However, you may need to make a down payment between 10% and 25% for the equipment that you finance. The interest rate you will receive is likely to be lower the larger your down payment. Equipment financing rates generally range between 4% and 40% depending on your lender, the qualifications of your business, and the equipment that you are purchasing.
