Compare the total amount paid—not only the weekly figure
Finance can spread the upfront cost of solar, a battery or heat pump hot water, but repayment frequency alone does not show the true cost. Compare interest, fees, establishment charges, term, early repayment conditions and the total payable against an upfront quote.
Project price
Start with a clear cash price and identify which rebates or certificate discounts are already included.
Finance cost
Review rate, fees, term, repayment amount, total payable and any deferred or promotional period conditions.
Approval and suitability
Finance remains subject to the provider’s eligibility, responsible-lending assessment, terms and approval.
Separate the system decision from the payment decision
First confirm that the proposed system, equipment and installation scope suit the property. Then compare payment pathways for that same scope. Changing equipment to meet a repayment target can make comparisons difficult.
- Obtain the cash price and financed total for the same project.
- Check whether rebates are included before finance is calculated.
- Review cancellation, cooling-off and early repayment conditions.
- Do not submit bank details or identity documents through this website form.
- Seek independent financial advice where appropriate.
