Key Tips for Making One-Time Payments

• Contact National Fuel if your payment isn’t reflected on your account within a few days.

• Pay your balance in full each month if possible to avoid interest charges.

Set Up Recurring Payments to Avoid Forgetting

While one-time payments are handy for catching up on a past due balance or paying early, setting up automatic monthly payments can make bill pay easier. National Fuel offers a few options:

Auto Bill Pay – Your bill is paid automatically on the due date every month directly from your bank account.

Budget Billing – Pay a fixed amount each month based on your projected annual usage.

Credit Card Auto Pay – Your credit or debit card is automatically charged for your monthly balance.

With automatic payments, you don’t have to remember to manually pay each bill. Payments are made on time every billing cycle directly from your chosen account.

To enroll in automatic payments:

1. Log into your National Fuel online account.

2. Under Payments, select Payment Options.

3. Choose Auto Bill Pay, Budget Billing, or Credit Card Auto Pay.

4. Complete the enrollment form with your account details.

5. Review and submit the form to complete enrollment.

You can cancel or change auto-pay options anytime through your online account.

Avoid Late Fees with Proper Payment

To avoid late fees and service disruptions, make sure to pay your National Fuel bill in full by the due date each month. With one-time online payments, auto-pay, budget billing, and other options, National Fuel offers flexible ways to pay your bill conveniently. Pay on time and in full each month to keep your gas service running smoothly. Monitor your account usage through your online portal as well to track your payment history and catch any billing issues early.
