Match My Payment Program

In 2026, PG&E committed an additional $50 million to extend bill assistance programs, including PG&E REACH and Match My Payment. In 2025, these PG&E programs helped nearly 64,000 customers help manage past-due energy bills.

PG&E's Match My Payment program provides bill assistance to eligible customers. Enroll to match every dollar you pay up to $1,000 toward your past due balance.

• Have a PG&E residential account in the name of the adult living in the household 
• Make a payment of $50-$1,000 toward your overdue bill, so that PG&E can match your payment after your enrollment is confirmed
