What is "flexirent"

Flexirent Capital Pty Ltd. or more commonly Flexirent, is an Australian consumer leasing service of business and consumer electronics and is the primary product of FlexiGroup. The Flexirent service is offered by numerous computer and IT equipment retailers, however has been strongly associated with Australian retailer Harvey Norman since Flexirent's successful 12-month trial in its Brisbane stores in 1995. Flexirent and other similar lending products have been criticised for financial over-commitment and confusion about the leasing or rent-to-buy contracts signed by customers.
