Why choose the ELEVATE financing solution?
The ELEVATE financing solution allows you to equip your business with new or recent material handling equipment without tying up your cash flow. The duration is set by contract, and you pay regular rental fees in return for the use of the equipment, according to a payment frequency tailored to your needs (monthly, quarterly).
Your contract may be extended depending on your activity. Various options regarding the end of the contract and ownership of the equipment are available and proposed to you at the time of signing.
By choosing the ELEVATE financing solution, you preserve your cash flow to allocate it to your strategic investments (development, inventory, innovation...). Rental payments are recorded as operating expenses, with no asset capitalization or debt, which also improves your balance sheet.

What are the benefits of the ELEVATE financing solution for my cash flow?
The
ELEVATE financing solution is an ideal option to preserve the financial health of your business.
Instead of purchasing material handling equipment upfront, which would tie up a significant portion of your cash flow, you opt for
rental payments spread over time. This allows you to:
- Preserve your liquidity for other priorities (salaries, inventory, development...)
- Avoid bank debt: no loan, no credit line used
- Anticipate and control your expenses thanks to fixed monthly payments
- Improve your balance sheet: rental payments are recorded as expenses rather than fixed assets, lightening your financial structure
In summary, you equip your business
without tying up your cash flow, while keeping your
investment capacity intact.

What documents and prerequisites are required to finalize your contract?
To benefit from the
ELEVATE financing solution, the process is simple and secure. Here are the
documents required to complete your application:
- A company registration extract less than 3 months old
- The latest balance sheet and income statement
- A company bank account details (RIB)
- A valid ID of the company director
The submission of these documents is done via a
secure online platform. You will receive an
access link by email once you have configured your machine on the ELEVATE website. This email exchange is essential to ensure the
security and confidentiality of communications.
Once your documents are uploaded, our teams process your application within
48 hours.
Once approved, a
machine proposal matching your needs is submitted, and you can
sign the contract immediately via e-signature on a secure link to start your rental quickly.

Why are these documents required? Is my application processed quickly?
These documents are essential to allow us to
validate your request for the ELEVATE financing solution. They enable us to:
- Verify the legal existence of your company
- Quickly assess your ability to meet rental payments
- Establish a clear and transparent relationship of trust
Unlike a bank loan,
the procedure is much lighter.
You will not face lengthy reviews, personal guarantee requests, or the use of credit lines. At ELEVATE,
only 4 documents are required, and everything is handled
online via a secure platform, for processing within 48 hours.
This approach saves you time, reduces administrative burden, and allows you to
focus on what matters most: your business.
▼
What happens if I need maintenance intervention for the equipment?
With ELEVATE, you can
choose between two maintenance options depending on your needs.
You may decide not to include maintenance in the contract:
- You are then free to choose your own service provider
- Or even handle maintenance yourself, if you have the internal skills
In this case,
you assume technical responsibility for the equipment throughout the rental period.
This is a flexible solution that requires proper maintenance to ensure optimal machine operation until the end of the contract and eventual ownership of the equipment.
You may also choose to include a
preventive maintenance plan directly in your monthly rental payment, in which case:
- A certified local partner intervenes according to a defined schedule
- All essential servicing is planned in advance
- You ensure equipment availability, with full maintenance traceability
This solution guarantees a
regular, professional, and worry-free follow-up, ideal for preserving the value of the equipment you will own at the end of the contract.
▼

▼
Can I adapt or evolve my ELEVATE financing solution?
In principle, the ELEVATE financing solution is based on a contract established for specific equipment and a defined rental period from the outset. However, at ELEVATE, we know your needs may evolve.
This is why we
review each situation on a case-by-case basis. You benefit from a dedicated contact who may offer, under certain conditions:
- Early return of the equipment,
- Implementation of a new contract with more suitable equipment,
- Or any other personalized solution based on your needs.
Our goal is to support you with
flexibility and responsiveness.
These topics can also be
anticipated from the start by discussing them with an
ELEVATE professional, allowing us to
adapt the contract to your growth plans.
