What are my pay off or early purchase options?
Price + $10 payment processing fee (Acima Cash Price is equal to the Lease Amount).
• Early Buyout Option allows you to pay a discounted portion (usually 75% of the remaining payments owed) in one lump sum at any time after the first 90 days of the agreement.
• 12-Month Lease allows you to pay off the lease over a 12-month term without buyout fees or penalties.

When will I own the merchandise?
You own the property once you have met any of the above early pay off options, or once you have made the regularly scheduled payments during the 12-month term.

How much will this cost me?
The cost to acquire ownership depends on whether or not you exercise one of the early buyout options. The 90-Day Option will cost you $10. The Early Buyout Option allows you to pay a discounted portion (usually 75% of the remaining payments owed) in one lump sum at any time after the first 90 days of the agreement. If you choose to pay off the lease over the 12-month lease term you will pay approximately two times the invoice amount.

During the first 60 days, returns are allowed at the sole discretion of the retailer (Arkansas Furniture Mart), after 60 days you can return the merchandise by contacting Acima to arrange pickup.
