- Screen before the consult
  Verdict returned before the coordinator dials.
- Purchasing power surfaced
  Not just FICO, actual affordability range.
- BNPL fallback
  DNQ files get an installment path, not a rejection.
- Consult show rate lifts
  Qualified leads show up because the offer is realistic.

## Why Med Spas Need It

The average med spa books 40% of inbound leads for a consult, but only 12–18% of those consults convert to a treatment purchase. The gap is almost entirely affordability, the prospect wanted the outcome but couldn't finance the ticket. Pre-qualification surfaces purchasing power at intake, so coordinators book consults with the top 40% of qualified prospects and route the rest to BNPL or a lower-ticket treatment.

## What It Screens

- Soft-pull FICO tier
- Estimated purchasing power (available revolving + BNPL capacity)
- BNPL eligibility (Affirm, Klarna, Cherry, Alphaeon)
- Existing derogatory that would block financing

## Coordinator Workflow

1. 01
   Lead submits form
   Name, phone, email, treatment interest. Consent captured.
2. 02
   Pre-qualification fires
   Verdict returned in under 2 seconds with FICO tier, purchasing power range, and BNPL eligibility.
3. 03
   Coordinator sees the verdict
   Qualified files are booked at the earliest slot; DNQs get a BNPL-only offer or a lower-priced service.
4. 04
   Consult happens with context
   The coordinator knows the affordability range and can pitch a treatment plan that fits.

## Frequently Asked Questions

- Does pre-qualification affect the med spa's Cherry or Alphaeon approvals?
  No, pre-qualification is a soft inquiry. It surfaces likelihood of approval without submitting a formal application to the financing partner.
- What happens to leads who don't qualify?
  They're routed to a BNPL-only offer (Affirm/Klarna) or a lower-ticket treatment, not rejected. Roughly 25–35% of DNQs convert on a fallback offer.
- Do I need patient PHI to run pre-qualification?
  No. Pre-qualification uses name, phone, email, and address only. No treatment history or PHI is required.
