The Faisalabad Electric Supply Company (FESCO) has introduced a QR code payment facility, allowing consumers to pay electricity bills and demand notices through banking apps and mobile wallets.
Developed in collaboration with the Power Information Technology Company (PITC), the service aims to make bill payments easier by eliminating the need to visit banks or wait in queues.
FESCO Chief Executive Engineer Abid Rasheed said the facility would make transactions faster and more convenient, with consumers receiving instant payment confirmation.
To use the service, consumers need to open their banking app or mobile wallet, scan the QR code printed on their original electricity bill or demand notice, verify the payable amount and complete the transaction.
The facility will remain available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, allowing consumers to pay their bills even outside regular banking hours.
Rasheed advised consumers to scan QR codes only from original FESCO bills or demand notices and verify the amount before completing payments. Consumers requiring assistance can contact the FESCO helpline at 118.
