Platform · Eco Financing®

Turn the price your rebate leaves into a monthly payment.

A platform capability, not a lending product. Embedded at checkout beside your incentive, underwritten by lending partners, off your balance sheet — so the same rebate budget reaches the customers who otherwise walk away.

Why financing matters

Rebates lower the price. Financing drives participation.

For any program measuring completed installs per incentive dollar, that distinction is everything.

  • 53%

    Of U.S. adults can’t cover a $1,000 unplanned expense

    The typical price of an efficient appliance. When the old one fails, the cheapest unit in stock wins by default — unless the price can become a payment.

    Months to repay, from 0% APR

    Installment loans spread cost over a real term, where credit cards, BNPL and store financing do not — the difference between qualifying and walking away.

    Eco Financing program terms

    Reason customers choose Eco Financing

    “Affordable monthly payments.” Customers optimise the payment, not the APR — which is why most pick the longest term available. Term beats rate.

A different kind of financing

Built for participation, not profit.

For most retailers, financing is a profit center — which means high rates, tight credit requirements, and deferred-interest traps. Eco Financing isn't a profit center. It's built into the platform to remove barriers to program participation.

Typical retail financing

Designed to generate profit

  • High APRs drive margin for the retailer
  • Tight credit requirements protect profit
  • Deferred-interest promotions with back-end penalties
  • Short terms push payments higher
  • Incentives favor the sale, not the customer
Eco Financing

Designed to remove barriers

  • Affordable rates, institutional pricing
  • Accessible credit to broaden participation
  • True installment loans — no deferred-interest traps
  • Extended terms to keep monthly payments low
  • Aligned with your program’s participation goals

How it works

A platform capability, not a lending product.

Eco Financing is a feature of the Enervee Marketplace Platform. Embedded at checkout, underwritten by institutional partners, off your balance sheet.

Embedded at checkout

Customers see monthly payment options alongside their cart total. No redirect. No separate application. Financing is part of the buying experience.

Off your balance sheet

Loans are underwritten and serviced by trusted institutional lending partners. No on-book credit exposure, no capital requirements, no servicing burden for your program.

True consumer loans

Installment loans with fixed monthly payments — purpose-built for larger purchases and longer terms than credit cards, BNPL, or store financing.

Accessible and fair

Risk-based pricing designed to reach the customers traditional retail financing misses. Pre-qualification with no impact to credit score.

What it changes

Same rebate budget. More completed installs.

Financing never replaces the incentive. It lets more customers act on the price the incentive leaves — which shows up as conversion, order value and reach.

    Financed buyers would have bought less efficient, or not at all

    Only 20% of borrowers would have matched that efficiency without financing. This is the clearest available statement of what the payment option adds to the program.

    Higher average order value

    Customers with financing choose higher-efficiency products — more kWh and therm savings per transaction from the same incentive.

  • Reach

    The same mechanism is how income-qualified programs hit their participation targets.

    Two state evaluations measured who financing reaches. That evidence lives on the program page.

FAQ

What program teams ask about financing.

More questions program teams ask →

Is financing a substitute for rebates?

No, and it is not designed as one. Rebates lower the price; financing changes whether a customer can act on that price at all. Eco Financing sits alongside your incentive rather than replacing it.

What terms and rates do customers get?

Fixed-payment installment loans from 3 to 60 months, from 0% APR. Short 3- and 6-month terms are offered at 0%; longer terms carry risk-based rates set by the lending partner. Customers consistently choose the longest term because it produces the lowest payment — on a $3,223 installed tankless, about $69 a month over 60 months, at no cost to the program. Longer 0% terms exist but carry a merchant discount the program would fund, so we do not recommend them over a deeper rebate.

Who are the lending partners?

Eco Financing launched nationally with U.S. Bank in September 2026, available in all 50 states. In California, financing may also be offered through KeyPoint Credit Union under the state's GoGreen Financing program. Loans are underwritten and serviced by the lender, never by Enervee.

What purchase sizes does it cover?

Nationally, U.S. Bank finances purchases from $300 to $25,000. Under California's GoGreen Financing program the band is $500 to $5,000. Both are sized for appliance and equipment replacement rather than small basket items, and a typical installed water heater sits comfortably inside either.

Does financing count against our program budget?

No. Loans are underwritten and serviced by lending partners, so there is no on-book credit exposure, no capital requirement and no servicing burden for the program. The only program cost is optional: buying down the lender's rate if you choose to offer promotional 0% APR on longer terms.

Whose balance sheet is the loan on?

The lender's — not yours, and not Enervee's. Eco Financing is a platform capability, not a lending product.

What happens to customers with thin or damaged credit?

Pricing is risk-based and built to reach customers that retail financing misses, and pre-qualification runs without affecting the customer's credit score. How far that reaches into income-qualified and disadvantaged communities is documented on the Income-qualified program page.
