About Extension
Zoho offers a wide suite of business applications including tools for invoicing, CRM, and project management. With the Helcim Payment Extension, you can accept payments on your Zoho Invoices using Helcim’s transparent interchange-plus pricing instead of Zoho’s default payment processor, helping you reduce payment fees while keeping your existing Zoho workflow unchanged.

Features
Accept in-person payments.
Helcim allows Zoho users to take in-person card payments using Helcim’s payment hardware—something Zoho's own payment tools do not support.
Lower your processing fees.
Save on every transaction with Helcim’s interchange-plus pricing, a clearer and often cheaper alternative to Zoho’s built-in payment rates.
Smoother reconciliation.
All Helcim transactions—online and in-person—sync to your Helcim dashboard for simple tracking and clearer reporting.
Secure tokenized payments.
Helcim’s PCI-compliant payment tools tokenize customer card data for safer, smoother payments across your Zoho ecosystem.
How it works with Helcim
Zoho Invoice with Helcim Payment Extension helps you accept card-present and card-not present Zoho payments at a lower cost. Zoho continues to manage your invoices, customers, and project workflows, while Helcim handles payment processing. Payments sync to your Helcim dashboard for reporting and reconciliation. Since this integration is payment-focused, invoice updates and customer profiles remain managed in Zoho Invoice. Refunds and external adjustments may require manual handling. Users also need to ensure that invoice currency matches your Helcim account currency to avoid syncing issues.
Note: The extension currently works with Zoho Invoicing, Zoho Payment Pages, and Zoho Books. If you're using other Zoho tools other than the ones mentioned, please note that these are not supported yet.
