Trimble Financing Services
Trimble® Financial Services’ mission is to provide Trimble’s dealer channel with a viable, competitive and customer friendly finance alternative to cash terms to acquire Trimble products.
Customers find the finance alternative easier to budget than a cash purchase.
How Trimble can help close the deal
Program pricing is determined competitively by each participating finance partner in the Trimble program. Pricing is generally below what each participating dealer will find in the open market, on their own.
Competition: Your competitors are offering financing
Affordability: Reduces sticker shock - sell a payment!
Total Solution Provider: Your knowledge of financing will show credibility and value as a total solution provider to your client.
Control of the Sale: Allows you the ability to provide financing vs. the client taking time to research their own options - thereby providing more time to rethink their purchase from you.
Quick Payment: TFS financing gets you paid within 24-48 hours — oftentimes even faster!

How a deal is paid
After the customer returns the completed document package and upfront payment, the purchase order is released to the dealer.
The purchase order will provide the customer’s name and amount financed — including the finance program and subsidy.
Payment to the dealer (by the lender) can be made via paper check or ACH.
An email is sent to the dealer the day the deal is funded, to confirm funding date and amount.
Deal Checklist Items needed prior to funding:
Complete signed document package
Upfront payment (can be processed via EFT or check)
Invoice from the dealer
Subsidy process explained
With the Trimble subsidy program, there is nothing to complete during the funding process.
The full subsidy is deducted at the time of funding to the dealer.
After the funding is processed, the bank lender will submit a report to Trimble Customer Claims.
Dealer can expect the reimbursement from Trimble for their portion of the subsidy fee shortly after the deal is funded.
