The fine print
- Calgary adds 7% of unpaid current taxes on July 1 and again on October 1, then 1% a month on arrears from January.
- Payment must be received by the city by the due date, not just sent.
- Paying to the wrong roll number costs a $25 fee to correct.
- Rewards are set by your card issuer, not by Chexy.
- Chexy accepts Visa, Mastercard and American Express credit cards in your name. Prepaid cards aren’t supported. Some categories (mobile, internet, gym and car leases) need Visa or Mastercard, and for utilities and taxes American Express works with eligible billers only. Logos show accepted networks, not an endorsement.
