About Extension
CosmoLex combines legal practice management with accounting. Helcim enables secure payment processing while keeping financial workflows intact.
The Helcim Payment Extension is an independent productivity tool designed to help you work more efficiently across your favorite platforms. Please note that this extension is not a direct API integration and is not officially sponsored, authorized, or endorsed by CosmoLex or the third-party software providers it supports. Instead, it acts as a smart bridge in your browser, automating the manual entry of your Helcim payment data into other apps to save you time. We are proud to offer this innovative solution to give you more flexibility and choice in how you manage your business data!

Features
Accept in-person payments
Helcim allows CosmoLex users to take in-person card payments using Helcim’s card readers at a much affordable rate.
Lower your processing fees
Reduce your cost per transaction by using Helcim’s transparent interchange-plus pricing instead of CosmoLex's built-in payment processor. You also have the ability to pass on your processing fees for card-present transactions effectively removing the processing fees for the payments.
Smoother reconciliation
All Helcim transactions—online and in-person—sync to your Helcim dashboard for simple tracking and clearer reporting.
How it works with Helcim
The Helcim Payment Extension enables payments to be processed through Helcim while CosmoLex continues to manage matters, billing, and client records. Transactions sync into Helcim for reporting and deposits, while legal data remains in CosmoLex. Refunds or payment changes made outside CosmoLex may require manual updates. Invoice currency must match your Helcim account currency. This allows firms to use Helcim instead of CosmoLex’s default payment processor while keeping workflows intact.
