Paying your Equitable Life premium by credit card: questions
Can I pay Equitable Life with a credit card?
Yes. Chexy charges your card and pays Equitable Life by online bill payment with your policy number.
What do I enter as the account number?
Your Equitable Life policy number. Every payment to Equitable must include it.
I have two policies. Can I pay them together?
No. Equitable needs a separate payment for each policy, so set up one Chexy payment per policy.
Can someone else pay my premium?
Yes, but if it’s not the owner, the owner’s spouse or the insured, Equitable asks for a completed third-party form (Form 31).
What does it cost?
1.75% of the payment on Canadian-issued cards (2.5% on international cards), shown before you confirm.
The fine print
- Equitable needs a separate payment for each policy, and every payment must include the policy number.
- If someone other than the policy owner, the owner’s spouse or the insured pays, Equitable asks for its third-party form (Form 31).
- American Express works only when you pick Equitable Life from Chexy’s search bar; Visa and Mastercard work either way.
- 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.
