The providers we work with require a soft credit check that doesn’t affect your score to determine whether your credit score meets a set threshold. If your credit score falls below that threshold, they may require a deposit to begin service. We’ll check your score against all of the providers on our marketplace so you can see the best electricity rates in Texas and find a plan to fit your needs. Check out our deposits guide for more information about the credit check process. Then, enter your ZIP code to find electric plans near you.
