This could be TNB (Tenaga Nasional Berhad), Sabah Electricity, Sarawak Energy, or any other electricity provider in your area. If you don’t see your biller listed, you might need to add it. There’s usually an option to “Add Biller” or “Register Biller.”
4. Enter Your Account Details: Once you’ve selected your biller, you’ll need to enter your account details. This usually includes your account number, which you can find on your electricity bill.

5. Enter the Payment Amount: Now, enter the amount you want to pay. Make sure the amount matches the amount due on your electricity bill.
