Microsoft Business Solutions has started flogging finance deals to UK businesses that cover complete systems including software, reseller services, ISV products and hardware.

Dubbed Total Solution Financing from Microsoft Capital Corporation, the finance is to be funnelled through qualified MS dealers only.

The scheme centres on fixed-rate financing, payable over an optional period of three, four, or five years.
The cost structure is calculated according to the number of users, with price breaks incorporated at several points for customers buying in higher volume and/or user seats, Microsoft says.

The company introduced financing options in the US last year and it says it will extend business financing to other countries in the coming year. ®
