Learn more about Corbel

Merchants (OEMs, Distributors & Dealers)

Selling complex equipment is hard. Corbel is designed to simplify configuration, quoting, and financing without disrupting how your team sells today.
What is Corbel?

Corbel is a sales platform purpose-built for configuring complex equipment, generating accurate quotes, and embedding financing into the sales process.

Who is Corbel built for?

Corbel is designed for OEMs, distributors, and dealers selling complex, high-ticket industrial equipment where configuration, pricing, and financing are critical to closing deals.

What types of equipment is Corbel best suited for?

Corbel works best for durable, configurable equipment with optional add-ons or bundles, typically sold in transactions ranging from tens of thousands to several hundred thousand dollars.

How does Corbel fit into our existing sales process?

Corbel supports hybrid sales. Your team can use it internally, share guided configurations with buyers, or allow buyers to self-serve upfront - without losing control of pricing or the customer relationship.

Can Corbel handle complex configurations and pricing?

Yes. Corbel supports configuration rules, compatibility logic, bundles, and pricing guardrails to ensure quotes are accurate and consistent, even for complex equipment setups.

Can Corbel work alongside our existing quoting tools?

Yes. Corbel can complement existing quoting systems by serving as a front-end sales and lead qualification tool, helping buyers explore options and engage earlier before deals move into downstream systems.

Do we need to replace our CRM or ERP?

No. Corbel complements existing systems and workflows without requiring a full replacement.

How does financing work on Corbel?

Financing is embedded directly into the quoting experience, with approvals typically returned within 4–8 business hours.

Which lenders are supported?

Corbel works with a network of financing partners and can route applications to your preferred lender(s).

Does Corbel help generate leads or just close them?

Both. Corbel captures high-intent buyers earlier and helps sales teams close faster by reducing friction in configuration, quoting, and financing.

How long does implementation take?

Most merchants are live in weeks, not months. Timelines depend on product complexity and integrations.

Is Corbel white-label?

Yes. Corbel can be branded and embedded to match your company’s look and sales flow.

Buyers

Corbel helps you explore equipment options, understand pricing, and apply for financing - all in one streamlined experience.
What is Corbel?

Corbel is the digital experience used by your equipment seller to help you configure products, review pricing, and apply for financing.

Do I have to apply for financing to get a quote?

No. You can explore configurations and pricing without applying for financing. Financing is optional and available when you’re ready.

Is my information secure?

Yes. Corbel uses enterprise-grade security and only shares your information with authorized financing partners involved in your application.

Will this affect my credit score?

Applying through Corbel does not impact your personal credit score. The application may appear on your commercial credit profile, which is commonly used for business financing decisions.

How long does the financing process take?

In many cases, minutes to hours. More complex transactions may take longer depending on the equipment and your business profile.

Can I still talk to a sales rep?

Yes. Corbel is designed to complement human sales. Your seller remains involved throughout the process.

Why would I choose to finance equipment instead of paying cash?

Financing allows you to build commercial credit and align payments with the cash flow generated by the equipment, rather than making a large upfront payment.

Am I obligated to move forward if I apply?

No. Applying does not commit you to a purchase or financing agreement.

Can I compare payment options?

Yes. Where available, Corbel allows you to view estimated monthly payments across different terms and financing structures.
