Choose the Bill Payment Option That Suits You...

Bank Draft Direct Payment

Direct Payment is the most convenient, reliable and least expensive way to pay your monthly electric bill. You save time by not writing checks for the monthly payment. It also saves you the cost of postage and you no longer have to worry about your payment being lost in the mail.

Members will continue to receive a monthly bill card which will contain all billing information and a reminder that your account is on the Direct Payment Plan. Your payment will be automatically deducted from your checking account each month on the due date shown on your bill card

Credit Card Payment

South Alabama Electric Cooperative accepts Visa, Master Card, American Express and Discover in our main office location on Highway 231 in Troy. We can now accept credit card payments over the phone. You must have your electric account number and credit card information to use this service.

Levelized Billing

Levelized billing is designed to eliminate the drastic fluctuations in your monthly electric bill. Even though your bill will vary month to month, it will be based on an average monthly kilowatt hour usage. This reduces the extreme bills you experience in the late summer or winter.

Levelized billing is a great program alone or used in conjunction with the Bank Draft Direct Payment Plan.
