The global subscription economy saw an increase of 7% of consumers who use subscription services since 2018, with user behaviour shifting from product ownership to user-ship. Disrupting the local consumer electronics industry, ITEZ (read as IT Easy), Singapore’s new online tech gadget leasing platform unveils five affordable subscription plans for laptops.

The e-commerce platform offers a subscription model where consumers can lease tech gadgets, like laptops, for a 24-month subscription period – this provides convenience, flexibility and affordability to cater to users with changing needs. Consumers can transact seamlessly with no deposit, no interest and transaction fees, free delivery, minimal downtime and a reliable warranty plan.

ITEZ’s subscription model

With ITEZ’s flexible pay-to-use model, consumers can sign up for a subscription plan and choose their preferred electronic gadget according to their budget after registration.

For a start, there will be five subscription plans available for consumers to choose from — ranging from a Lenovo IdeaPAD for as low as S$9.90 per month to its top subscription plan model — the Apple Macbook Air at S$39.90 per month. Exclusive to the launch, consumers can expect to enjoy savings of up to 40% compared to purchasing a new laptop. The first 500 users to sign up to the newsletter will receive a S$10 discount code on their first payment and enjoy complimentary doorstep delivery.

During the subscription period, consumers are assured that the subscribed laptop is fully-covered under warranty, and they can receive a temporary loan device upon request if the laptop is under repair. This means customers can maintain efficiency for work or academic purposes regardless of the situation. At the end of the subscription, customers can renew or upgrade their plan and subscribe to a new laptop model at an affordable monthly plan.

Customers can also look forward to a wider variety of electronic gadgets available on ITEZ. The platform will be introducing subscription plans for more devices, including tablets and smartphones that are powered by both iOS and Android.
