Payment Options

Pay online or with SmartHub app

Pay online by setting up an online account on your computer or the SmartHub app on your mobile device! You can pay your bill online, see your monthly statements, and even track your energy usage by the month, day and hour with our billing and usage analysis program. Receive a $1 per month credit by choosing a paperless bill.

You can also pay cash with SmartHub through Vanilla Direct. Use the barcode located in your SmartHub app at any Dollar General or Family Dollar for a small fee (nearby locations include Minot, Velva, Burlington & Harvey). Find SmartHub on the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.

Auto Pay withdraws your payment around the 22nd of each month from an account of your choice (checking, savings, American Express, Visa or MasterCard). There are no additional fees for this service. Sign up through our SmartHub app. Card payments cannot exceed $6,000 per month per member. If the withdrawal is from a checking or savings account, you will receive a $1 per month credit on your bill each month!

Bring your statement into your local MoneyGram provider. The payment will post to your account immediately. MoneyGram requires you have your account number and agency receive code in order to make a payment. Verendrye's agency receive code is: 15420. MoneyGram is available in Minot at Walmart or CVS Pharmacy. Walmart or CVS may charge you a small fee for using their services.

Keep your bills consistent throughout the year by enrolling in Budget Billing. To calculate your Budget Billing amount, we take an average of the last 12 months billing. This 12 month average amount is then increased by 15%. This adjustment should help assure that even if the weather is colder or hotter than normal your budget amount should cover your electric bill. This is the amount you would pay for the next 11 months. On the 12th month, the balance between what you paid and what you used is settled. At this time a new Budget Billing amount would be recalculated for the following year. You must be on VEC service for at least one year with good standing credit at VEC to qualify and sign up for budget billing.
