Case Study
Reality Finance and Guestline keeping Hotel Sector ahead of the game
Reality Finance have worked with Guestline since 2018, offering affordable and easy payment plans across their full suite of products and services. From Guestlines intuitive point of sale tools to fully integrated channel management solutions, customers from the Hotel Sector have the option to balance their payments monthly, as the solution is being used.
Same Day Funding on EPOS Terminals
Fast funding decisions are crucial for the Hotel Sector. Last month Reality financed 26 EPoS Terminals for a Portsmouth Hotel with training and project management wrapped into the same payment plan. Reality were able to provide acceptance and within hours, giving the customer piece of mind they could start using their solution without delay - and without having to dip into vital cash reserves.
Neil Whitear, specialist Account Manager at Reality Finance arranged the finance on behalf of the company:
I was introduced to this customer by Guestline who were in need of new EPoS terminals for their hotel business. The customer was considering paying cash upfront but due to disrupted trading in recent times due to Covid, they felt more comfortable keeping cash reserves for a rainy day. After speaking with the customer, I was able to offer payment terms the same afternoon and documentation was sent out that very day.
“Reality Finance provide competitive lease rates enabling our customers to spread the cost of purchasing new equipment with our Easy Payment scheme. They are happy to talk directly with our customers and offer expert financial advice. In this difficult economic climate, we are looking to build on our relationship to make purchasing even easier for our customers.”
Mark Jackson-Nichols , Director, Loma Systems
Having Reality Finance as a partner has enabled our customers to invest in our tray sealing lines which is vital capital equipment that has enabled them to grow their businesses and improve efficiencies much quicker than if they had waited to generate the cash to pay for these assets.
We have always found the team at Reality Finance to be extremely responsive and supportive of us and our joint customers through the whole purchasing process, making it as smooth and swift as possible.
