The fine print
- Markham adds a 1% penalty to an unpaid instalment, then 1.25% interest on the first day of each month it stays unpaid.
- Markham’s pre-authorized plan (4, 6 or 11 instalments) draws from your bank account.
- 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.
