Quick answer:
Halifax sends two tax bills a year: the first goes out in March and is due the last working day of April, and the second goes out in September and is due the last working day of October. The math on this page uses $340/month as an example property tax; your own amount will differ, and the cash back scales with it.
Use the Account ID# printed on your property tax bill; the invoice number cannot be used as the payee account. Enter it exactly as shown when adding the payee.

Yes, and it's the whole point. Most billers don't reward you for how you pay. Through Neobanc, your card earns its normal rewards and Neobanc adds 1% cash back on top. On a $340/month Halifax Regional Municipality property tax, that's roughly $122 back per year between a 2% cash-back card and Neobanc, for the exact same property tax.
On a $340/month property tax, a 2% cash-back card returns about $6.80/month, and Neobanc adds $3.40 on top, roughly $122 per year for switching how you pay, not what you pay.
Change how you pay before what you pay. Paying by bank transfer or Preauthorized payment plan (tax due date option or monthly or bi-weekly withdrawal option) earns nothing; the same property tax through Neobanc with a cash-back card returns about $122 a year. Interest is applied daily to all outstanding taxes at a rate of 15% per year. A recurring Neobanc payment a few business days before the due date earns on every cycle and never runs late.
