With Fizz, you pay for your plan each month via automatic pre-authorized payments planned 72 hours before the start of your billing cycle. Example. Your payment cycle ends on the 5th of every month. The automatic payment of your plan therefore takes place on the 3rd of the month, and your new cycle starts on the 6th. If a payment fails, you’ll receive automatic reminders that will tell you what you need to do along with the deadline that applies, to pay for your plan yourself to avoid it from being suspended or even cancelled. Please note that Fizz is a prepaid service, and the payment date is fixed and cannot be changed. Additionally, no payment arrangements can be made. Please also note that the total amount of your bill must be paid in a single transaction — it cannot be split between multiple credit cards. My credit card is expired. You must update your payment method at least 72 hours before the end of your payment cycle to make sure your account is updated in time for your next payment. Before removing the card currently associated with your account, you’ll need to add a new one first. My Settings > Payment Methods > Add a new payment method Once your payment method has been updated in your Fizz account, you must associate it to each plan you want to pay with that card. That is not done automatically. My Plans > Manage Plan > Payment Method Can I use a prepaid card if my main card is no longer valid? Yes. If you don’t have access to a credit card in time, you can use a prepaid Visa or Mastercard (for example, a Vanilla prepaid card) to make a one-time payment. These cards are available at many major retailers

Going on vacation, moving or simply taking a break? Put your Home Internet plan on pause with just a few clicks. Good to know: A mobile plan cannot be put on pause. The best solution if you don’t want to lose your rewards in our loyalty program is to adjust your plan to its strict minimum (by only keeping the provincial coverage for instance) for the time being. How to change my mobile plan Putting your Internet plan on pause Putting your Internet plan on pause is done directly in your Fizz account > My plans > Manage plan > Pause my plan. Price per pause: $10 (plus applicable taxes) Your Home Internet plan can be put on pause up to two (2) times every 12 months per calendar year, for a maximum of six (6) months each time. The first time you put on your plan on pause will therefore determine the dates of your 12-month period. Let's illustrate this with an example. If you pause your plan on February 3, 2025, your plan must be reactivated no later than 6 months later, on or before August 3. You will then be left with one (1) pause available until February 2nd of the following year. Keeping with that example, say you wish to schedule your second pause to start December 12, 2025. Because your 12 months end February 2nd, 2026, that second pause will end on that date even if its length will be less than 6 months. If you wish to keep your plan on pause beyond that date, you’ll need to submit a new pause to start February 3, 2026. You will then be left with one (1) pause until February 2nd, 2027. Good to know: You keep your Fizz Wi-Fi modem. You’ll need it when your
