Multi-lender finance provider Deko entered a strategic partnership with Shire Leasing, an independent B2B funding specialist in the UK. Shire Leasing is the first B2B finance lender to be integrated into Deko’s platform, offering a way for business equipment merchants to integrate leasing finance options at checkout.
“Deko have built an extensive B2C lending panel, and we’re excited to be including Shire Leasing as our first B2B lender,” Dugan Heaton, commercial director of Deko, said. “We chose to partner with them as their solution serves a market that is currently underserved and their focus on a seamless customer experience aligns well with Deko’s offering.”
“Shire Leasing has been delivering finance solutions to UK businesses since 1990. Over the years, we have witnessed how e-commerce platforms have redefined B2C shopping with streamlined processes and payment simplicity. Click2Finance is the first solution to mirror those online shopping customer experience expectations in a business capacity,” Mark Picken, CEO of Shire Leasing, said. “We’re thrilled to partner with Deko and leverage their extensive e-commerce expertise to enable B2B equipment vendors the option to integrate business leasing options at checkout alongside existing payment options. The partnership will help to increase overall sales conversions in the online B2B marketspace and improve accessibility to flexible finance options for UK SMEs looking to invest and grow affordably.”
