Understand your starting payment and electricity cost

A common question we are asked is, Does no deposit mean I can start without paying anything? The answer is yes and no. No, because Pogo Energy does not require a deposit, but yes, because you still need to fund your account before service begins. Fund your account with at least $60. This is the money that you will use to pay for the electricity you use. A security deposit and a prepaid service balance serve different purposes: one secures an account; the other pays for usage.

If you would like to know the current rates in your area, please check your address to make sure you live in a deregulated service area that Pogo Energy can serve.

Questions about payments and account management

How do I add money to my Pogo account?

Recharge online with a credit or debit card, Apple Pay, or Google Pay. Cash payments are also available through authorized locations. Choose the method that fits your routine, and check the payment total before completing a recharge.

Does Pogo charge a fee when I recharge?

For card, Apple Pay, and Google Pay recharges, a $5 fee applies below $60; there is no transaction fee at $60 or more. Cash locations may charge handling fees. Review current payment terms before paying.

Can I use autopay with Pogo Energy?

Yes. Autopay can add funds automatically when your account reaches your selected balance threshold. Set it up during enrollment or through your account, and keep your payment method current. Daily updates help you follow your electricity use between payments.

Why is my prepaid balance going down faster than expected?

Start by comparing the kilowatt-hours used each day, the applicable rate, and any other account charges. A larger daily charge can reflect more electricity use, a pricing change, or account adjustments. Ask support to explain any amount you cannot reconcile with your usage and payment history.

For a simple budgeting estimate, divide your available electricity balance by your recent average daily electricity cost. For example, $60 divided by $6 per day is about 10 days. This is an illustration, not a Pogo price quote; actual usage, rates, fees, and other account charges can change the result.

What happens if my balance gets too low?

Pogo sends low-balance notices, and service may be at risk of disconnection when the balance falls below its required minimum. Follow the recharge amount and deadline in your account notice. If you need help, request information about a Deferred Payment Plan before the deadline.

A $25 reconnection fee applies after disconnection for a negative balance.

What if my new address has a switch hold?

Contact Pogo for help. If a previous occupant caused the hold, you may need a signed New Occupant Statement and documentation such as your lease or closing documents. Removal depends on review by the responsible parties, so allow time before your requested start date.

Who handles power outages in Corpus Christi?

Your local transmission and distribution utility handles grid repairs and outage restoration. For an address served by AEP Texas, report an outage at 866-223-8508 or through AEP’s outage page. Pogo handles your retail electricity account, payments, and service questions.

How does Pogo provide renewable electricity?

Pogo purchases and retires renewable energy certificates to match 100% of each customer’s paid annual electricity use. These certificates document an equivalent amount of renewable generation. Your home receives electricity through the shared grid, and you do not need to install solar panels
