Prepaid vs Postpaid
Prepaid meters: You buy tokens in advance and load them onto your meter. Your electricity runs until the units are used up. Bigisub delivers the token number to your email and SMS.
Postpaid meters: You receive a bill at the end of the month based on usage. You can pay your outstanding bill online through Bigisub.
Both meter types are supported on Bigisub.ng for all 11 DISCOs.
How to Find Your Meter Number
Your meter number is on the front of your electricity meter. It is usually 11-13 digits. If you cannot read it clearly:
- Check your last electricity receipt or token purchase slip
- Contact your DISCO customer service with your address
- Check if the number is printed on the meter sticker
