"Marcos and the team totally delivered! We were on a super tight deadline to get our project up and running, and honestly, for a minute there it looked like we weren't going to make it. But I trusted my sales manager, Marcos Torres, and he really came through for us. He kept us updated the whole time and everything turned out awesome in the end. Huge thanks to Marcos and the What Rebates team for grinding it out and getting the job done when it mattered most!"

What our clients say
Real results from CEA operators across the country.
"Our recent collaboration with What Rebates has been nothing short of exemplary. From the outset, What Rebates showcased a level of professionalism and dedication that instantly impressed us. Their expertise in the field of LED grow lights is evident and their ability to deliver results make them a standout choice in the industry."
"After talking with Marcos over a few calls, they went to work for us and went through the whole rebate process with our local power company directly. They were able to retrofit our whole facility (10,000 sqft) with brand new state-of-the-art LED grow lights from our old HPS lighting. I will definitely be referring them and working with them again. Thanks, Marcos & What Rebates!"
