Step 2: Pay your bills online.
You must pay those bills, so why not get rewarded for paying them? You can pay your internet, phone, utilities, and credit card bill – like your PC® Mastercard® – from your PC Money™ Account to earn up to 5,000 points every month. Want a quick run through of how you can make a bill payment from your PC Money™ Account? See how Rohan⁴ does it.
Rohan has activated and funded his PC Money™ Account and he’s ready to pay his phone bill for the first time. Rohan logs into his online banking and clicks ‘Move Money’ followed by ‘Pay bills.’ He clicks ‘Add a new payee,’ then selects the ‘Mobile/Cable’ category to pay his phone bill. Rohan adds his mobile provider to enter the payee details. Once the payee is added, he can pay his bill and pile up the points!
Set up recurring bill payments to help you avoid late fees and put your bill payments (and points earning) on autopilot. Here’s how:
1.Log in to your PC Financial® app or online account, then click ‘Move Money.’
2.Click ‘Pay bills’ and then ‘Add a payee’ or select the payee you wish to pay.
3.Select the amount, date, and frequency of the payments. (If your frequency is more than “Just Once,” select a specific date and confirm the details.)
Step 3: Earn PC Optimum™ points.
