21/01/2025

Choosing your next tech upgrade—a new laptop, TV, or smartphone—can be exciting, but figuring out how to afford it can be challenging, depending on your circumstances. Whether you’re shopping for an upcoming school semester, refreshing your entertainment setup, or getting a new device to meet your tech needs, Acima Leasing is here to help.  

In this article, we’ll explain how lease-to-own can be your go-to shopping solution. Let’s explore how Acima Leasing can make getting the electronics you want easier without the hassle! 

What is Acima Leasing? 

 Lease-to-own, or LTO, is an alternative to using cash or financing while shopping for items like electronics, furniture, appliances or jewelry. With the growing demand for alternatives to financing, Acima Leasing offers a lease-to-own solution that meets this need. With Acima Leasing, there is a new way to shop and a pathway to ownership for electronics and tech devices without using credit. * 

Instead of lending you cash, Acima Leasing purchases the item on your behalf and leases it to you. Then, it’s up to you how you’d like to work toward owning that item with your lease renewal payments. 

The best part? You can handle everything easily through our mobile app, online, or in-store at one of the thousands of retailers across the country that work with Acima Leasing. Acima Leasing offers a straightforward, easy way to get the items you need and want for your lifestyle.
