Questions and Answers about the Customer Portal

Why should I pay my bill using the Customer Portal or mobile app?

We have set up this payment method because it is easy to use, secure, and convenient. You do not need to leave your home to manage your utility account, check your balance or due date, monitor how much electricity you are using, or pay your monthly bill.

What is the mobile app?

The BVU Authority mobile app enables you to manage your account right from your smart device, anywhere, anytime. The app is secure, easy to download, and simple to use. All you need to do is confirm what type of device you have (Android or Apple) and download the correct app from Google Play (Android) or the App Store (Apple.) Your device can only install the app developed for your operating system.

How do I find the Customer Portal?

There are a few simple ways to get to the Customer Portal. You can:

  1. On our website, select CUSTOMER PORTAL: Log In or Sign Up at the top of any page. Please do not use Internet Explorer as your browser; it is incompatible with the Customer Portal. Use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Safari, or Firefox as your browser for the best results.
  2. Download and install the mobile app for your smart device. Search for BVU Authority. When the app comes up on your screen, click "Install" (Google Play) or "Get" (App Store.) Once the app is downloaded and installed on your device, you will see a welcome screen that allows you to log in or sign up for the Customer Portal. You will need to sign up the first time you use the Portal and create your login credentials for the next time you want to use the Portal.

What do I need to sign up for the Customer Portal?

You will need some personal information to register in the Customer Portal.

  1. You will need your 12-digit account number. The account number has two sections: your location number is your first six digits before the hyphen, and the last 6-digits following the hyphen are your customer number. You will need to put in both the location number and the customer number to sign up.
  2. Next, you will need to verify your identity with AT LEAST ONE of the following:
    1. The last four digits of your social security number - your entry must match the social security number that is on file at BVU Authority
    2. Your current or most recent account balance
    3. Your phone number - Your entry must match the phone number that is on file at BVU Authority.
  3. You will see a screen to set up your account when your identity is confirmed. Once you have completed and submitted this form, you will receive an email indicating your account is activated. You can now check your bill, review statements, monitor utility usage, and make payments!
