MEPCO SMART App title card: Bills, payments, complaints and requests

MEPCO SMART is Multan Electric Power Company's own mobile app for bills, payments, complaints and connection requests. MEPCO's website lists 12 services in it, with App Store and Google Play buttons on its Our App page. Official notices name two other apps: Power Smart, which MEPCO's guides use for Apna Meter Apni Reading, and DISCO LIGHT, which a PITC notice for all distribution companies lists for supply complaints. This guide explains which app does what, how to install the genuine one, and which jobs still need a website or an office.

What is the MEPCO SMART app?

MEPCO SMART is MEPCO's official app for managing an electricity connection from a phone. MEPCO says it lets customers check their electricity bills, stay updated with important notifications and reach its services easily.

The app has its own page on MEPCO's website, Our App (mepco.com.pk/mepco-mobile-app/), with buttons for the App Store and Google Play. MEPCO's home page adds that the app sends real-time notifications, including on load-shedding schedules, service outages and MEPCO announcements.

What can you do in MEPCO SMART?

MEPCO lists 12 services, from bill payment to new connections. The table groups them by job, with MEPCO's own description of each in short form.

ConnectionsUpdate Tenant CNICUpdates the name, CNIC, phone and email

A request sent from the app is still decided by MEPCO under the usual rules. MEPCO's FAQ, for example, allows installments only on arrears in genuine cases, approved by the SDO, XEN, SE or CEO depending on the amount; the MEPCO bill installment rules explain the limits. The Pay Bill service is one of several options compared in how to pay a MEPCO bill, and a new connection applied for in the app moves on to a MEPCO demand notice before the meter is installed.

MEPCO SMART, Power Smart or DISCO LIGHT: which app does what?

MEPCO SMART handles your MEPCO account, Power Smart carries Apna Meter Apni Reading and some service requests, and DISCO LIGHT is the complaint app named in a PITC notice for all distribution companies. The table shows what each official source says about each app.

AppNamed byWhat the official source says it is for
MEPCO SMARTMEPCO's Our App pageBills, payments, complaints, NEPRA escalation, new connections, changes of owner name, load or tariff, and tenant CNIC updates
Power Smart (also written PowerSmart)MEPCO's Apna Meter Apni Reading guides, PITC's overbilling action plan, the ENC portal and PITC's net metering portalSending a photo of your own meter reading (Apna Meter Apni Reading); new connection applications, together with e-OPS; load extension requests from MEPCO consumers
DISCO LIGHTPITC's consumer awareness page, a notice for customers of every distribution companyRegistering complaints about electricity supply; the notice gives no store link or MEPCO-specific name

PITC's overbilling action plan, which MEPCO posts on its News Release page, lists the Power Smart consumer services and awareness app among its tools against overbilling. For new connections, the ENC portal tells all MEPCO users to use the MEPCO Smart App, or the PowerSmart app and e-OPS, or to visit the nearest customer facilitation centre.

The PITC notice that names DISCO LIGHT uses "DISCO" in place of a company name throughout, for example "DISCO call centre" for 118. Treat DISCO LIGHT as that notice's general label rather than a name to search for, and install only the apps that MEPCO's own pages link to.

How to get the genuine app

Start from MEPCO's own Our App page and install only what it links to, rather than searching the app stores by name.

  1. Open MEPCO's app page. On mepco.com.pk choose Our App, or go to mepco.com.pk/mepco-mobile-app/.
  2. On an iPhone, use the App Store button. It opens the MEPCO SMART listing (App Store ID 6449163231).
  3. On Android, check before installing. MEPCO's Google Play button opens a Play Store search for "MEPCO SMART", not a single listing. Pick the app with that exact name, check the publisher, and compare its services with MEPCO's list above.
  4. For Power Smart, use MEPCO's guides. MEPCO's Apna Meter Apni Reading guides carry a QR code and App Store and Google Play badges for downloading the Power Smart app.
  5. Skip APK files. Do not install app files sent over messaging apps or offered on other websites.

How does Apna Meter Apni Reading work in Power Smart?

You photograph your own meter and send the reading through the Power Smart app, and MEPCO's guide says the photo is compared with the one the meter reader takes. MEPCO presents it as a way to get a correct bill and to control overbilling.

MEPCO's single-phase guide shows three steps:

  1. Open the app and tap the meter reading icon.
  2. Enter your 14-digit reference number.
  3. Photograph the meter. The reading and the meter's serial number must be clearly visible; the guide contrasts a sharp photo with a blurred one.

MEPCO publishes separate Urdu guides for single-phase, three-phase and net (solar) meters on its News Release page, with matching videos on its Customer Services Improvement Plans page. Reading dates and each meter type are covered in how to read your MEPCO meter.

What still needs a website or an office?

Official sources send several jobs to PITC websites or MEPCO offices, and some of them are not in MEPCO SMART's service list. The table shows where each one goes.

Frequently asked questions

Which app do I need for the subsidy QR code?
None. The Cross Subsidy Program runs on the website css.pitc.com.pk, which offered no app as of September 2026. The portal says scanning the QR code on your bill takes an eligible consumer directly to the registration page; you can also type your reference number on the site. Be wary of apps that claim to register you.
Can the Power Smart app show my meter reading date?
MEPCO's Apna Meter Apni Reading guide shows the Power Smart app asking for your 14-digit reference number so that it can show the meter reading schedule. MEPCO's FAQ adds that meters are read once a month on the reading date printed on the bill.
What is the DISCO LIGHT app?
PITC's consumer awareness notice, written for customers of every distribution company, lists a mobile application called DISCO LIGHT for supply complaints but gives no store link or MEPCO-specific name. MEPCO's website gives store links only for MEPCO SMART, which has its own Complaints service; PITC's complaint website and the 118 helpline also take complaints.
Does MEPCO SMART replace the 118 helpline?
No. The app adds a complaints service, but the 118 helpline, SMS to 8118 and PITC's complaint website remain official channels. PITC's consumer awareness page lists the 118 call centre for complaints about electricity supply.
