Repair bonus for 2024

At a time when sustainability and resource conservation are becoming increasingly important, the 4th edition of the repair bonus is now sending out a strong signal for environmentally conscious action. The repair bonus is intended to help ensure that defective appliances are repaired instead of thrown away.

The principle is simple: anyone who brings a faulty appliance in for repair can apply for the repair bonus. If the application is successful, the Erfurt Consumer Center will reimburse 50% of the repair costs up to a maximum of 100 euros per person and calendar year. This makes the decision for a repair more economically attractive.
