Clarkesville, GA – To better serve members, Habersham EMC recently installed payment kiosks in two area convenience stores. HEMC members may now pay at Express Mart stores in Cleveland and Demorest.  “Our goal is to diversify payments options, especially for those than can’t pay their bill during the traditional working hours or have not yet embraced on-line solutions,” explained Susan Baker, Habersham EMC Director of Member Services.

Skylar Fritz of Cleveland especially appreciates the PaySite kiosks. “I use it all the time. I’m not usually in town during normal business hours, but I can come by here to make a payment any time and it posts immediately.”

“It’s convenient for HEMC members. That’s the best part,” explains Pinky Black, owner of the Express Mart stores.
