CHS accepts different payment methods.
You may pay rent in the following ways:
- Check (electronic or by mail) (there is no charge for electronic online payment from checking or savings)
- Credit Card (subject to 3.5% credit card surcharge). The system does not take debit cards.
PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU ARE PAYING BY CREDIT CARD YOU MUST ADD THE 3.5% FEE. WE CANNOT ADD IT FOR YOU.
There is no additional charge if paying from checking or savings account.
To calculate credit card payment with 3.5% fee simply multiply your rent times 1.035 (for example $1000 rent plus credit card fee would end up $1035).
