Let’s Get Your Credits
How do you want to take advantage of credits?
Giraffe Financial provides access to tax credits for:
240 clients
Since our founding in 2023
$68 million
Across hundreds of clean energy and transportation projects
We're backed by Skyview Ventures and Momentum who have deployed $20B in advanced climate technologies since 2005

Direct Pay Credits
Giraffe Financial did a great job coming in to assist with our 2023 filing at the last minute, and helped with making sure we had the tax forms completed correctly and submitted. We had been in discussions with a major accounting firm for months on our IRA tax credits for 2024, and we scrapped that agreement to work with Giraffe for our 2024 filing instead. We received personalized attention, a high level of expertise and customer service, and weren't paying two-thirds of our tax credit in exchange for tax credit services.

Selling Transferable Credits
Navigating the credit system and structure and understanding how in the first place to leverage these credits was a challenge before Giraffe Financial. We knew of the credits, however we had no idea where to get started. Rest assured that Giraffe Financial will work with you to maximize your benefit, and ensure that all is considered to get the job done. They are reliable, fair, and a joy to work with.

Buying Transferable Credits
Giraffe made the process of leveraging tax credits to offset my passive tax liabilities simple.
