The fine print
- Payments received after July 2, 2026 are charged late penalties set by the city; check your tax notice for the amount.
- Claim your home owner grant with the Province every year, before the due date, to avoid penalties on the grant amount.
- Victoria doesn’t recommend mailing payments during mail service disruptions.
- 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.
