[Geoldept] E-bike rebate program

[Ben Paulson]

Hello folks,

I wanted to bring your attention to a rebate program that started taking applications at noon today and will continue to accept applications until the 23rd. The program is for an instant rebate towards the purchase of an E-bike made available through the Washington State Department of Transportation. Depending on your qualifying income level, you could be eligible for a $1200 rebate - everyone is eligible for a $300 rebate. Instant rebates are rebates that apply to the total cost of a purchase as you make it. You must apply the rebate toward an e-bike, but can also apply it to accessories and maintenance plans purchased at the same time as the e-bike.

Here is the website with the information: https://wsdot.wa.gov/travel/bicycling-walking/bicycling-washington/e-bike-rebate-program

Rebate program eligibility
You must meet these requirements to receive an instant rebate:

  *   Reside in Washington state
  *   Be at least 16 years old
You must also provide contact information when you apply, including:

  *   A physical address or alternative way of proving Washington residency
  *   An email address
  *   A phone number
  *   Demographic information
Qualifying applicants will receive rebates for either $1,200 or $300.

  *   Income-qualifying applicants are people who have a pre-tax household income at-or-below 80 percent of their county-area median income (also known as AMI).
  *   WE-Bike developed an AMI guide (PDF 336KB) <https://wsdot.wa.gov/sites/default/files/2025-04/EBike-AMI-Guide.pdf> to help you figure out if you may be income-eligible.
  *   A household is limited to one e-bike rebate. A household is a group of people who file taxes together.
  *   Applicants who meet the income qualifications are eligible to receive the $1,200 rebates. Everyone else is eligible for the $300 rebates.
