Solar Finance for Installers

    Solar Finance for Installers — Close More PV Deals

    Your customers want solar panels. The upfront cost is the only thing stopping them. Rubix Finance gives UK solar installers an FCA-compliant, multi-lender finance platform so customers can say yes today — and you get paid on installation.

    The Problem

    Solar Installers Losing Deals on Price

    A typical residential solar PV system costs £6,000–£15,000. That's a meaningful outlay for most households, even when the payback case is strong. Without finance, too many interested customers walk away.

    Customers love the technology but can't fund it in one payment

    Competitors offering solar finance are winning jobs you should have closed

    No structured way to present monthly payment options on-site

    No direct lender relationships built for green technology projects

    Customers delay decisions waiting to 'save up' — and never come back

    FAQs

    Common Questions

    Everything you need to know before getting started.

    1Can I offer solar finance for both residential and commercial installations?

    Yes. Rubix Finance supports finance for residential solar PV, commercial rooftop solar, and ground-mounted systems. Lenders on our panel have products suited to both consumer and business customers.

    2What loan terms are available for solar panel finance?

    Loan terms typically range from 24 to 120 months, depending on the lender and the customer's profile. This gives customers the flexibility to choose a monthly payment that suits their budget.

    3Do I need my own FCA authorisation to offer solar finance?

    Not necessarily. Rubix Finance is the FCA-authorised credit broker, and many installers operate under our umbrella. Where your business model requires it, we can also support you through a Limited Permissions FCA application.

    4Does offering solar finance cost my business anything?

    No. Joining the Rubix Finance installer network is completely free. We receive commission from lenders on successful applications — there are no fees charged to you or your customers by us.

    5What happens if a solar finance customer is declined?

    Our platform connects customers with multiple lenders. If one lender can't help, others on the panel may still be able to offer a product — reducing the number of deals lost to a single decline.

    6How quickly can I start offering solar finance to my customers?

    Most solar installers complete digital onboarding and are fully live within 48 hours of submitting their application. There's no paper-based process — everything is handled online.
