Washington State is making e-bikes more affordable! The WE-Bike rebate gives residents up to $1,200 off a new electric bike.
This rebate can cover part — or almost all — of the cost of an e-bike from Bike Swift.
See if you are eligible for the income-qualified rebate using this chart.
You qualify to apply if:
Bikes must be UL2849 certified, class 1, 2, or 3, and approved by Washington State for the program. The eligible bikes that we stock at Bike Swift are listed HERE.
If there are other bikes from Aventon, Marin, or Kona that you would like to use your rebate for that aren't listed on this page, reach out! We can likely order them.

What documents do I need to apply?
You'll need proof of Washington residency, and proof of income for the income-qualified vouchers. Full details are on the WSDOT website.
Can I use the rebate on any e-bike?
Rebates are valid on approved e-bikes from participating shops — like Bike Swift! We carry several eligible models, ranging in price from $1,199 - $1,899.
Can I use the rebate on an e-bike conversion?
No, only complete, turn-key e-bikes are eligible.
What if I don’t qualify for the rebate? What if I don't get the rebate?
We still offer affordable e-bike options! Reach out — we’d love to help.
How many rebates are available?
The program administrators didn't give an exact number. However, over $4 million is available directly for rebates, and 60% of the funds are dedicated to income-qualified rebates. That equates to about 2,000 of the $1,200 income-qualified rebates, and 5,600 of the $300 standard rebates. Since the program is open to all 3 million WA households, it's likely that most applicants won't receive a rebate. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't try!
Is there a deadline?
Yes! The application deadline is April 23, 2025. Make sure you get your info in before then. There is a random selection from the pool of applicants once the application deadline closes.
