You pick the light company. TNMP handles the wires. Think of it like choosing a cell phone carrier - they all use the same towers.

The honest tradeoff: on a typical month's usage, the average pay-as-you-go plan here runs about $40 more than the average contract plan. That's the price of skipping the deposit and the credit check. Before you pay to start prepaid, let us check whether a light company will take you with $0 down.

These figures cover the plans we list in the Texas-New Mexico Power area, not every plan in Texas. Rates reflect typical monthly usage as of the date above. Prices change, so always confirm the rate with the light company before you sign up.

Same-Day Service in TNMP Areas

When you sign up for a pay-as-you-go plan in a TNMP area, your light company sends the connection request to TNMP. They flip the switch.

Most same-day orders placed before 3 PM on weekdays get connected the same day. After the cutoff, your lights come on the next business day.

Tip: Sign up early in the day for the best chance at same-day lights. Weekend and holiday orders process on the next business day.
