Prepaid and Postpaid Electricity from Acacia Energy Texas

Acacia Energy offers flexible energy plans designed to meet the diverse needs of Texas residents. Whether you prefer prepaid electricity for its convenience and control or traditional postpaid service, we provide solutions that align with your lifestyle. Let’s explore the unique benefits and features of both options to help you make an informed choice

Traditional Postpaid Electricity

Postpaid electricity plans from Acacia Energy are ideal for customers who prefer the convenience of paying after using their electricity. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Billing and Payment: Receive a detailed monthly bill that shows your electricity consumption. You’ll have approximately 15 days to make your payment. Auto-pay and paperless billing options make managing your payments simple.
  • Credit and Deposits: A credit check determines whether a deposit is required to activate service.
  • Late Payments: If you pay late, you’ll be charged a 5% late fee. Services may be disconnected if payment isn’t made within 10 days after a disconnect notice.
  • Support Options: Enjoy multiple customer service channels, including responsive texting, online chat, email, and automated phone systems for payments and account management.

Postpaid plans offer structured billing with options to fit your financial management preferences.

Prepaid Electricity Plans

Acacia Energy’s prepaid electricity plans give you more control over your electric usage and payments. Here’s how it works:

  • Eligibility: Available to customers with smart meters in the CenterPoint, OnCor, AEP North, AEP Central, TNMP, Sharyland, and Sharyland McAllen areas.
  • No Credit Check: Activate your plan without undergoing a credit check, making prepaid electricity a hassle-free choice.
  • Real-Time Account Updates: Receive daily updates via text or email about your usage and account balance, including how many days of electricity you have left.
  • Flexible Payments: Pay in advance for your electricity whenever it’s convenient. There’s no set schedule, so you can add funds when needed.
  • Transparency: Get a summary of your usage and payments anytime to stay informed and in control.

Prepaid plans are perfect for customers who want to monitor their electricity consumption closely and avoid surprises.
