How can I pay my invoice?

Paying your SEFE Energy invoice is simple and straightforward. It can be done either by Direct Debit, BACS or a one-time debit or credit card payment.

Paying your business energy bills by Direct Debit takes the hassle out of monthly payments and means you’re less likely to miss a payment. We always recommend this as the best option to manage your business gas and electricity bills.

You can find more information on Direct Debits and how to pay your bills on our Help & Support page here.
