Can I pay via my checking account instead of a crédit card?

@Monik

No, only credit and some debit cards are accepted for online payment. Sorry about that.

But you could buy a PM payment voucher locally using cash, if you prefer.

@Monik If you have a Debit Visa or Debit MC then yes just add that as your payment card in your self serve account and enable autopay to receive the $2/30 days discount and some bonus data.

HI @Monik

Sorry, not from checking account.

PM only accepts credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) and Visa Debit cards that have been issued by Canadian or American financial institutions and are associated with addresses in Canada or the U.S.

Or you can buy Voucher from retails and load using *611 or via My Account. Try to buy voucher from Shell/Loblaw/7-11 as they vouchers can be used immediately. (Some places' voucher has a 24 hours wait time)

You can also pay via retail instant top-up at at most Canadian Tire Gas, Esso, Gateway Newstands, and MacEwen locations.. You only need to tell the cashier how much you want topped up and provide them with your phone number

No, credit cards only. You can try paying with vouchers you buy with your debit card linked to chequing account.

@hTideGnow I said Debit Visa or Debit MC which debit funds from checking accounts (usually) at least mine do.

@Monik Most banks you can get a visa debit card. It's basically your checking account with a visa number for online purchases. Look into that.
