## Frequently asked questions

### What is customer financing for electrical contractors?

Electrical customer financing lets homeowners apply for credit for eligible residential electrical work through a participating lender. Ottri provides one branded application and a shared financing workspace for your business. Your team can introduce the option with the estimate, monitor progress, and follow up on required steps. One branded application reaches 20 participating lenders, so a decline from one lender is not the end of the electrical sale.

### What happens if the first lender says no?

Nothing extra for you or your customer. The homeowner fills out one branded application, and Ottri moves it to the next participating lender automatically, across 20 lenders on the Ottri network. Your customer sees one application under your brand the whole way, and you see every step in your dashboard. Each lender makes its own decision.

### Can homeowners apply for panel upgrades, rewiring, or installations?

A participating program may consider those projects when the work, applicant, business, and amount meet its requirements. Identify the proposed equipment, wiring, labor, and related costs in the estimate. Technical requirements and project eligibility remain specific to the actual installation rather than the electrical category alone. Because one application is considered by multiple lender programs in sequence, a project that does not fit one program can still fit another.

### What does Ottri cost, and how do we get started?

Free to start. No setup fee, no subscription, no demo. Create your account, complete onboarding, and send your first application as soon as your programs are active. Lender and promotional costs, where they apply, depend on the program you choose.

### How can our field team introduce financing without managing separate lender applications?

Share Ottri's branded application by link, QR code, text, or email while explaining the electrical estimate. The homeowner completes the application, and eligible participating lenders are considered in sequence. Authorized office staff can track required next steps in the same workspace. Your electrical scope, permissions, and scheduling remain part of your own project process. One application, 20 participating lenders, zero lender portals for your crew to learn.

### Will the financing stay under our brand, and are applications sold as leads?

Yes, it is your brand from start to finish. Your logo, colors, and contact are on every screen the homeowner sees. We never sell applications as leads. The customer stays yours; the participating lender simply provides the credit, and its required disclosures appear where the law requires.

### Can equipment and electrical installation be included in one request?

Describe the equipment and installation together in the estimate and confirm which costs the participating program accepts. The lender determines the available amount and terms. A larger panel, additional circuits, or expanded wiring scope may require updated information and a review of any earlier financing offer. Across the Ottri network, participating programs cover projects from $1,000 to $750,000, which spans a single circuit to a whole-home rewire.

### Is this financing for my customer's home or for my electrical business?

This page covers eligible customer projects at residential properties. It describes homeowners applying through your business's branded flow. Business borrowing for tools, vans, or inventory is a separate product; Ottri keeps the homeowner's project financing simple and branded to you. Ottri is customer financing for your homeowners, with the proceeds paid to your business on eligible programs.

### Who approves the financing and sends the funds?

The participating lender approves the financing and sets the terms. On eligible programs the lender pays your business directly, so you are never chasing the homeowner for payment. Ottri Global LLC is a licensed loan broker, NMLS 2776988, and is not a lender.

### Does applying for financing affect the homeowner’s credit?

Applying is built to be easy on the homeowner. Whether a program uses a soft or hard inquiry depends on the lender, the product, and the step, and the homeowner sees that information on screen before continuing, so there are no surprises.
