Buy prepaid power tokens or settle a postpaid bill from your wallet.
Last updated June 18, 2026
Pay for electricity whether your meter is prepaid or postpaid.
Prepaid vs postpaid
- Prepaid: you pay first and receive a token to load onto your meter.
- Postpaid: you pay for power you've already used, against your account.
Pay your bill
- Tap Bills and choose Electricity.
- Select your provider (disco).
- Choose Prepaid or Postpaid.
- Enter your meter or account number.
- Enter the amount — at least 500 naira — then review and confirm with your PIN.
For prepaid, your token is shown on screen and saved to the transaction details — enter it on your meter to load the units.
Double-check your meter number before paying. Tokens are generated for the exact number you enter.
