There are two different Origin login portals for Origin business customers:

  1. My Business Account, otherwise known as Origin Zero, is the Origin online customer portal for commercial, industrial, and large business customers.
  2. If you have a business LPG account with Origin Energy, you will use the Origin Energy LPG Login.

Setting up an Origin login for your business will allow you to:

  • Sign up for paperless bills and statements
  • See your next bill date and amount
  • Make one-off payments
  • View your billing and transaction history
  • Monitor your energy usage
  • Update your account information and contact details
  • Get in touch with Origin directly

If you want to benefit from these services, you first need to register online. Only someone authorised to act on behalf of the company can register for an Origin Energy login for your business account.

To register for a My Business account, all you need to do is contact the Origin customer service team or email [email protected] to request a new account. They will then send you an email with a one-time login password to access your account. From there, you will create a new password and can immediately start exploring your My Origin business account.

Will I still have access to my account if my contract ends?

When your contract ends, you will still have access to your Origin Login for an additional 90 days . This is to ensure that you have enough time to retrieve account information or download any bills you may need for your records.

What’s the difference between My Account and My Business Account?
