Reason to Use Topupmeters for
Private landlords
Private landlords can use smart meters to recharge energy to tenants
Are you a landlord with a rental property? If so, you might want to consider installing sub-meters to charge your tenants for their energy usage.
Sub-meters are energy meters that measure the electricity, gas and water consumption of each unit or sub-let space in your property. They allow you to set fair and accurate rates for your tenants, and they can pay you through a convenient prepayment system.
This way, you can avoid the risk of including energy costs in the rent agreement, which might lead to tenants wasting energy and costing you money. Sub-meters are easy to install and maintain, and they can help you save money and energy in the long run.
The easy way to go cashless prepayment
Topupmeters lets tenants pay for energy online with their credit or debt card. The topups are sent right away through the 4G mobile network.
Each meter has a network roaming SIM card that makes sure the topups are received every time.
Topupmeters is a cashless service, but landlords can still add credit through the Topup Gateway if they need to. For example, if they get cash payment over the counter. Tenants get all the perks of a smart meter, and more. They can check their credit balance online anytime, get alerts by email and text when their credit is low, and see reports on their energy usage history.
Secure & simple
Are you looking for a hassle-free way to manage your bills online? Look no further than our secure online payments service, which lets you keep track of your spending and payments.
Topups can be made using any major card to pay through our trusted partner Stripe, which charges only a minimal fee of 1.2%+20p per transaction. This fee is paid by the vendor (for example, the landlord). Plus, every month, you will receive a topup revenue in your account to pay the bill payer. How awesome is that? Don't miss this opportunity to simplify your life and save money with our online payments system.

WHAT OUR CUSTOMERS ARE SAYING
Before we had to maintain a manned office for taking cash payments for issuing card tokens. Now our residents can buy energy online 24/7 for instant credit top-ups. The convenience and ease of use is impressive and Dominic’s team have been a pleasure to work with.
We were using historic card meters in many of our properties. Keeping a stock of £10 cards for issuing credit was causing a headache for us and our commercial and domestic tenants. Changing to Topupmeters means we can manage tenant’s energy from anywhere at anytime minimising operational costs and making our life a lot easier.
The ability to manage meters remotely from a web portal has been incredibly beneficial. Using smart meters has helped identify energy wastage and clamp down on fraudulent behaviour with old card meters
We upgraded from coin operated meters to the Topupmeters system and can’t believe how much easier it is to use for our tenants.
With Topup prepay smart meters our customers only pay for the energy they use. Previously it was part of their rental agreement where the electricity was included in the rental agremeent but some customers were using considerably more than others who were only there for a few weeks of summer. Now we have a much fairer system thanks to Topupmeters
