Attention Members:

Credit Card Change

Credit Card Payment Policy Update Notice

Dear Valued Member,

We're writing to inform you about updates to our credit card payment acceptance policy at K.C. Electric Association (KCEA).

New Credit Card Payment Eligibility

Effective with September usage billed on October 1, 2025, KCEA will continue to accept credit card payments from:

  • Town Residential
  • Rural Residential
  • Non-Domestic

Important Changes

Members with electric services classified as Small Commercial, Large Commercial, Oil Well Pumping, Large Power, Street Lighting, Wind, and Irrigation will no longer be eligible to make payments by credit card. These members must use alternative payment methods such as cash, checks, electronic checks, or bank drafts.

Why We're Making This Change

These changes help us:

  • Reduce the financial burden of credit card processing fees
  • Minimize financial risk and administrative costs
  • Ensure more efficient use of KCEA’s resources
  • Maintain service integrity across our membership

If you have questions about how this policy affects your account or need assistance with alternative payment methods, please contact our Hugo or Stratton office.

Thank you for your understanding and continued membership with KCEA.
