Wilmington, NC; November 10, 2021 – Leica Geosystems announced today the launch of a new, tech-driven equipment financing solution for their eCommerce customers called, APPROVE.

APPROVE, which integrates financing options into Leica’s eCommerce site found at, shop.leica-geosystems.com, was developed by KWIPPED Inc., a technology firm specializing in B2B equipment sales and innovative e-commerce.

John Rowles, Leica’s eCommerce Manager said, “Many of our online customers appreciate having the option to conserve cash by leveraging affordable monthly finance payments and APPROVE allows us to present this option, and a user-friendly digital application, next to every financeable product.”

“We also like that APPROVE is a fully-integrated, Leica-branded financing experience for our customers, so instead of sending them away to lender websites, they can easily apply from our website and stay engaged with our brand from start to finish.”

APPROVE financing deals are funded by a network of lenders that compete to earn customer business. The network allows three lenders to work each application at a time and a data-driven algorithm matches customer applications with those lenders most likely to give an approval and offer the optimum rates.

“APPROVE’s lender network can approve applications across the entire spectrum of business credit profiles - from prime credit to subprime credit. More approved applications mean more sales and more satisfied customers,”  Rowles added.
