Paying Kelowna property tax by credit card: questions
Can I pay Kelowna property tax with a credit card?
The City of Kelowna takes credit cards through its online Property Account, for a non-refundable processing fee. Chexy charges your Visa, Mastercard or American Express and pays the City of Kelowna by bank bill payment, for 1.75% on Canadian cards.
Which payee and number do I use in Chexy?
Choose the Property Taxes category, pick Kelowna property taxes and enter your tax folio number from your property tax notice, without the decimal point (123.456 becomes 123456). If it’s shorter than the minimum length, add zeros in front.
How early should I pay?
Chexy charges your card when you pay and sends the payment 3 business days later, so pay well before the due date. The City of Kelowna counts the payment when it’s received.
What if I pay late?
Kelowna adds a 10% penalty to taxes not received by the first business day in July, and it can’t be changed once applied. Unpaid taxes start earning interest on January 1 of the next year.
Does the city need to sign up?
No. They receive an ordinary bank payment in the amount you entered, on the date you scheduled.
The fine print
- Kelowna adds a 10% penalty to taxes not received by 11:59 p.m. on the first business day in July, and the city can’t change it once applied. Taxes still unpaid on January 1 of the next year are also charged interest.
- Claim your BC Home Owner Grant, if eligible, before the deadline too. It’s separate from your payment.
- Kelowna says bank payments can take up to five business days to process, so don’t leave it to the last week.
- 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.
