More than 9,000 BEMC members, over 10%, have chosen PrePay Power, our pay as you go payment system that offers a variety of advantages. Users become more energy aware, there’s no monthly bill or deposit, and you always know how much you’re spending on electricity. You pay for power in advance of when you need it. PrePay Power gives you control over your energy usage and provides flexibility, allowing you to choose when and how much to purchase.

Brunswick Electric pioneered this system in 1989 as a member benefit, another way to make members’ lives easier. Over the years, we’ve incorporated the latest technologies, and today there are multiple, easy ways to add money to your account any time of day or night—through the free SmartHub app, by calling the automated payment system, or at a Bill Payment Terminal.

One of the major advantages of PrePay Power is that you become more aware of your energy consumption, and you become a smarter energy consumer. You naturally become familiar with the activities that use the most energy, and which use less. The free SmartHub app is an easy to use tool that records your usage and helps you manage your consumption and your account as well.

Through SmartHub you can elect to receive email alerts when your account balance reaches a certain level. You can check your current account status anytime and view, in a layout of your choosing, your energy consumption by hour, day, week, and month. You can also receive high energy use email notifications to help you control your usage.

PrePay power gives you freedom from a monthly bill, the knowledge and control to become a smarter energy consumer, and the ability to know exactly how much you are spending on electricity in real time. To learn more and to switch, call (800) 842-5871 or stop by one of our offices.
