Save 4% on your energy bills with Housing Perks
Riverside news News article
Looking for a simple way to cut the cost of your energy bills? If you're a Riverside Scotland customer and a Housing Perks member, you could save 4% on your energy payments without changing your supplier or switching tariff.
The Housing Perks Energy Card allows eligible customers to purchase discounted energy payment cards through the Housing Perks app and use them to pay their energy supplier online or over the phone.
How the Energy Card works
The Energy Card is available at a 4% discount through the Housing Perks app. Once purchased, you'll receive the card instantly on your phone and can use it to pay all or part of your energy bill.
Benefits include:
- Save 4% on your energy costs
- No need to switch supplier or tariff
- Use the card to pay all or part of your bill
- Cards available in values up to £150
- Instant delivery to your phone
- Purchase multiple cards if needed
Turn your savings into rent contributions
If you have Rent Contributions enabled within the Housing Perks app, you can choose to have your savings automatically paid into your rent account instead of keeping the discount yourself.
This can help reduce any rent balance outstanding or build up credit on your rent account while you continue to make savings on everyday essentials.
Who can use the offer?
The Energy Card is available to eligible Housing Perks members who pay their own energy bills.
You may be able to use the offer if:
✅ You pay by Direct Debit
✅ You have a pay-as-you-go meter that can be topped up online or over the phone
✅ You are on a social tariff that accepts card payments online or by phone
Unfortunately, the offer cannot be used with older meters that can only be topped up in-store using a key or fob, or by customers whose energy costs are included in their rent or service charges.
How to get started
- Download the Housing Perks app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
