Some folks use paytm or similar... fees involved. Check credit cards thread.
Canadian Tire credit cards have bill pay feature [no fees] and earn cash back.

If you have Cdn Tire credit card and sufficient limit, you can use Cdn Tire CC to pay without fee and earn a bit of cash back or CT money. Make sure you have the correct city as payee. Cdn Tire city payee list can be confusing which I recently found out first hand. LOL
If you have a credit card you need to need min spend for welcome bonus, you can pay via PayTm, Plastiq, Paysimply, etc.
For property tax, those cards typically charge 2.5% fee.
Or check your city's tax website and see if you can use credit card to pay them directly. Several years ago, I could directly pay city with my credit card without a fee. Now they charge 2% which is still lower than the 2.5% fee via other platforms.
Make sure to give yourself several days for city to receive your credit card payment.

Make sure the reward from your CT cc is cash back vs. CT Money if you don't shop at CT bannered stores.starchoice wrote: ↑ Yea, definitely use the CT card for no fee + cash-back.

What? I didn't know we could have that option. Is it the same rate for cash back or CT money?ml88888888 wrote: ↑ Make sure the reward from your CT cc is cash back vs. CT Money if you don't shop at CT bannered stores.

Different CT MCs have different rewards, i.e. cash back or CT Money. I don't mean you can choose different rewards for the same CT MC. Which CT MC do you have?
Cash Advantage® Mastercard earns real cash back while other CT MCs earn CT Money.
