Zyxel Communications, a provider of secure broadband networking, internet access and connected home products, entered an exclusive financing partnership with LEAF Commercial Capital.

The partnership with LEAF opens up new equipment financing options to value-added resellers (VARs) who are members of Zyxel’s two-tier Freedom Program. LEAF’s technology platform and streamlined financing processing will allow Zyxel’s valued channel partners to manage their cash flows and deliver Zyxel’s networking and security solutions to their customers without finance-related delays.

“We’re pleased that Zyxel has chosen us as their exclusive financing partner,” said Crit DeMent, CEO of LEAF. “We’re one of the leading independent finance companies in the manufacturing industry and have invested heavily in advanced financing technologies that will streamline sales and operations for both Zyxel and its customers.”

“We’re excited to be able to offer our valued partners the attractive financing options offered through this new partnership,” said Matt Dargis, vice president at Zyxel. “These financing options can ease cash flow restrictions for our partners and enable them to accelerate the sales process and deployment of solutions for their customers, ultimately stimulating growth of their businesses.”
