What the Bonus Is
A gift card on financing you were already going to do. It is not a rate promotion, and there is nothing to negotiate.
Crest Capital runs the Section 179 Bonus Program each year for businesses financing equipment, vehicles and software during the calendar year. If your finance agreement funds inside the program period and the amount reaches $25,000, we mail you a Visa gift card. Larger transactions earn more, on the tiers shown above, and the most any one business can earn is $716.
The bonus sits on top of whatever the financing itself is worth to you. It does not change your rate, your term, or your payment, and it does not require you to buy anything you were not already buying. Businesses use it the way they would use any other year-end saving, which is to say they take it and move on.
- Equipment, vehicle and software financing all count
- New and used business assets are both eligible
- Tiers up to $716 on $100,000 and above
- Gift cards do not expire and carry no maintenance fees
- Mailed within 30 days of funding
- One line on your application registers you
How to Claim It
Type one line on the application
On the second page of the application you will see a box labeled “Any comments for the Credit Department?” Type 2026 Section 179 Bonus Program into it. That line is what registers your application for the bonus.
Enter it when you first apply
Under the program terms the line cannot be added afterward, so it is worth doing as you go rather than planning to come back to it.
Nothing else is required
Once your financing is approved, signed and funded, the gift card is mailed within 30 days of the funding date. There is no claim form and no receipt to send.

What Qualifies, and What Does Not
The program is for businesses financing assets for business use. Crest Capital provides commercial financing only, and does not offer consumer or personal credit, so individual consumers and consumer purchases are not eligible to participate.
State limitations
The offer is not available to businesses headquartered in California, Connecticut, New York, Utah, Virginia or Vermont, and it is void where prohibited or otherwise restricted by law. This is a condition of the program itself, not a credit decision, and it applies regardless of how strong the application is.
Timing
The program period runs from January 2, 2026 to December 31, 2026, and finance agreements must be fully funded by December 31, 2026 to earn the bonus. Equipment financing takes time to document and fund, so starting well before year end is the safest way to stay inside the period.
Credit approval
Financing is extended upon credit approval at Crest Capital’s discretion and is subject to standard credit criteria. Not all businesses will qualify, and participation in the program does not imply or guarantee financing.
Taxes on the bonus
Participants are responsible for any federal, state or local taxes arising from receiving a bonus. Crest Capital may request a W-9 as a condition of issuance and may issue a 1099-MISC to participants receiving $600 or more in cumulative bonuses during the calendar year.
The full terms govern in every case. Read the complete program terms and conditions at the foot of this page before you apply.
