Figures reflect applications submitted through the Golt network. Rates, terms, and promotional plans are set by participating lenders and vary by credit profile, program, and term. All financing is subject to lender approval.

Approvals

One bank gives you one answer. We ask until we get a yes.

Most contractors are tied to a single lender, so a single decline ends the sale. Golt is integrated directly with multiple large banks and direct lenders, and we work them in sequence โ€” not all at once โ€” until one approves.

01

The customer applies once

One short application, submitted a single time. No re-typing the same information for a second or third lender.

02

Our waterfall runs the network

Lenders are tried one by one, in order, in under 10 seconds. We never blast an application across the market.

03

You see the real number

Results land in about two minutes with the maximum approved amount, so you quote to a budget you can trust.

Soft pull to check offers
Checking a rate or approval does not affect your customer's credit score.
One inquiry, not a dozen
Sequential submission protects the customer's file from shotgunned applications.
Approvals in the 600s, routinely
Credit profiles that a single bank turns down are approved through the network every day.
Credit coverage

Stop losing jobs to a credit score.

Traditional financing serves near-perfect credit and declines nearly everyone else. Through Golt you can present real options to customers across the 550 to 850 range โ€” the homeowners your competitors quote, lose, and never follow up on.

Roughly 27% of households finance an improvement project in full. When you can serve that segment, ticket sizes rise and closing rates follow โ€” contractors on our program routinely close 30% or more additional projects within a year.

Funding

The lender funds your business. Not the homeowner.

Consumer loans that deposit cash into the homeowner's account put your contract at risk: the money becomes leverage for a second round of bids, or it quietly disappears mid-project. Golt's lenders pay the contractor directly.

โœ“Your signed price holds once the customer is approved โ€” no cash in hand to shop your bid with.
โœ“Your cash flow stays tied to the project, not to a homeowner's bank account.
โœ“Your margin survives, because you are not discounting to match a cash bid.

Funds are never handed to the homeowner, so nobody shops your bid with cash in hand and nobody walks off with the money halfway through the job.

The math on the driveway

Roughly 27% of households finance an improvement project in full.

If financing is not on the table, that is the share of your estimates deciding between a smaller scope and no job at all.

Point of sale

Start an application however the conversation is happening.

At the kitchen table, on the phone, or from the truck โ€” your team has four ways to put an offer in front of a homeowner, and none of them require training your techs to be loan officers.

Option 01

Text or email a link

Send the application by SMS or email and let the homeowner complete it on their own phone.

Option 02

Show your QR code

One scan from your estimate, truck wrap, or door hanger opens the application instantly.

Option 03

Fill it in over the phone

Take the details while you have them on the line, then send a pre-filled link โ€” they add only their SSN and date of birth.

Option 04

Hand us the phone

Transfer the customer to our desk mid-call and we handle plans, approval, and the fine print as your company.

Included with your program

Send us your dead leads. We'll bring them back.

Every contractor has a list of estimates that went quiet over price. Hand it to us โ€” our team calls them, runs the approval, and books the appointment back onto your calendar.

โœ“We make the calls, not your sales team
โœ“Appointments arrive already approved
โœ“You see the maximum approved amount before you drive out
Customer support

Your reviews are on the line every time a lender picks up.

Trades live and die on word of mouth. It does not matter how good the install was โ€” if the financing call was slow, confusing, or cold, that is the story the homeowner tells their neighbor.

Golt staffs a dedicated support desk that answers in under 30 seconds and stays with your customer until their questions are done. Because we are integrated with the banks directly, answers come back immediately instead of after a hold queue.

Business impact

Not every customer has the cash up front.

Financing is not a discount tool. Done properly it raises the average ticket, brings in calls your competitors never get, and gives homeowners a reason to trust the company that offered it.

Bigger tickets

Hear yes on the full scope instead of the stripped-down version. Contractors on the program close 30% or more additional projects inside a year.

More calls

Put financing in your marketing and the phone rings more. Roughly 27% of households finance an improvement project in full.

A better experience

Fair, fast, clearly explained financing builds trust โ€” and trust is what turns a completed job into a referral.

Golt is not a lender. Financing is originated by participating banks and lenders, and all applications are subject to their approval, terms, and disclosures. Advertised amounts, rates, and promotional programs depend on the customer's credit profile, the selected term, and the lender's program availability. Pre-qualification uses a soft credit inquiry; a hard inquiry may be required to finalize a loan.

Questions

Answers before you commit to anything.

Does checking an offer hurt my customer's credit?+

No. Pre-qualification runs as a soft pull, so your customer can see the offers they qualify for with no impact to their score. A hard inquiry only comes into play if they move forward with a specific lender's loan.

How is this different from being set up with one bank?+

A single lender has one credit box, so one decline ends the conversation. We are integrated with multiple large banks and direct lenders and run them in a waterfall โ€” one at a time, in under 10 seconds โ€” until a file is approved. That is where the higher approval rate comes from.

Are you blasting the application to every lender at once?+

No. The customer submits once and we work our lender list sequentially, stopping as soon as one approves. It protects the customer's file and it keeps the offer clean.

Who receives the money โ€” me or the homeowner?+

You do. Our lenders fund the contractor directly, so the homeowner is never handed the cash. That removes the two worst outcomes in financed work: your bid being shopped with money in hand, and funds disappearing mid-project.

What credit scores actually get approved?+

Offers are shown across FICO 550 to 850, and profiles in the 600s are approved through the network every day. Final terms depend on the lender, the credit profile, and the program selected.

How much training does my team need?+

Very little. A tech either sends a link, shows a QR code, or transfers the call to our desk. There is no plan comparison to memorize and no fine print for them to explain.

What happens to my old estimates that went cold?+

Send us the list. Our team calls them, runs the approval, and books the ones with budget back onto your calendar with the maximum approved amount attached, so you know what the job can support before you drive out.

Is Golt a lender?+

No. Golt is the financing desk that sits between your business and a network of participating banks and direct lenders. They underwrite and fund; we run the process, the support line, and the customer experience on your behalf.
