A prepayment meter allows you to pay as you go for energy. You pay using a token, key or smart card which you charge up at local stores. If you don't recharge your token, key or card, you'll run out of energy.

 A prepayment meter can be a good way to budget for your energy, if you are on a low income or your income goes up and down a lot. But it's also usually the most expensive way to pay.

How prepayment meters work

The main types of prepayment meters are:

 key meters. They have electronically coded keys which are specific to the meter and contain tariff information which is updated when you charge the card smart card meters. These download information about your usage onto the card to send back to your supplier when you top up token or card meters. Rarely used now. They need to be adjusted manually whenever the tariff changes.

Your supplier will give you a list of the places to charge up the card, token or key charged. The meter records the amount of gas or electricity used.
