How to Get Cash Back on Your University of Guelph bill

What is University of Guelph?

Guelph asks you to allow at least 3 business days for an online banking payment to post to your student account, or 4 to 5 days if you pay through a credit union. The math on this page uses $520/month as an example tuition; your own amount will differ, and the cash back scales with it.

How to Get Cash Back on Your University of Guelph Tuition

1. Create your free Neobanc account: sign up at neobanc.com, takes about 2 minutes with instant verification.
2. Add University of Guelph as a payee: search "University of Guelph" in Bills. Banks and Neobanc list it as UNIVERSITY OF GUELPH - STUDENT FEES / Univ of Guelph - Student Fees.
3. Enter your student number: Your seven-digit University of Guelph student ID number, entered as the account number (not your bank account number); if your student ID has six digits, add a zero to the beginning, see below for exactly where to find it.
4. Pay with your preferred credit card: one-time or recurring. Your card earns its normal rewards; Neobanc adds cash back on top.
5. Earn cash back on every payment: cash back lands in your Neobanc balance. Withdraw it or put it toward next month's tuition.

Can I Pay University of Guelph With a Credit Card?

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 $520/month University of Guelph tuition, that's roughly $187 back per year between a 2% cash-back card and Neobanc, for the exact same tuition.

The Math on Your University of Guelph Tuition

On a $520/month tuition, a 2% cash-back card returns about $10.40/month, and Neobanc adds $5.20 on top, roughly $187 per year for switching how you pay, not what you pay.

How do I save the most on my University of Guelph tuition each month?

Change how you pay before what you pay. Paying by bank transfer or pre-authorized debit earns nothing; the same tuition through Neobanc with a cash-back card returns about $187 a year. A Late Payment Fee of $150.00 per occurrence is charged when the semester payment deadline is missed. A recurring Neobanc payment a few business days before the due date earns on every cycle and never runs late.
