Restaurant Equipment Financing vs Leasing—How They Work
Equipment Financing (EFA)
Spread the cost of kitchen and front-of-house equipment (chairs, tables, displays/cases, freezers) over time with fixed monthly payments.
Equipment Leasing (FMV)
Off-balance sheet structure. You make regular payments; often fully deductible as an operating expense. At term, purchase (e.g., 10% or FMV), return, or upgrade.
Both preserve cash flow, avoid large upfront costs, and keep your equipment current. Solutions may include maintenance, installation, delivery, and service agreements.

We vet vendors to protect our clients and can approve your company quickly. Contact us before you place a deposit so we can help verify the seller and prevent fraud.
What Funding Restaurant Owners Use to Expand
- Build-Out Capital: Leasehold improvements, construction, design, signage
- Equipment Financing/Leasing: Kitchen appliances, refrigeration, ovens, grills, POS, furniture
- Line of Credit: Cover seasonality and short-term expenses
- Payroll Funding: Keep staff paid during slowdowns
- Inventory Financing: Buy in bulk; smooth cash flow for ingredients and supplies
Restaurant Equipment App-Only Financing up to $250,000
Equipment is a core asset—keep it current. Loans and leases both work; leasing can add tax advantages, protect cash flow, fight inflation, and reduce obsolescence risk.
Not all lenders take high exposure on restaurants. Limits can range $50k–$100k+ depending on age/credit of the business. Be realistic and consider equity investors when appropriate.

FAQ: Restaurant Equipment Leasing
What credit score do I need?
Leasing programs often start around 600+, and financing programs around 650+. App-only programs extend to $250k for well-qualified applicants.
Can I include installation and delivery?
Yes—many programs allow up to ~120% to include soft costs like delivery, install, setup, and training (approval varies).
Is there a down payment?
Qualified borrowers may have $0 down. Startups or lower-credit profiles may need first/last or a security deposit.
Lease vs Finance—what should I pick?
If you upgrade frequently and want potential operating expense deductions, consider FMV leasing. If long-term ownership is the goal, an Equipment Finance Agreement or $1 buyout can make more sense. Always confirm tax treatment with your CPA.
How fast can I be funded?
Approvals can be next-day and funding as fast as 24 hours after final approval and documentation.
