As a customer of Tallapoosa River Electric Cooperative (TREC), you have several ways to pay your monthly electric bill. TREC offers online, phone, mobile, and in-person payment options to fit any lifestyle. In this article, I’ll outline the different methods for paying your Tallapoosa River Electric bill and provide tips for choosing the right one for you.

Online Bill Payment

TREC makes paying online fast and easy through their Customer Portal or third-party bill pay services.

TREC Customer Portal

The easiest way to pay online is through TREC’s Customer Portal at https://olb.trec.coop/onlineportal/. The portal allows you to:

• View your current account balance and billing history
• Make a one-time payment
• Set up recurring auto-payments
• Pay multiple accounts at once
• Store payment methods for future use

To use the Customer Portal, you’ll need to create an account with your TREC account number, name, and email address. The portal accepts Visa, Mastercard, Discover, checking account, or savings account. Payments process instantly.

I like the Customer Portal for the convenience of managing my account in one place. I’ve set up monthly auto-payments through the portal so I never miss a due date.

Third-Party Bill Pay Services

You can also pay your TREC bill through third-party services like doxo, a secure online utility payment platform doxo lets you pay one-time or recurring bills from thousands of providers using a single account.
