The fine print
- Guelph adds interest the day after the due date and on the first day of each month after, at 1.25% a month (15% a year), and it can’t be waived.
- Payments are applied to penalty, interest and late fees first, then to the oldest taxes.
- 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.
