Denver residents can apply for e-bike voucher rebates of up to $1,400. The rebates reduce the cost of a newly purchased e-bike at a local retailer. The ongoing rebate program has distributed vouchers in stages, with previous application periods running out of rebates in hours. Although we are used to seeing this type of strategy more associated with the private sector, this type of tool is also used in the institutional sphere, either as support in the form of a tax rebate or, as in this case, as a direct payment.
The rebate amount varies based on a few factors: All residents can qualify for a $300 rebate on a normal e-bike and $500 for a cargo e-bike. Meanwhile, income-qualified applicants can get up to $1,200 for a standard e-bike and $1,400 for a cargo e-bike. Income-qualified applicants must make below 60 percent of the state’s median income, 200 percent below the federal poverty level, or below 80 percent of their area median income.
E-Bike Rebate Amounts Vary Based on Residency, Income, and Disability Status
One final group is eligible for an increased rebate: applicants with a disability can get a $1400 rebate for an adaptive e-bike.These e-bikes are specially designed to assist riders with their particular disability. The adaptive rebate application process is separate. While the rebates are sure to go fast tomorrow, Denver residents will have other opportunities this year. Applications will also open on September 26 and November 28.

Federal Voucher Rebates
In the context of the United States, a federal voucher rebate would be a program funded by the federal government that provides rebates, often in the form of vouchers, to individuals or organizations as part of a specific initiative or program. These rebates could be for various purposes, such as promoting energy-efficient appliances, incentivizing the purchase of electric vehicles, encouraging investment in renewable energy, or providing financial aid for education, housing, or healthcare.
For example, a federal energy-efficient appliance rebate program might work like this:
- A consumer purchases a qualifying energy-efficient appliance.
- They fill out a rebate form provided by the appliance manufacturer or retailer, which includes proof of purchase and often the appliance’s model number (to verify that it is energy-efficient).
- They submit this form to the appropriate government agency or department.
After the form is processed, the consumer receives a rebate in the form of a check, a reduction in their utility bill, or a voucher that can be used for future purchases. As with any program, the exact processes, qualifications, and benefits can vary, so it’s important to read and understand the details of the specific program. Please note that any federal voucher rebate program will likely have specific guidelines and qualifications, and not all individuals or purchases may qualify.
