Octopus Key and Card

Description

Instead of receiving post-usage bills for your energy consumption, our system allows you to pre-load energy credits onto your meter before usage. If you already possess a second-generation (SMETS2) smart meter, we have the capability to remotely switch your payment mode. Rest assured, we always inform you in advance before making any changes to your meter.

For those with a first-generation (SMETS1) smart meter, we encourage you to reach out to our team to discuss your specific situation.

With a prepayment smart meter, you have the flexibility to top up your energy credits through various channels, including online, our app, in-store, or over the phone with our energy specialists. In-store top-ups can be conveniently done at any PayPoint location by using the barcode on your app or providing the cashier with your top-up number (PAN). If preferred, we can also send you a card with a barcode for PayPoint transactions.

For customers with traditional meters that do not automatically transmit readings, we provide a top-up key for electricity and a top-up card for gas. These keys/cards contain information about your property and energy tariff and can be used to replenish your meter balance at local payment points.
