The work isn't the hard part — waiting to be paid for it is. Ample puts the money where it should be: with you, when you need it. Get paid as each stage is signed off, draw funds before a job starts, and take the grant on your timetable, not Ofgem's.

BUS Advance

The grant is yours the day you commission — not whenever Ofgem gets round to it. BUS Advance pays it on completion for a fixed £200, so a finished job is a paid-in-full job.

Equipment Advance*

Need the cash before the work's done? Equipment Advance releases funds up front — from 2.5% of the amount drawn, capped at 4.5% — so you're never buying equipment or covering labour out of your own pocket. The job funds itself, from day one.

"Being paid the BUS grant up front is a real help with cash flow — no more waiting for Ofgem. All in all, a great benefit to my business."

How getting paid works

Review your project

Hit a milestone, get paid

Invoicing, your way

Review your project

Once the customer's signed their contracts, the project order form lands in your portal. Open it, choose from the finance options available, and confirm — your payment schedule updates live on screen, so you can see exactly what you'll be paid and when.

Review your project

Hit a milestone, get paid

As each milestone is reached — starting with the project confirmation — the payment due is in your account within one working day. No invoicing to raise first, no waiting on the customer.

Invoicing, your way

Let the portal generate your invoices and payments automatically, or send your own if you'd rather. Whatever suits how you already work.

We know cash flow is everything in this trade, so we pay you within one working day of each completed milestone — invoicing is automatic and every stage is tracked, so you always know where you stand. If you need funds sooner — say you’ve got a big, equipment-heavy job coming up — our Equipment Advance can help you bridge the gap (it’s available to limited companies). We’ll always talk you through what fits.

No standing charges, no membership fee, nothing to pay just to be on the platform. You pay a clear, fixed fee per project — and only when you’ve got work on, so there’s no overhead sitting on you between jobs. Everything’s transparent and agreed upfront, with no hidden extras.

No — you keep working the way you already do. Ample works with any MCS-compliant design tool you’re already using, so there’s no new system to learn and no rebuilding your process. We also have special rates with some software providers, so it’s worth asking us for details.

No — you don’t need your own MCS certification to work with Ample. Installs you do with us are certified through our accreditation, so the recognised standard and the grant eligibility are covered either way. If you’re already MCS-certified, that means you can offload the admin and cost of maintaining it; if you’re not, there’s no need to be. Either way, you focus on the installs and we carry the MCS side.
