Why we need a payment method — how the two bills work
Your savings involve two bills.
1) Your utility bill (PNM, EPE, or Xcel): your share of the solar farm appears there as a
credit that lowers what you owe the utility.
2) Your Solscribe invoice, billed separately: that credit
minus your discount — 10% standard, 28% income-qualified. Example: a
$100 solar credit lowers your utility bill by $100, and Solscribe invoices you
$90 (or
$72 income-qualified) —
you come out ahead every month. Your payment method is simply how that separate Solscribe invoice gets paid.

Questions before you continue?
Why am I being asked for my payment info?
Because Solscribe bills you separately from your utility. Your solar credits appear on your utility bill and lower what you owe PNM, EPE, or Xcel; Solscribe then invoices you for that credit minus your discount (10% standard, 28% income-qualified) — the payment method is how that separate invoice gets paid. You won’t be charged until your solar project is operational, and your card is secured by Stripe and never touches our servers.
I thought this program was going to SAVE me money?
It does. The solar credits you earn are larger than what you pay, so your total monthly cost goes down. Example: a $100 credit on your utility bill costs you $90 on your Solscribe invoice ($72 if income-qualified) — the difference is yours to keep. You stay with your same utility company — your total cost just gets smaller.
I have a question — who can I call?
