This is an excellent option offered by BitLendingClub and BTCPoint for an operator to get a BTM, though this is only offered for BTCPoint machines at this point. I do hope they add many more manufacturers if this model is successful for them. More options for the greater proliferation of BTMs globally are good for the entire ecosystem.

There are many reasons a business may choose to lease rather than finance their purchase. See our previous post above for a sample of these reasons: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=725585.msg8198667#msg8198667.

There are pros and cons to each method, and which method is best depends highly on the operator's individual needs, much as some businesses decide to purchase or finance their work vehicles, and some prefer to lease them.
