Why partner with Vortex
Steady work, a fair price, money on time.
Everything a good installation team needs and nothing it does not: the job, the price, the materials and the drawings, then payment.
Work finds you
A job alarm rings on your phone for plants near you. The best-rated free teams hear it first, then everyone in the area.
The price is on the job
Labour comes from Vortex's rate card and is shown before you accept. No haggling with the customer, no surprises after.
Materials paid and ready
The customer has paid Vortex for every panel, inverter and cable before you collect them with a 6-digit code.
Drawings, plans and checks
Each job carries a work plan, roof drawings with every leg measured, the materials list, tests with limits and the photos needed, in English and Hindi.
Your team, organised
Add your technicians in the app; each signs in with their own number. Owners and managers accept jobs, everyone sees their work.
A standing that is fair
Customers rate every installation. Good ratings take you from probation to active, silver and gold, with more jobs at a time.
How work reaches you
The first free team to accept gets the job.
When a customer's materials are paid, the job alarm rings for installers near the plant: first the five best-rated free teams, five minutes later everyone in the area, then the wider region. You see the price, size, floors, place and the customer's dates before you accept.

An example. Only companies with a team free on one of the customer's dates, and under their open-job limit, are rung. The price is on the alarm before anyone accepts.
Your price
Fixed before you accept. Never haggled.
Labour is ₹2,500 per kW at today's rate, charged for at least 3 kW, plus listed extras for longer cable, extra steel, floors above two and extra or straddle frames. A rate change applies to new jobs only.
- Standard job, 5 kW × ₹2,500₹12,500
- 0.9 kW above 5 kW × ₹2,500₹2,250
- 1 floor above two × ₹750₹750
- 1 more frame × ₹750₹750
Today's rate is ₹2,500 per kW, charged for at least 3 kW. Cable beyond the standard run, steel beyond 45 kg per kW and frames that straddle an upper roof (₹1,500 each) are added the same way. A rate change applies to new jobs only.
How you are paid
Two ways to be paid. Both on time.
The customer pays your team directly when the work is done; or, when they paid through Vortex or a loan, Vortex holds your labour until our engineer certifies the plant and pays it in the next Wednesday settlement.
An example ₹16,250 job at today's rates. No commission; TDS only where the law requires it (today's setting is 0%). A transfer that fails goes into the next Wednesday.

How you are paid
- 1
Your price, shown before you accept
Every job alarm shows the full labour price from Vortex's rate card. Today that is ₹2,500 per kW, charged for at least 3 kW, plus listed extras such as extra floors and frames. Once you accept, that price is fixed for the job. Rate changes apply to new jobs only.

No commission, no joining fee
Vortex takes no commission from your labour and charges no fee to join or to get jobs. Penalty points never cut your pay. The only deduction from a Vortex payout is TDS (income tax taken at source), and only where the law requires it. Today Vortex deducts 0%.
- 3
Customer pays your team directly
If the customer chose to pay your team, they pay the job price in cash or UPI when the work is finished. They do not wait for the certificate. Vortex holds nothing and deducts nothing. Record the payment in the app the same day and give a receipt.
- 4
Through Vortex: paid on Wednesdays
If the customer paid Vortex online or through a loan, Vortex holds your labour until its engineer issues the Installation Certificate. Vortex then pays it by bank transfer to your checked bank account in the next Wednesday payout.
- 5
Clear payout records
For every payout the app shows the gross amount, the TDS, the amount paid and the bank reference (UTR). A failed transfer goes into the next Wednesday payout. If a Wednesday is a bank holiday, the payout moves to the next working day.
- 6
Service visits paid per visit
Each service visit pays a fixed amount for its type, shown in the app (today ₹300 to ₹600). It is paid in the next Wednesday payout after the request is closed with the customer's happy code, or by a supervisor who records why.
- 7
Cancellations and money questions
If the customer or Vortex cancels before your team starts on site, no labour is due and you get no points. If a job is cancelled after work starts and it is not your fault, Vortex pays for the work done. Ask about any payment within 30 days.
- 8
Never take money for materials
Customers pay Vortex for materials before pickup. Never take money for materials or for Vortex's price. Never take more than the job price. Never take money from another partner or from Vortex staff.
You run your own business
You are an independent business, not Vortex's employee. You employ, pay, insure and keep safe your own technicians. Vortex does not promise a minimum number of jobs, and you may also work outside Vortex.
Five-year workmanship promise
For 5 years from the Installation Certificate, you fix free of charge any fault caused by your team's work, within 72 hours of Vortex asking. Items that fail inspection because of your work are fixed within 72 hours at your cost.
Ratings raise your job limit
You start on probation with 1 open job at a time. Good customer ratings move you up: active allows 3 open jobs, silver 5 and gold 8.
Clear penalty points
Giving back an accepted job costs 3 points, a no-show 4, a third failed inspection 2, and a lost dispute 3. Any penalty stops your job alarms, and 10 points means suspension. You can challenge unfair points within 7 days.
Customers' consent and data protected
Work only on jobs the customer has agreed to with a code (OTP). Use their details only for the job and keep them safe. Never share, sell or post them, and delete your copies when the job is done.

No. You are paid the full labour, less TDS only where the law requires it.
Our engineer lists what to fix. You fix it within 72 hours at your cost; then the plant is certified and, on the Vortex route, paid.
Vortex. The customer pays for them in full before hand-over, and you collect them with a 6-digit code. Panel and inverter serials are scanned and checked.
It costs 3 penalty points (a no-show costs 4). Any penalty puts you on warned standing, which pauses job alarms; 10 points ends the partnership.
