When Should I Schedule My Rent Payment?

When to Schedule Rent Payment Relative to Due Date

Updated this week

Rent due on the 1st?

Set your Chexy due date 4–6 business days before the 1st.


Why?

Chexy requires:

  • 4 business days for bank settlement

  • Additional buffer for weekends and holidays

Banks do not process payments on weekends or statutory holidays.


Example

If your rent is due February 1,

your recommended Chexy due date is:

January 25–27 (depending on holidays)


Important: December & Holiday Months

December includes multiple bank holidays.

If you have an active subscription, your charge may process earlier than expected.

This happens because of bank closures and settlement timing.

We cannot control bank processing schedules.

We also cannot guarantee the exact same calendar charge date every month.


If You’re Using PAD

If your landlord pulls rent via PAD:

  • Simply ensure your Chexy subscription is active.

  • Your landlord will initiate the withdrawal.

Chexy will process the charge based on when the withdrawal is submitted.
