Microsoft FlexGo plan has users paying for their computer as they use it, with prepaid cards, similar to prepaid mobile phones.
Till now, people in emerging markets were faced with financial barriers to buy a PC due to its high cost in markets without widely available consumer credit and high fixed-monthly loan payments required to finance a PC. These obstacles have limited the number of households that could purchase a PC.
Now, with FlexGo, Microsoft is removing these barriers to PC ownership. Microsoft FlexGo makes it possible to lower the entry cost of PCs and let people pay for computers as they use them. This technology supports two models today: a pay-as-you-go model enabled by prepaid cards or a subscription model with monthly payments.
