Smart Ease’s 10th birthday bundling offer
We’re running an offer for our Channel Partners to promote to their customers.
For each Payment Plan application that uses 2+ types of energy-efficiency equipment and is submitted and approved* between 28 October and 6 December 2024, the customer will receive a cashback by way of a gift card.
- $250 gift card for 2x equipment types
- $500 gift card for 3+ equipment types
You can bundle any type of energy-efficiency equipment you like, e.g. solar ➕ battery, solar ➕ EV charger, LED lighting ➕ heat pump – whatever makes sense for your customer. (And if you’re new to bundling equipment types, check out our article on the topic.)
There’s not much more to it than that, except that our usual credit criteria apply, total deal value must be $20,001 or more, and the installation has to be complete by 1 April 2025. Gift cards will be sent once the project has been funded.
