Power Now! With Prepay

This innovative program allows you to take more control over your electric usage:

Control - No due dates; choose when and how often you purchase electricity
Convenience - Several payment options and account balance notification methods available
Savings - Manage your own usage; avoid late fees, deposits, or other collection costs

Your meter is read daily and your account balance is reduced by the previous day’s usage. If we cannot get a reading from your meter, our system will estimate your usage based on historical usage. If an estimated usage is applied, the system will “true” up the charges when a valid reading is received.

Low balance notifications are automatically sent to you through email, text message, phone, etc. You choose the method you want to use for receiving notifications through SmartHub. If the account balance reaches zero, power is automatically disconnected until payment on the account is received.

A. Existing members can choose their own due date and pay as many times as they wish throughout the month instead of paying one lump sum.

B. New members can choose this option instead of paying a deposit and have the benefit listed in “A”.

C. Disconnected members can go on this program if part of each payment is applied to their past due balance. This percentage would be determined by our Credit Manager. This would allow you to be reconnected without having to pay large balances of past due amounts to reconnect. You would also receive the benefits of “A” and “B”.

PowerNow! with Prepay gives you the greatest control over your electric usage and allows you to control when you pay for your electricity each month.

You can pay through our website (SmartHub), over the phone (866-999-8451), in person, on your mobile device, etc. If you can only pay in cash and our office is closed, you would need to purchase prepaid cash cards (Visa, MasterCard, and Discover) and pay via the phone system or website. These cards can be purchased at local banks, and retailers like Costco, K-Mart, Target and Wal-Mart/Sam’s Club to name just a few.
