (with a VAT rate of 19%), which must be paid in advance. An initial payment of EUR 5,000 would mostly consist of the VAT.
