On this page
SolarPanelExit.com is a free resource for homeowners. SolarPanelExit.com is independently owned and has no ownership interest in any company it ranks or reviews. We make money when homeowners who consent are connected with our authorized partners, solar contract exit companies that pay us for inquiries. This page explains how our business model works and how it does, and does not, affect our editorial content.
How We Make Money
SolarPanelExit.com generates revenue in the following ways:
1. Payments from authorized partners
Authorized partners are solar contract exit companies that pay SolarPanelExit.com for inquiries. When a homeowner submits our form and consents, their details may go to the companies on our Authorized Partners list. Partner payments do not change ratings. Read our ownership and funding statement
2. Referral fees from other ranked companies
We may receive referral compensation when visitors click through to or contact other companies listed on our site. Not all listed companies pay us referral fees. Some companies appear in our rankings without any compensation arrangement.
3. Lead generation
When you submit your information through our contact forms (such as the "Get Matched" form) and check the consent box, we may share that information with our authorized partners. Those companies may contact you about their services. We clearly disclose this at the point of data collection.
What Compensation Does NOT Affect
Compensation does not influence:
- The order in which companies are ranked
- The star ratings assigned to companies
- The editorial content of our reviews, including pros and cons
- Whether a company is included in or excluded from our rankings
- The factual accuracy of information presented about any company
- Our informational guides, legal resources, or state law pages
Share a few details and we will connect you with solar contract exit companies that may be able to help. Free, no obligation.
What Compensation MAY Affect
In the interest of full transparency:
- Companies that compensate us may appear on our site more frequently than companies that do not (for example, in banner placements or sidebar features separate from our editorial rankings)
- Our "Get Matched" form routes inquiries only to authorized partners, which pay us for those inquiries
- We are more likely to have detailed information about companies that have a business relationship with us
Key distinction: Our editorial rankings (the numbered #1, #2, #3 list and associated star ratings) are determined by our editorial evaluation criteria and are not influenced by compensation. However, other placements and features on the site may be affected by business relationships. We distinguish between editorial rankings and promotional placements wherever possible.
Companies That Do Not Compensate Us
Some companies appear in our rankings, guides, or informational content without any compensation arrangement. We include these companies because our editorial team believes they are relevant to homeowners researching solar contract exit options. The absence of a compensation arrangement does not negatively affect a company's ranking.
Our Editorial Standards
To maintain the credibility of our editorial content:
- Rankings are based on our published methodology and applied consistently to all companies
- We use opinion-based language ("in our assessment," "appears to offer," "we believe") throughout our editorial content
- We clearly distinguish between editorial content and any sponsored or promotional content
- We disclose how we earn money in the disclosure bar on every page and on our Ownership and Funding page
- We do not publish content that we know to be false or misleading
- We do not advise homeowners to breach their contractual obligations
- We recommend consulting a qualified attorney before taking any action
