Why this exists

Why the usual lenders say no.

Your revenue is real. The problem is the form. Here is why traditional underwriting turns away healthy operators in this space, and what we do differently.

01

Unpredictable cash flow

Traditional banks often reject contractors due to the gaps between installation and final invoice payout.

Our partners evaluate revenue based on completed projects rather than static account balances.
02

Low equipment collateral

Standard lenders struggle to value specialized inventory like solar inverters or racking systems.

We work with specialty lenders who recognize the secondary market value of your solar equipment.
03

Newer business age

Big banks require 5+ years of operations to approve most commercial credit lines.

Many partner lenders focus on your recent 12-month performance and future contract backlog.

Questions we get asked

Frequently asked.

No. Many lenders in our network look beyond personal credit scores, focusing instead on business revenue, time in business, and the volume of your active solar contracts. While a 600+ score helps, we have options for various financial profiles.
