About

Founded in 2022 and headquartered in Thessaloniki METALEASE is Greece’s leading Device-as-a-Service (DaaS) platform, serving more than 1,300 business customers and enabling businesses to access, manage, and continuously upgrade essential technology through flexible leasing solutions. The company provides smartphones, laptops, tablets, printers, UPS systems, and other business-critical equipment through a fully digital platform that simplifies procurement, financing, asset management, and end-of-life recovery. Beyond financial flexibility, METALEASE promotes a circular economy model by extending the useful life of technology assets through refurbishment, redeployment, resale, and responsible recycling. By maximizing device utilization and reducing premature replacement, the company helps businesses lower electronic waste (e-waste) generation and reduce the environmental impact associated with manufacturing new devices. This approach contributes to lower CO₂ emissions across the technology lifecycle while encouraging more sustainable consumption patterns. METALEASE’s vision is to become the leading business equipment subscription platform in Southeast Europe, accelerating digital transformation for SMEs while creating measurable economic and environmental value through circular technology management.


Solution & Product

METALEASE helps businesses preserve cash flow, reduce upfront investment requirements, and gain access to modern technology without the burden of ownership. Through its Tech-Products-as-a-Service (TPaaS) platform, businesses can lease smartphones, laptops, tablets, printers, UPS systems, and other business equipment through flexible monthly subscriptions.


Innovation & Scalability

METALEASE has developed Greece’s first dedicated Tech-Products-as-a-Service (TPaaS) platform, combining technology, financing, and asset lifecycle management into a fully digital solution. Its proprietary platform automates customer onboarding, risk assessment, contract management, asset tracking, and partner integrations, creating a scalable and efficient operating model. The business is highly scalable, as growth is primarily driven by capital deployment rather than proportional increases in operating expenses. Through strategic partnerships, digital processes, and a subscription-based revenue model, METALEASE can expand across new product categories and geographic markets while maintaining operational efficiency. The platform also supports circular economy principles by extending device lifecycles through refurbishment, redeployment, and resale.s to scale without significantly increasing our overhead costs.

The company has achieved over €1.2M in annualized revenue and demonstrated exceptional growth, recording more than 270% revenue growth in 2025 and targeting over 130% growth in 2026.
