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). 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?
Your community solar subscription applies bill credits to your account automatically, so we keep a payment method on file — just like any utility program. 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?
Here’s how it works: your solar credits go on your utility bill, and your Solscribe invoice is always less than those credits. You keep your same utility company. Your utility’s own fees still apply, so savings are estimates and are not guaranteed.
I have a question — who can I call?
We’re happy to help — call (505) 300-2429 or email info@solscribenm.com. A real New Mexico team, not a call center.
By providing your bank account details, you authorize Solscribe to debit your account for future payments per your subscription agreement. Nothing is charged until your community solar project is operational.
🔒 Payment secured by Stripe — your card details never touch our servers
