Sound familiar?

The three things every landlord deals with at month-end.

Splitting the power bill is a pain.

Spreadsheets, calculators, awkward end-of-month conversations.

Tenants question the maths.

Hard to defend a number you scribbled. Easy to defend a meter reading.

Chasing money is awkward.

Direct-credit references and clear PDFs cut the back-and-forth.

How it works

Three steps from install to invoice.

1

Install

A Barley Electrical electrician fits a smart sub-meter to each tenant's circuit. It runs on your WiFi — no WiFi on site? We fit a 4G modem instead.

2

We read

Meters report to the cloud daily. No manual reads, no guessing.

3

Tenants get their own bill

An automated invoice + a self-serve portal showing exactly what they used.

What you get

Built for landlords, sized for managers.

Per-tenant invoices

Each tenant gets a clean PDF in their inbox, with your bank details and their own payment reference.

Daily-usage charts

Bar chart of every day's kWh on every invoice. Transparency built in.

Pro-rated periods

Move-ins and move-outs bill the right number of days automatically.

Your customer portal

See who owes you what at a glance — every tenant, meter and invoice in one dashboard.

Tenant portal

A link in every email — tenants see their past bills and daily usage, no admin needed.

More than just power

Add internet, water or any fixed charge to the same invoice — one bill, everything on it.

Your rules

Your rates, your bank account, your call.

You set the rates

Choose the per-kWh rate and daily charge for every meter — sensible NZ defaults are pre-filled, change them anytime.

Money goes straight to you

Every invoice carries your bank account and a per-tenant payment reference. We never touch your money.

Always know who’s paid

Tick invoices off as the money lands — your dashboard shows exactly who still owes you, at a glance.

Tenant turnover, sorted

Line up the incoming tenant before move-out day. A fresh reading at handover means they never pay a cent of the old tenant’s power.

What your tenants see

An automated invoice, a self-serve portal, and a chart that doesn't lie.

Day-by-day transparency

What it costs

Honest pricing. No surprises.

No price wall and no spreadsheet of plans — two simple costs, zero lock-in, and a quote that fits your property.

1

One-off install cost

A registered electrician fits a Splitwatt smart sub-meter to each circuit. Pay once — the meter is yours to keep.

2

Small monthly fee per meter

Covers the daily cloud reads, the automated invoicing, and the customer & tenant portals. Pay yearly and save 10%.

3

No lock-in

Month to month. Stop any time and we credit the unused days. We’d rather earn it than trap you in a contract.

Fair to your tenantsYou set the rates at cost — tenants pay only for the power they use, with GST handled and every charge itemised on the invoice.
