Office Depot Introduces Limited Time Offer of ‘No Interest For Six Months’ Financing Program on Office Depot Business Credit Cards

BOCA RATON, Fla.--()--Office Depot (NYSE: ODP), celebrating 25 years as a leading global provider of office supplies and services, today announced a new “No Interest For Six Months” financing offer available to all new and existing Office Depot Business Credit Card holders. This limited time special offer is running now through February 26.

Through this new program Office Depot Business Credit Cardholders can take advantage of the “no interest for 6 months” offer on all purchases totaling $299 or more if paid in full by the end of the promotional period. Minimum monthly payments required. For example, if a customer makes a purchase of $299 on this program, they can save $32 of interest if the balance is paid in full within six months*.

As managing budgets and cash flow are so critically important to small businesses, providing options to be able to invest in equipment and supplies is a much needed benefit. In fact, the Office Depot December Small Business Index revealed that 72% of small business owners think interest rates will rise this year, which could add even more challenges for small businesses today.

“The economy continues to impact the health of businesses both large and small and the start of the New Year brings with it many additional expenses that make good cash flow management even more important,” said George Hill, Senior Vice President of Store Operations for Office Depot. “With the broadest array of products and services designed to meet the unique needs of business, Office Depot is committed to helping our customers make 2011 a success.”

Customers can apply online for the Office Depot Business Credit Card and find out more about the new “No Interest for Six Months” program, or visit any Office Depot retail store location.
