Sony has teamed up with the UK-based tech leasing service Raylo to introduce a rental program for PlayStation 5 hardware through its Flex initiative.

This arrangement allows customers to rent PS5 consoles and additional accessories without an initial payment. Options include a flexible monthly plan that can be canceled at any time, as well as fixed-term commitments.

The flexibility of the monthly contract is reflected in its higher cost, whereas the 12, 24, and 36-month agreements offer reduced rates.

Available rental hardware includes:

  • PS5 Digital Edition with one controller (starting at £10.99)
  • PS5 Digital Edition with two controllers (starting at £13.49)
  • PS5 Slim (starting at £11.99)
  • PS5 Pro (starting at £18.95)
  • PS Portal (starting at £6.49)
  • PS VR2 (starting at £18.49)
  • DualSense Edge Wireless Controller (starting at £7.99)

Complete pricing details for each leasing option are available here.

According to Sony's support page, these are rentals, so ownership of the console remains with the company.

The company explains, "At the end of your lease, you can return the device, upgrade, or potentially purchase, based on Raylo's terms and pricing at that time."

Raylo offers a lifetime warranty for rented devices, covering repairs or replacements at no extra charge if issues arise.
