The fine print
- Rewards are set by your card issuer, not by Chexy. Check your card’s terms before a large payment.
- A bill you can already pay directly with the same card for free earns no extra rewards by moving it to Chexy. Chexy helps with bills that don’t take credit cards.
- Chexy charges your credit card 4 business days before your payment is due, then sends it on your behalf using the method your payee accepts: Interac e-Transfer, bill payment or pre-authorized debit (PAD).
