Residents in Sharjah have a new convenient way to pay their utility bills through the Digital Sharjah platform, as announced by authorities on Sunday. The updated service now offers a new and improved user interface designed to enhance the overall user experience. Customers of the Sharjah Electricity Water & Gas Authority (Sewa) can easily view the amounts due on their accounts, whether they are linked to their Emirates ID or added manually. Customers can also access current and previous bills as PDF documents, with up to 10 previous bills available, and can easily lodge complaints or objections regarding those bills.
The initiative by the Sharjah Digital Department (SDD) reflects the department’s commitment to continuously enhancing platform services to ensure efficient and prompt service delivery. Through ongoing improvements, SDD aims to enhance the user experience and provide added value and convenience with each update.

The development of the Sewa bill payment service was driven by user suggestions and feedback collected through various communication channels. The department also shares instructional videos in both Arabic and English on its social media accounts to guide users on using the platform’s services. SDD offers over 60 services from 19 government and private entities, covering essential sectors in Sharjah.
