September 7, 2017
Plastiq is an online bill payment processing system that allows you to pay bills you’d normally pay in cash or with a check on a debit card (for a 1% fee) or credit card (for a 2.5% fee). Right now Plastiq is running a promotion to lower that credit card fee to 1.5% if you use your MasterCard to pay three mortgage payments before the end of 2017.
The cap you can save on fees is $200, which means the promo fee rate of 1.5% applies to just your first $20,000 in mortgage payments.
