Paying your Wawanesa premium by credit card: questions

What do I enter as the account number?
Your Wawanesa policy number, from your statement or policy documents.
I have home and car policies. Can I pay them together?
No. Wawanesa needs a separate payment for each policy type, so set up one Chexy payment per policy.

The fine print
- Wawanesa needs a separate payment for each policy type, each with its own policy number.
- Bank payments can take up to five business days to show on your Wawanesa account, so schedule well ahead of the due date.
- Wawanesa’s monthly automatic plan is a pre-authorized debit from your bank account and can’t be combined with other payment options.
- American Express works only when you pick the insurer from Chexy’s search bar; Visa and Mastercard work either way.
- 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.
