Free Delivery

We’ll schedule your delivery and set up your item for free.**

  • Delivery address needs to be within the normal service area of the store

Easy Payment Options

When you’re ready, get the product back (or comparable item), and pick up where you left off. You don’t lose the money you already paid. Note that we only store your payment history for 2 years, so you’ll need to bring your last payment receipt as proof for reinstatement.

  • Item needs to be in-stock
  • Must have proof of competitor price
  • Competitor price needs to be valid at the time of price match
  • For new agreements only
  • Price match may adjust the weekly rate, term and/or total price to match our rent lease to own competitors’ advertised prices

Ownership Options For You

Choose the ownership option that works best for your budget.

  • Option 1: Small Flexible Payments
    At Rent-A-Center, you renew your rental agreement as you go. We work with you to get the right items at the payment amount and schedule that works for you.When you make all of the payments listed in the lease agreement, it’s yours. No further obligation, no further payments.11North Carolina residents must pay an end-of-lease purchase option to obtain ownership.
  • Option 2: Own it When YOU are Ready
    Want to own it sooner and save? You always have an Early Purchase Option2 that will save you money compared to paying the total cost to own in your lease. When you’re ready to own, simply pay the early purchase price and it’s yours! The sooner you choose, the more you’ll save.

    • Own it in 4-6 months for the greatest savings. In most states, we offer 6 months “same as cash” as our lowest Early Purchase Option price. HI, NJ, NY, WV and selected locally owned & operated stores offer 4-6 months same as cash depending on the product. Simply bring in the difference between what you’ve paid in rent (not incl. taxes or optional fees) and the original cash price, plus tax, before the Same as Cash period ends and you’ll own it at the lowest cost. Ask a store or review your agreement for more details.
    • Standard Early Purchase Option. After the Same as Cash period ends, you still have the option to own the merchandise early and save. Throughout the life of your agreement, the Early Purchase Option provides significant savings off of the remaining total cost to own when you choose to purchase items before the end of your agreement. This savings can be as much as 50% off of the remaining cost to own.2Early Purchase Option requires a payment in addition to regular rental payments.
  • Option 3: Pick up where you left off
    If for some reason you need to pause your payments, simply return the product. When you’re ready, you can get it back (or a comparable item), and pick up where you left off.

No Credit Option

Our flexible rental-purchase transactions are not credit, loans, or financing transactions. You can get the things you want for your home without using credit you may have or increasing your debt.

“The No Credit Option” doesn’t mean that no inquiry will be made of credit history. When reviewing your application, we will consider multiple data points in reviewing your application and regularly approve customers with less than perfect credit history.
