SIM only plans…the perfect match for leasing

Telecoms financing company Lease Telecom says the increase in demand for SIM Only plans in the business market is having a positive impact on finance sales.

30 day rolling contracts and 2GB tariffs starting from £12 p/month are proving popular as businesses follow consumer patterns.

Combining a £18 p/month iPhone lease makes for a very competitive and flexible proposition.

“We’ve done some modelling and found savings of £100 p/user in some cases. Coupling affordable SIM only plans with a handset lease offered by Lease Telecom is very compelling indeed.” Said Simon Fabb, Director of Lease Telecom.

“What’s more, with a handset lease there’s no upfront contribution – they simply start paying for the combined SIM only plan and handset repayment from month 1. Again, another coo for cash-flow.”

More partners are de-coupling airtime and handset costs as a way of keeping customers.

“Not all customers require new handsets at the turn of every renewal, so a low-commitment SIM Only offering is a great option to have in the interim. Knowing they can upgrade their devices at any time, over a term that suits is a great position to be in – especially when compared to traditional, lengthy airtime agreements.”

If you are a reseller looking to shift the risk and liability of handset sales to a third party, we urge you to get in touch today. We’ve performed extensive research on market propositions and are armed with live examples of how the decoupling of hardware and airtime can give you a significant competitive advantage.
