PumpSwap NZ is the New Zealand edition of the PumpSwap platform. NZ gas reserves fell 27% in a year to a 20-year low, household gas prices are rising, and most NZ homes still heat water with an electric cylinder, so the switching market is real on both fronts.

How it works

1.

Homeowner searches Google

They land on a PumpSwap NZ page (e.g. “hot water heat pump cost” or “Rheem hot water heat pump price”), read the pricing, get straight answers on incentives, decide they want to buy.

2.

They request a quote

Contact details (name, mobile, email, postcode), current system type, urgency, household size. Format-validated at submission. Their info is emailed to you within minutes.

3.

You call them, you win the job

Speed-to-lead matters. Call within 1 business day. You quote, install, keep 100% of the job revenue. We charge you $50 + GST ($57.50 inc) at the moment you click Accept, via Stripe on your business credit card. No invoicing, no chase emails.

FAQs

What does “qualified lead” actually mean?

A person who submitted the quote form with: format-valid NZ phone number, format-valid email, 4-digit New Zealand postcode, current hot water system type, timeline, and region. We do NOT verify property ownership or confirm the person is who they say they are. If a lead looks like a duplicate, test submission, or has invalid contact info, flag it within 7 days and we investigate manually before crediting your account.

When does billing start?

Your first lead is free. From lead 2 onwards, each accepted lead is $50 + GST ($57.50 total) charged at Accept click via Stripe Checkout on your business credit card. No subscription, no invoicing, no payment reminders.

What if a lead is low quality?

Flag it via the reject link within 7 days. We review each flagged lead manually and credit your invoice if we agree it was invalid. We track rejection patterns as part of quality monitoring on both sides of the marketplace.

Are leads exclusive?

No. Up to 2 other local installers may receive the same lead (hard cap of 3 installers per lead, enforced in code). First 3 to accept win; others get an auto-decline email. If you want territorial exclusivity, we offer a separate retainer model for manufacturers and national partners.

What areas do you cover?

We publish cost pages for suburbs across all 15 NZ regions. You set your base postcode and how far you travel (up to 150km), and we match you to leads inside that radius. Adjust it anytime from your dashboard.

Can I pause or change my area?

Yes - anytime, from your own dashboard. Update your base postcode and travel radius, see every lead you have received, and pause or resume leads with one click. No phone calls, no waiting on us.

What systems do you focus on?

Hot water heat pumps primary. Solar panels, battery storage, and EV chargers are additional verticals with separate partner programmes in the same network.

Do you work with manufacturer networks?

Yes. Enterprise partnerships with manufacturer and national installer networks are welcome. Email josh@pumpswap.com.au for a retainer conversation.

Are you affiliated with a brand?

No. PumpSwap is independent. We receive zero manufacturer commissions. Our revenue is installer lead fees only.

Ready to stop paying for bad leads?

NZ’s gas supply is shrinking and around 270,000 North Island homes face rising gas bills, while most of the country still heats water with an electric cylinder. We are positioning to become New Zealand’s canonical hot water heat pump referral. Get in early.
