Payment Options
You have several options to pay your BC Hydro bill.
Online banking
Most banks offer online banking and bill payment services. Visit your bank's website and select BC Hydro as a payee. You can also pay in person at your local branch.
Pre-authorized payments
Pay your bills automatically from your bank account. You can enroll for pre-authorized payments online or set up pre-authorized payments by mailing in a form. You'll need your bank account details (found on your cheque).

Credit card
You can pay by MasterCard using Paymentus, a third-party service that charges a fee for each payment you make. Make a one-time payment, or set up recurring payments.
To pay with your credit card over the phone, call Paymentus at 1 877 543 8357.
Electronic Funds Transfer
Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) is a convenient way for your company to make payments and avoid the time needed to create, process and send multiple cheque payments. You must be a BC Hydro business customer to qualify.
Complete the EFT request form.

Service BC locations

Can't pay right now?
If you can't pay before your bill is due, you may be able to make a one-time payment deferral. Payment deferrals are granted if the account is in good standing and all past payment arrangements have been made.
If the amount owing is not paid by the due date on your bill, a late payment charge will be applied and your credit rating with BC Hydro may be impacted.
You will be directed to the full site to log in to MyHydro to defer a payment.
Made a late payment?
If you've made a payment after the due date, you can avoid disruption of your service by providing us with details of your payment using our online service.
