Weekly Microsoft Financing calls announced for Microsoft Partners

  • Article

One of the great resources available to customers and Microsoft Partners is Microsoft Financing, where Microsoft will finance all of the hardware, software, and Partner services for IT projects involving Microsoft solutions. This provides spread payments over 36 months for all included items for the customer and it provides payment to the Partner in as little as 72 hours for the full deal amount. A positive cash flow outcome for both sides of the equation!
