ING Belgium launches Full-Service Car Lease for the self-employed and SMEs in partnership with Athlon

Brussels - ING Belgium and leasing company Athlon are joining forces and launching ING Full-Service Car Lease. This complete operational leasing formula for passenger vehicles and delivery vans is tailored to the self-employed and SMEs with small fleets. It includes everything from insurance, maintenance, repairs, summer and winter tyres, road tax, registration tax and even a replacement car. Within ING’s familiar online environment, the entrepreneur can choose and order suitable company vehicle(s) in no time at all. The process is 100% digital making it unique, smooth and a time saver.

Within the partnership, ING takes care of the financial aspects and Athlon provides the appropriate vehicle and leasing services to suit the entrepreneur’s needs. ‘Thanks to this partnership, self-employed people and SMEs who want to lease a brand-new vehicle quickly, now have access to a digital, operational all-in mobility solution. The whole process is intuitive. The entrepreneur switches seamlessly between the ING Business’Bank portal and the Athlon platform to choose and order a vehicle. And because they are already logged in, a lot of their details are already known. So they don’t have to add much more information and the credit decision is automatic,’ explains Niels van den Hoogen, CCO of Athlon BeNeLux. 

A unique product that simplifies leasing for the self-employed and SMEs 

For large companies, fleet management through operational leasing is already well established in the market. Now ING is bringing the same easy solution to the self-employed and SMEs, with all services managed by the leasing company. ​ ​ 

Easy to use and fully digital  

ING Full-Service Car Lease is available via ing.be and the ING app. Filip Indigne, Commercial Director ING Lease Belgium concludes: ‘With this new, unique and easy to use product for SMEs and the self-employed, we distinguish ourselves on the Belgian market by serving our customers completely digitally via our Business’Bank portal.’
