The Appliance Rescue Premium is a grant from the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Environment and Water Management to promote the repair of defective electrical appliances and thus reduce the throw-away rate. It is often cheaper for private individuals to buy a new appliance than to have an old one repaired. However, this inevitably leads to unnecessary electrical waste. The repair bonus addresses precisely this problem and promotes the repair of electrical appliances with 50% of the costs, or a maximum of €130.
Please note: With the previous repair bonus, bicycles and cell phones were also eligible. This is no longer possible with the new appliance rescuer bonus. You can find a complete list of eligible devices here:Device list
This is how it works:
Device saver voucher on the website of the Federal Ministry and download it. Redeem the voucher at a participating partner company. Pay the full invoice amount. The subsidy will then be transferred to your bank account.
