Gift payments

Help family members or friends by making a payment to their Pacific Power account

Want to help a struggling college student or a neighbor in need pay their electric bill? We can help.

With gift pay, you choose whatever amount you’d like to pay. For security reasons, we can’t let you know the intended recipient's account balance, but one of our customer care specialists can help you choose an amount to give if you need help.

There are four ways to make gift payments:

Pay online

Make a bank payment online using our gift pay process. Provide as much information as possible and we’ll work to determine the account your gift should be applied to.

If you are logged in, you will need to log out to use gift pay.
