Yes, self checkouts are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £3,000 to £40,000, and most deals are written over 24–48 months with a deposit of around 10–20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityThis equipment qualifies for the Annual Investment Allowance, so a purchase or HP agreement can be deducted against taxable profit in the year of purchase. Finance lease payments are typically deductible in full from profit as they are paid, and refinancing an owned asset does not change its capital allowances position.
Self-checkout equipment is most often bought by multi-site retail and convenience chains rolling out lanes across an estate as part of a wider format change, rather than a single independent shop buying one unit, so the finance is typically sized around the rollout programme, so many lanes across so many stores by a target date, rather than one unit at a time. A card-only kiosk suits a convenience format wanting speed and minimal footprint, while a full grocery lane with cash handling and weighing scales is needed where a wide product range and cash-paying customers must be supported. Replacement is usually driven by a store refit, a move to a newer software platform no longer supported on older hardware, or a change in format from staffed to self-service tills, rather than the terminals failing.
Several of our 200+ lenders specialise in businesses with imperfect credit histories. You may need a larger deposit or personal guarantee, but options exist. Checking your options here does not affect your credit score, because we do not run a credit search to match you. A lender will run their own checks only if you decide to apply.
