Pay Your Shenandoah Valley Electric Bill | Fast & Secure SVEC Options

Shenandoah Valley Electric Cooperative (SVEC) delivers reliable electric service to more than 104,000 meters across Augusta, Clarke, Frederick, Highland, Page, Rockingham, Shenandoah, and Warren counties in Virginia, plus the city of Winchester. Members can pay bills quickly and securely through official channels with no need for third-party services.

One-Time Guest Payment (No Account Required)

The fastest option for occasional or new users is the secure one-time payment portal linked above. It accepts major credit and debit cards and posts payments immediately to your account. This guest-friendly method requires only your SVEC account number and name — no username or password needed.

Pay Online Through Your Account or MySVEC App

Registered members can pay anytime via the SVEC online portal or the free MySVEC mobile app (available on the Apple App Store and Google Play). The app lets you pay bills, report outages, and receive real-time notifications. You must first create an online account at svec-online.coop to use the app for payments. Paperless billing is also available so you receive email alerts when your bill is ready.

Free Auto Pay (Bank Draft)

SVEC offers a completely free Auto Pay program that automatically deducts your bill amount from your checking or savings account on the scheduled draft date. This secure option eliminates late fees, check writing, and postage while ensuring on-time payment every month.

Members with an online account can often enroll directly through the “Payments” or “AutoPay” section of the svec-online.coop portal. Alternatively, download the Auto Pay authorization form from the official SVEC website, complete it with a voided check or savings deposit slip, and return it to SVEC. Your account must have a zero balance before enrolling, changing, or canceling participation. You will still receive a monthly bill showing the upcoming draft amount and date.

24/7 Payment Kiosks

Payment kiosks provide round-the-clock access seven days a week. Pay with check, Visa, MasterCard, or Discover — with no transaction fee at kiosks. Payments post immediately and you receive a printed receipt.

Kiosks are located at:

  • Rockingham Headquarters (one inside the building and one in the outside drive-thru lane)
  • Augusta (Staunton) office
  • Mt. Jackson office
  • Luray office
  • Winchester office

Office Drop Boxes

You can drop off payments (check or money order only) at the secure drop boxes located at the Augusta, Luray, Rockingham, and Winchester offices. There is no drop box at the Mt. Jackson office. Drop boxes are available even when lobbies have limited hours.

Pay by Phone

Call SVEC’s automated or customer service line at (800) 234-7832 to make a payment. Have your account number ready. This option is available during business hours and supports common payment methods.

Pay by Mail

Mail your payment using the return envelope included with your bill. Use a check or money order only — do not send cash. Payments should reach SVEC by the late payment penalty date shown on your bill to avoid fees. The mailing address is the same as the headquarters: 180 Oakwood Drive, Rockingham, VA 22801.
