Is a prepaid electricity plan right for you?
The benefit of living in the deregulated energy market we have in Texas is that you are able to choose the company that best meets your home’s electricity needs.
Many electricity companies across Texas offer fixed-rate electricity plans that are billed at the end of the billing cycle but may require that you pay a deposit upfront before service starts.
Whether you are in temporary housing, an international student, a recent high school graduate, or perhaps difficult life events negatively impacted your credit score.Â
Whatever your circumstance may be a prepaid electricity plan provides the freedom to power your home without a credit check or a hefty upfront deposit.
You do not need a social security number or a credit record to establish a service with a pre-paid energy plan.
If you are required to pay a deposit for a post-pay plan, and you don’t have money to pay that deposit, one of your last options is to enroll in a pre-paid plan.
Pay-as-you-go electric plans in Texas allow you to receive daily balance updates via text or email. When the balance runs low, simply add more funds through your online account, by phone, or in person at local payment stations.

Prepaid electricity FAQs
What is prepaid electricity?
Prepaid electricity is a type of electric plan that allows customers to control their electricity use by paying before they use it. These plans require you to maintain a minimum balance on your account to cover the monthly electricity you use. The plans are known as pay-as-you-go plans because of their flexibility.
What are the benefits of prepaid electricity?
