Your online account lets you do all of this:

SmartHub - Payment Only

Pay Now

SmartHub – Pay Now
No registration is required. Just use your billing account number and your last name or the name of your business to pay your bill quickly and easily. Please note that Pay Now only allows you to pay your bill. Unlike the full SmartHub site, you cannot view your usage or report an outage. See the full SmartHub site for additional features, including monitoring your usage and reporting an outage.

Auto Pay Program

Save time and avoid the hassle of writing a monthly check with our FREE automatic bill payment plan.

Sign up now, and the amount of your bill will be automatically deducted from your checking or savings account by the due date. NOTE: Your first payment will be drafted from your account after you receive your first bill noting you are signed up for automatic payment.

You will still receive a monthly statement about 12 days prior to your scheduled bank draft. Some restrictions may apply. To sign up for bank draft, please print the appropriate form below, complete the application, then mail it, or bring it to one of our offices along with a blank voided check.

You will need to download and install the Adobe Acrobat Reader to access the application.

Setting up Credit Card and Monthly Recurring Payments
You can pay your electric bill using your credit or debit card. This can be paid by you each month or set up for automatic, recurring payments each month.

To sign up for a recurring credit/debit ­card payment, simply log into your Smart Hub account and set up a recurring credit/debit payment. NOTE: Members are responsible for updating ­card information, including the expiration date.

Payment Kiosk

We have a convenient drive-thru payment kiosk located at our Greenville office, where you can make payments any time without transaction fees. Be sure to have your account number on hand to complete the transaction. The payment kiosk accepts cash, e-check or credit card. The payment kiosk does not dispense change, so if you pay with cash, you can either pay with the exact amount of cash or the difference will be credited to your next bill.

Pay Stations

To make paying your energy bill more convenient, we have authorized MoneyGram Express Pay, Fidelity Express, and Western Union QUICK COLLECT to accept payments. Now you can pay your bill while running errands and have the payment credited to your account the same day.

NOTICE: Fidelity Express and MoneyGram fees are being waived at this time. A fee of $1.50 will be applied by Western Union to all transactions for processing Farmers EC payments.

MoneyGram Express Pay

For many MoneyGram locations, including Wal-Mart, you will complete a blue ExpressPayment form with the following information:

At other MoneyGram Express Pay locations, including CVS/pharmacy, please follow these steps:

  • Pick up the red MoneyGram phone – it will auto dial MoneyGram Customer Service

  • Enter your telephone number

You will then be connected to a live MoneyGram agent who will ask you to confirm your telephone number, name, address, account number, the amount of your payment, and the Farmers EC Receiver Code of 7478.

(MoneyGram Receiver Code ensures payment is able to post within 15 minutes of payment. Not using the Receiver Code can delay our receipt/knowledge of the payment by up to 3 days.)

You will need to write down the information from the MoneyGram agent and take it to the cashier who will collect the cash and complete the payment.

Note: If you are paying late and it is after the due date on our Termination Notice, please call 903 455 1715 with your MoneyGram confirmation number.

When using Fidelity Express, you will need to take your bill stub to the clerk. The clerk will image the stub when you make your payment and return it to you with your proof of payment receipt. Please keep the validated receipt in case verification is necessary. Payments are processed in real time from 7am to 8pm seven days a week. Fidelity Express accepts cash, check or money order.
