Industry 4.0 meets finance

Why choose Pay-per-Use Financing?

Choosing Linxfour's Pay-per-Use model offers significant advantages for equipment manufacturers without operational changes. Manufacturers sell equipment directly to Linxfour, rather than dealing with equipment operators. In this arrangement they receive the full selling price and sales commissions upfront, eliminating credit and underutilization risks. Additionally, Pay-per-Use financing requires operators to sign long-term maintenance contracts, increasing after-sales revenue.

To attract more clients and increase equipment sales, it is important to keep up with industry trends. Offering flexible payment options, such as Equipment-as-a-Service, meets a growing customer demand.

Linxfour immediately pays the selling price of the equipment manufacturer, including sales commissions, and handles the Pay-per-Use contract with the operator.

Each Pay-per-Use financing agreement comes with a long-term maintenance contract, increasing after-sales revenue streams for equipment manufacturers.

Enjoy flexible payment offerings without credit or underutilization risk. Linxfour takes these on, leaving equipment manufacturers free of non-core risks.

At Linxfour we’re committed to delivering a seamless experience. Expect to see a quote, complete with preliminary credit checks, within 72 hours of initial enquiry.

Testimonials

Pay-per-Use from Linxfour is an interesting financing model. Our customers have demanded this utilization-oriented form of financing more and more, especially since the 2022 energy crisis."

Our current Pay-per-Use customers have had very positive experiences with Linxfour's financing model so far, both in the course of the consultation, during processing and ongoing support. The off-balance sheet financing is one of the biggest advantages for our customers."

If the operator can share some risk, that is always a good thing. The carwash industry has a natural fluctuation due to weather conditions. So, this is often an issue for operators. After all, the risk of a rainy peak month with no revenue and fixed financing costs makes extra financial security quite desirable. With Pay-per-Wash in cooperation with Linxfour we are now able to offer a payment option to mitigate this risk."

Especially in times of unpredictable and volatile market demand, measures to minimise the risk of underutilisation come increasingly into focus. flexPay from KraussMaffei and Linxfour provides an effective solution."

At present, issues such as inflation and rising energy prices are dominating everyday business life. With "Heat-Exchange-as-a-Service" users can integrate heat exchange solutions for heat recovery into their processes in a plannable and cost-efficient manner without having to invest CAPEX through the cooperation with Linxfour. It was important to us to ensure a maximum product lifecycle and that our customers can rely on a carefree heat exchange service so that they can focus on their core processes."

The biggest advantage lies in the variable risk models. Customers decide themselves whether to hedge the under-utilisation of their investment, thanks to Linxfour’s Pay-per-Use model. Particularly interesting, therefore, is that customers have lower financing costs when their equipment is underutilized."
