Helcim Virtual Terminal.
Accept payments on your computer by logging into your Helcim account from any workstation, tablet, or smartphone, and entering the payment details in the secure payment form. That’s accepting payments made easy.
Process Payments From Anywhere.
The Helcim Virtual Terminal is perfect for taking payments remotely or over the phone without needing a card reader. By logging into your Helcim account, you can either key-in the customer’s payment info manually or simply select the customer’s card stored in the card vault and run the payment right from your computer, tablet or phone.
Billing Repeat Customers is Fast & Easy.
Easily add your existing customers to orders and use the information in their customer profile for fast and easy billing. Or, set up a recurring payment plan to automatically bill your customers at defined intervals.
Better Security with the Card Vault.
Helcim tokenizes sensitive credit card information so that it never touches your system, meaning we take the risk of storing credit card numbers off your hands while still allowing you to process new payments whenever you need it.
Set Up Unlimited Users.
You are in control. User accounts are unlimited and have customizable permissions, so you can create as many as you need, however you need them, to suit the roles on your team.
Say Goodbye to PCI Compliance Fees.
Helcim’s entire platform is PCI compliant, which means it’s easy for you to keep your business secure and compliant too. You can quickly and easily generate your PCI compliance certificate at no additional cost.
- No PCI Fees
- No Non-Compliance Fees
- Stay Compliant & Secure
Fast Bank Deposits.
We help you increase your cash flow with deposits completed within two business days. Processed funds are deposited into your chosen bank account. There’s no need to switch banks or open a new account.
Protect your Business with Helcim Fraud Defender.
Reduce the risk of chargebacks with the built-in Helcim Fraud Defender. Every transaction is analyzed using an array of factors that generate a score informing you of the perceived level of risk, giving you the opportunity to decide whether you should complete or stop the sale. For added peace of mind, you can set Helcim Fraud Defender to automatically decline transactions with scores that make you uncomfortable.
