York Electric is committed to its members! We provide innovative services, safe power, excellent customer service and we continue to empower members with the best new technology and tools.
We realize, for many people, life never seems to slow down. For these members, YEC has made getting information about their power bill a little easier. We now have a free application for smartphones that gives co-op residential and business users fast, simple access to their accounts.
Designed to be installed on the iPhone, iPad, or the Android phone or tablet, the new YEC App allows you to see your account information, pay your bill or sign up for alerts and reminders on your mobile device.
Easy access, a powerful tool
YEC member Annette Smith enjoys the convenience of having her account information at her fingertips. “Between work and all the activities involved with my family, it’s hard to find time to sit at the computer and review my account. But with the new YEC App on my iPhone, I can get all the information I need and make a payment wherever I am. It really makes managing my account so much easier.”
Visit our mobile section for more information. Look under the Resources tab, where a drop-down menu offers a Mobile link. This page offers links to the App Store and the Android Market. We’re easy to find, just look for the YEC logo. It’s free and easy to install. Login to the app requires your member number and a password. Once those are entered, you can manage all of your YEC accounts.

Our Mobile Apps are native Apps that can be downloaded and installed on your compatible mobile device, while a Mobile Web App is a web portal that runs directly in the mobile browser on your smart phone or other mobile device. The native Apps give you secure access to maintain your account information, to view your bills and your payment history, to manage your alerts and reminders, and to make payments on one or more accounts directly from your mobile device.
The native Apps also allow you to register your accounts to receive push notifications for account milestones, such as an approaching or a missed due date. Push notifications are not available through a Mobile Web App.
