How to access your Atmos Energy account online
To log in to Atmos Energy bill pay, go to the Atmos Energy website and select "Login" in the upper right corner. You will need your account number (found on your paper bill) and a password. If you do not have an online account yet, you can create one on the same login page by selecting "Create Account" and entering your account number, ZIP code, and email address.
The login page is the same whether you pay gas, electric, or both through Atmos Energy. Once you log in, you can view your current bill, payment history, usage data, and set up automatic payments. The account dashboard also shows your billing address and contact information, which you can update if needed.
If you are logging in from a mobile device, you can use the Atmos Energy mobile app instead of the website. The app is available on both iOS and Android and uses the same login credentials as the website version.
Key Takeaways
- Your account number appears on your paper bill and is required to create an online account or log in.
- You can create a new account on the Atmos Energy website without calling customer service.
- Once logged in, you can view your bill, set up automatic payments, and check your usage history.
- The mobile app uses the same login as the website and lets you pay on the go.
- If you forget your password, use the "Forgot Password" link on the login page to reset it by email.
What to do if you forget your password
Select "Forgot Password" on the Atmos Energy login page. You will be asked to enter your account number and the email address associated with your account. Atmos Energy will send a password reset link to that email. Click the link and create a new password. The reset link usually expires after a few hours, so check your email right away.
If you do not receive the reset email, check your spam or junk folder. If it is not there, make sure you are entering the correct email address. If you still cannot reset your password, you can call Atmos Energy customer service to verify your identity and have them help you regain access.
Setting up automatic payments through your online account
Log in to your account and look for "Payments" or "Pay My Bill" in the main menu. Select the option to set up automatic payments. You will need to enter your bank account number and routing number, or a debit or credit card number. Atmos Energy will ask you to choose a payment date each month — this is usually between the 1st and the 28th.
Once automatic payments are set up, Atmos Energy will charge your account on the date you choose each month. You can change the payment date, pause payments, or cancel automatic payments at any time by logging back into your account. Keep in mind that some payment methods (like credit cards) may carry a processing fee that Atmos Energy will disclose before you confirm.
Viewing your bill and payment history online
After logging in, select "Billing" or "My Bill" to see your current bill amount and due date. You can also view bills from previous months by selecting a date range. The online bill shows your usage, the charges for gas or electric service, any taxes or fees, and the total amount due.
Your payment history appears in the same section and shows every payment you have made, the date it was processed, and the amount. If you made a payment recently, it may take one to two business days to show up in your online history. This record is useful if you need to confirm that a payment went through or if you are disputing a charge.
Making a one-time payment without logging in
You do not have to create an account to pay your Atmos Energy bill once. On the Atmos Energy website, select "Pay as Guest" or "Make a Payment" without logging in. You will need your account number and ZIP code. Enter your payment amount and choose your payment method — bank account, debit card, or credit card.
Guest payments are processed the same way as payments from a logged-in account, but you will not be able to see your payment history or set up automatic payments. If you plan to pay online regularly, creating an account saves time because your information is saved for future visits.
Troubleshooting common login problems
If you see an error message when you try to log in, first check that you are using the correct account number. The account number is a series of digits on your bill — do not use your service address or phone number. Make sure your password is entered correctly, including capital letters and special characters.
If your account number and password are correct but you still cannot log in, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies, then try again. If you are using an older browser, update it to the latest version. If the problem continues, Atmos Energy's website may be down for maintenance — try again in a few minutes or call customer service for help.
If you see a message that your account is locked after several failed login attempts, wait 15 to 30 minutes before trying again. This is a security measure to protect your account. If you remain locked out, use the "Forgot Password" option to reset your access.
Updating your contact information and payment methods
Log in to your account and look for "Account Settings," "Profile," or "My Information." From there, you can update your email address, phone number, and mailing address. If you move to a new address within Atmos Energy's service area, you can also update your service address in this section, though you may need to contact customer service to process a move.
To change your payment method, go to "Payments" or "Billing" and select "Manage Payment Methods." You can add a new bank account or card, delete an old one, or change which method is used for automatic payments. Atmos Energy keeps your payment information encrypted for security.
Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do if I do not know my account number?
Your account number is printed on your paper bill. If you do not have a recent bill, call Atmos Energy customer service with your name, address, and phone number, and they can provide it. You will need the account number to create an online account or pay as a guest.
Can I pay my bill over the phone instead of online?
