INFO ABOUT PAYING ONLINE
Through our SmartHub website and SmartHub mobile app, we accept credit card payments for electric bills and other services that have been billed to a member. In the case of electric bills, these are non-returnable merchandise and thus non-refundable, unless a miscalculation has been made in the bill or the payment. Some other merchandise which would be billed is returnable, and refunds are available where appropriate. In all cases the items for which the payments are made are already in the possession of the member at the time payment is made. When a payment is made online, the payment will be posted to your cooperative account no later than the first business day following the payment.
