Different payment options

There are 2 options for paying your credit card balance. Choose the one that works best for your business. 5

Centralized payments

Make a single payment each month to your business's main Desjardins credit card account (master account). This single payment will pay off your card and all other cards associated with your master account at the same time. 

Decentralized payments 

Pay the balance of each card associated with your master account separately. This frees up each card's credit limit as soon as the payment is processed.

Second credit limit

With Accord D Business financing, you can get a second credit limit for your card of up to $100,000. 1

You can repay it in equal monthly installments with a term of 1 to 7 years depending on the financing amount. You can also repay the balance in full or in part at any time without penalty.
