Rate card and alerts

How our pricing works

One rate. One number. Yours.

01

Published daily

We post the rate we pay every trading day. No "call for a quote", no rate that changes depending on who answers.

02

Locked on lodgement

The moment a complete claim reaches the desk, your rate is locked. Market moves after that are our problem, not yours.

03

Paid within 24 hours

Once your claim is signed off, we settle within 24 hours. No fees, so the rate is the whole number.

What you actually receive

The maths, out loud.

Worked on today's rates for a 20 certificate claim. Same method every day, and nothing hidden at the bottom.

Examples are illustrative. Certificate numbers depend on the system installed. Read how we clear and settle claims.

Partner Program premiums

The card is the floor. Loyalty lifts it.

Preferred and Principal partners earn a rate premium on every certificate. Your premium is set out on your own rate card, not buried in a footnote.

Why rates move

Why the rate card changes.

STC and VEEC prices are set by supply and demand. Supply is the certificates created by installers like you. Demand comes from liable entities, mainly electricity retailers, who must surrender certificates to meet their obligations.

  • The STC clearing house. Certificates can be sold through the Clean Energy Regulator's clearing house at a fixed $40 each, which acts as a ceiling on the market price. Spot prices usually sit a little under it.
  • Surrender periods. Liable entities surrender STCs quarterly, and demand tends to tighten ahead of those deadlines.
  • Program volumes. Battery uptake under the Cheaper Home Batteries Program adds a large new source of certificates, and that volume shapes supply.
  • VEECs. Victorian prices follow the Victorian Energy Upgrades target and the pace of eligible activity in the state.

That is why we publish daily and lock your rate on lodgement. See STC trading and battery STCs for the program detail.

Questions

Pricing, answered.

When is the rate updated?
The rate card is updated each trading day and the date is shown on the page. Today's rates were last updated on 2 October 2026. Rate alerts by SMS or email go out every trading morning.
When is my rate locked?
Your rate is locked when a complete claim is lodged with the desk. If the market moves afterwards, the rate on your claim does not. A claim that is missing documents is not complete, so send everything in one go.
Are there any fees taken out of the rate?
No. There are no processing fees, admin fees, registry fees or subscriptions. The rate on the card is the number that lands in your account.
Is the rate the same for every installer?
The rate card is what approved partners are paid. Preferred and Principal partners earn a premium on top, set out in their own rate card. See the Partner Program for how tiers work.
How quickly am I paid?
Within 24 hours of sign-off for established partners. Your first claim takes 48 to 72 hours while we verify your details, then you move to 24-hour settlement. The full process is on How it works.
Do VEEC prices apply outside Victoria?
No. VEECs are created under the Victorian Energy Upgrades program, so the VEEC rate applies to eligible Victorian activities only. STCs apply nationally. See VEEC trading for detail.
