Balance alerts and notifications
SmartPay+ and SmartPay
The PrepayPower app always lets you know when your balance is low.

- Low-balance alerts when your credit reaches €10, €1 and €0.
- Notifications that Emergency Credit is available if your balance falls between €1 and -€20.
- Alerts when your balance drops to -€10 and -€20 (if you've activated Emergency Credit).
- Early-morning warnings if there's a risk of temporary power loss that day.
Reminder: You cannot temporarily lose power during Friendly Credit Hours.
