Signing up for new service? Our cooperative has many payment and billing options available to our members!
Billing Cycle
Our billing cycle dates are stated on your bill. Payments are due on the 17th of each month.
SmartHub
- Our SmartHub account management gateway has a lot of tools that will make seeing and paying your bill easy and convenient
- Use the SmartHub tools through the SmartHub website or download the SmartHub app from your App store
- It’s a snap with the SmartHub app!
Personal information received through our online payment system will not be rented, sold, circulated or shared by Jasper County REMC with the exception of those elements necessary to conducting the core business of Jasper County REMC.
Prepaid (Pay-As-You-Go)
Our Prepaid payment option allows you to pay for electricity as you use it. The concept is similar to watching the gas gauge in your car – When the indicator shows that the gas is running low, you fill up the tank again – Now you can do that with electricity!
Great for members who:
- Would prefer to avoid deposits, credit checks, reconnect fees
- Want the flexibility to pay what they want, when they want
Added bonus – members who prepay, generally use less energy simply because they’re more aware of how much electricity they’re using.
How It Works
- Can be used by new members and existing members
- Provides flexibility to plan more accurate monthly budgets and make smaller, incremental payments
- For example, if you only have $10 to put gas in your car, you pay $10 – the same goes for prepaid electricity
- This is an automated process through our SmartHub tools that disconnects the service when the funds are gone and reconnects the service within minutes of making a payment

Sign Up for Prepaid
If you are a new member, you will need to fill out the Membership Form and this form if you want to use the Prepaid program
Auto-Pay From Card or Bank Account
Sign up for Auto-Pay through SmartHub or fill out our Auto-Pay Agreement. We will automatically deduct your billing amount from the designated account each month.
Budget Billing
If you like the idea of paying exactly the same amount each month for your electricity, then budget billing could be right for you.
At the end of the budget period — your June bill payable in July — your account will be settled up:
- If you owe any money, you will need to pay it by the due date
- If you paid too much for the year, the overpayment will be credited to your account
We determine the monthly bill by reviewing the kilowatt-hour (kWh) history at the location.
Budget accounts are not allowed to go delinquent. If this should happen, you may be removed from the program.
Paperless Billing
You can sign-up for paperless billing through SmartHub
You will get an email or text when your bill is available to view through web, mobile or App so the co-op doesn’t have to pay for envelopes, paper, printing and postage.
You can make your payment through SmartHub so your payment is applied immediately.
After you are in the SmartHub gateway, go to My Profile > Update My Printed Bill Settings > Click off and you will be signed up for paperless billing. Then, go into Notifications > Billing and choose your contact preferences.

Credit Card & E-Check
Credit card and E-check payments can be processed via phone and through SmartHub.
It is required that we use an automated phone system to take all credit card payments by phone to deter identity theft and fraud
(844) REMCPAY is a payment-only phone number. We have established the number to ensure our members have secure payment options for credit cards and E-checks
