Paying Killam rent by credit card: questions
Can I pay Killam rent with a credit card?
Yes, through Chexy. Chexy charges your Visa, Mastercard or American Express and pays Killam by bill payment, which Killam accepts.
How does Killam accept rent?
By pre-authorized payments (its preferred method), through the Resident Portal, or by adding Killam as a payee in online banking. It doesn’t accept cash or e-Transfer.
I already pay Killam by pre-authorized payment. What do I do?
Ask Killam to stop the pre-authorized withdrawal before your first Chexy payment, so the same month’s rent isn’t paid twice.
Does Killam need to sign up for Chexy?
No. They get an ordinary bank payment in the amount you entered, on the date you scheduled. Nothing changes on their end.
What does it cost?
1.75% of the payment on Canadian-issued cards (2.5% on international cards), shown on screen before you confirm.
The fine print
- Killam doesn’t accept cash or e-Transfer. Chexy pays by bill payment, one of the methods Killam lists.
- Killam’s preferred method is pre-authorized payments, withdrawn from your bank account on the due date. If you’re set up for that, ask Killam to stop it before Chexy starts paying, so your rent isn’t paid twice.
- 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.
