Make payments with Eftco (NZ Clinics Only)
We have partnered with EFTCO to make it as seamless as possible for clinics to accept e-commerce payments to keep your business running. EFTCO’s e-commerce option INVOICEPAY is a super quick and easy way to get paid online. You don’t even need a website. Simply add a ‘Pay Now’ button to your invoice or email, text your clients the link or take payments over the phone. Access to a back-office portal to run reports, view payment history, process refunds and set up a subscription billing service to pay accounts. Want to recoup your cost of processing online? Add an automatic surcharge to all payments or just to some. You can pass on the full rate or some of it, the choice is yours.
