Rent or buy an LED wall?

An LED wall is a large purchase. For many shops, restaurants, hotels and offices, renting one on a monthly contract is a better start. Here is how the two compare.

Buying

You pay for the screen, controller, structure and installation up front, and the wall is yours for its whole life. Maintenance is your cost, or covered by an AMC. Buying suits a site you own and plan to use for years, with steady use every day.

Renting (fixed installation)

With our fixed installation, we install an LED wall from our own stock of more than 4,800 sq ft and keep ownership. You pay a monthly rent. The rent includes maintenance and repairs, content support, and the option to upgrade or buy the screen later. The mounting structure and installation are quoted with the proposal, and the term is flexible, month to month.

Side by side

• Upfront cost: renting avoids paying for the screen; buying needs the full price.
• Maintenance: included in rent; your cost if you buy.
• Upgrades: swap to a bigger or sharper screen on rent; buy a new screen if you own.
• Long-term cost: owning is usually cheaper over many years of use.

Who should rent

• Businesses in rented premises.
• Brands trying a screen before committing.
• Seasonal or festive campaigns.
• Anyone who would rather keep cash for stock or staff.

Who should buy

• Owners of halls, hotels and auditoriums using the screen every day.
• Outdoor media owners selling advertising on the screen.
• Institutions with capital budgets, such as schools and temples.
