Digital signage can deliver an impressive return on investment, but we appreciate that the initial purchase and installation costs can be significant. We work with a partner called Bluestone that offers finance for digital signage and can help businesses spread their costs over time. Here’s what they say.
Introducing finance
Finance can be a powerful tool for businesses of all sizes in just about every sector.
Finance can deliver greater financial flexibility as you pay a regular, affordable, fixed amount in return for exactly what your organisation needs to operate and grow.
Finance keeps working capital in the bank, establishing a stronger balance sheet and easing cashflow.
What’s more, for some organisations, financing investments in digital signage can unlock powerful tax benefits not otherwise available when using cash.
Why consider using finance for your digital signage?
Retain capital in your business
Locking capital away in depreciating assets is no longer necessary. Free up cash to be deployed elsewhere, working harder for your organisation and delivering true returns.
Accelerate your growth plans
Make investment decisions based on your needs and not limited by constrained budgets which might otherwise restrict what you can achieve.
Spread cost & risk
Finance allows you to match your costs in line with the return on investment of your projects minimising the risk to your business.
100% financing available
Combine all your project costs, including fees, labour, and delivery charges into one low, fixed monthly payment.
Tax savings available
For private sector organisations, finance provides a highly attractive, 100% tax deductible solution. Those that are subject to higher tax rates have even more to save.
Fixed costs to help you budget
Your payments are affordable and fixed for the duration of the agreement, so there are no hidden surprises or exposure should interest rates rise in the future.

Considerations when using finance for your digital signage
Although finance can bring several benefits, Bluestone is committed to ensuring that we only arrange finance that is in your organisation’s best interests; we are committed to transparency in the services we provide. With that in mind, before committing to a finance agreement, here are some factors to consider.
Interest and fees
Financing will involve paying interest and, in some cases, other fees may be applicable, but the interest will be fixed and covered in your repayment schedule and any other fees agreed, so you will have full visibility.
Legal obligations
Finance is a fixed financial agreement, i.e., if you agree to a 5-year repayment plan, you have a legal obligation to make all the payments in full and in a timely manner. Failure to do so could put you or your organisation in a position of increased financial obligation. Your account manager will work with you to ensure you do not commit to anything that is unaffordable.
Terms and conditions
It is essential that you read and fully understand what you are agreeing to before committing to any finance agreement. Be sure to examine the terms and conditions thoroughly and ask your Bluestone account manager if you have any questions.
What type of equipment are you investing in?
In the case of asset finance, it is important to know that it may not be the most cost-effective option if you are investing in assets that will appreciate in value.
The Bluestone Portal
Securing the finance that you need to move forward does not need to be a complex or lengthy process.
Whether you are looking for an instant (no-obligation) quote or want to submit a finance application, Bluestone’s innovative online system, the Bluestone Portal, makes the task simple and quick.
