Feeling stuck in a contract or equipment lease? We'll cover up to $500 in processing credits to help with the switch. We'll even transfer your customer and card data from your previous processor for free, ensuring no disruptions to your payments.
Yes. Security isn't just a feature; it's a requirement. Helcim is fully HIPAA and PCI compliant, ensuring that client data and payment information are handled with the highest level of security. Best of all, we don't charge "compliance fees" or monthly subscriptions just to keep your data safe.
Absolutely. Whether your clients pay per session, purchase a package of sessions, or are on a recurring billing plan, Helcim makes it seamless. Our platform supports recurring billing, one-time payments, and payment plans, so you can match your billing to however your practice operates — without awkward workarounds.
Helcim integrates with popular practice management platforms like SimplePractice and Jane App. Our Payment Extension is a no-code browser extension that lets you use your Helcim merchant account with the software you already love — directly from your browser. No technical setup required.
Yes. Helcim's online invoicing and payment pages make it easy to collect payment for virtual sessions. Send a secure payment link before or after a session, and your client can pay from any device — keeping things simple and professional for both of you.
We designed Helcim to be intuitive, not intimidating. Because it integrates with your current software, it actually removes steps from your workflow rather than adding them. We provide full onboarding resources and a dedicated support team to ensure you feel confident from day one.
Chargebacks shouldn't be a mystery. Helcim provides a clear dashboard where you can see the status of every transaction. If a dispute arises, you'll have the digital paper trail and documentation needed to defend your practice's revenue, ensuring you aren't losing money behind the scenes.
Helcim is built for practices of all sizes — and solo practitioners often see the biggest benefit. With no monthly fees, no minimums, and interchange-plus pricing, you only pay for what you process. It's designed so your admin work doesn't scale faster than your revenue.
Not at all. We offer a free credit card data migration service, so your clients' saved payment methods transfer seamlessly. Your recurring billing schedules stay intact, and our support team walks you through every step to ensure zero disruption to your practice.
