The fine print
- New Westminster adds 5% to unpaid current taxes the day after the due date and another 5% in September, including on unclaimed home owner grants. A payment one day late gets the full penalty.
- The city asks for at least 3 business days before the due date for online banking payments.
- Claim your home owner grant with the Province of BC by the due date, separately from your payment. An unclaimed grant counts as unpaid tax and gets the penalty.
- 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.
