Our sample bill – clear and simple

Our interactive sample bill shows you in a clear and simple way how your bill is put together. We explain the individual items on the bill and answer key questions.

Information about the consumption data on your bill

Our new bill layout now shows you your pure consumption data. Meter readings are no longer printed.

The new bill layout focusses on the consumption data to make it clearer and easier for you to understand.

We also began a comprehensive switch to smart meter systems in 2021, and have therefore designed our new bill with these new devices in mind.

As soon as your current electricity meter is replaced with a smart meter, you’ll enjoy a range of benefits relating to your consumption data. Find out more about the new meter systems here.

Are there now more people living in your household? Are you using more devices? Or are you doing more washing than before? Also, older electrical appliances or fridges use more electricity. That could be 20 per cent more over a year. Factor in this additional consumption. Click here to go to our energy-saving tips.

  • Via mobile banking
    Please open the banking app on your smartphone. Use the QR reader to scan the Swiss QR code and trigger the payment. If scanning doesn’t work, the QR IBAN or QR reference can be typed in manually.
  • Via e-banking
    Open your e-banking. The Swiss QR code can either be read using a QR reader or scanned by your PC camera (if possible). If scanning doesn’t work, the QR IBAN or QR reference can be typed in manually.
  • At the post office counter or by payment order to your bank
    The QR payment slip can still be sent to the bank via a post office counter, at a partner branch or by payment order in an envelope.
