What Our Customers Are Saying

“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”
Alfredo Gouse
Mobile Park Home Operator
“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.”
Ian Walker
Property Management Company
“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”
Kaylynn Culhane
Business Analyst
“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”
