Hire purchase is similar to a finance lease except that it contains a provision giving the hirer an option to acquire legal title to the asset (once certain contract provisions are fulfilled).

A mechanism for gaining the benefits of owning an asset without paying the whole of the purchase price at the outset, but over a period of time.
