Credit Card Processing for Chiropractors

A chiropractic office often takes payment at the front desk after an appointment and may collect for a package or recurring plan. We explain how in-person payments, stored cards and remote payments appear on a recent processing statement.

Credit card processing for chiropractors starts with what you already pay. Send one recent statement and a person reads your merchant account for chiropractors line by line. Free, with no obligation.

Short answer

Can a chiropractor get a merchant account?

Yes, most chiropractors can. The processor decides based on the business, the owner and processing history, so nobody can promise approval. Keep prepaid visit packages separate from copays and recurring plans charged to stored cards. Send one recent statement and we will review it free.

Chiropractors: common questions

Can a chiropractor qualify for a merchant account?

Most do. The processor decides approval based on the business, the owner and processing history. We help find a fit, but we cannot promise approval.

What should I send for the free statement review?

Send one recent monthly statement, every page, as a PDF or clear photos. Upload it on our contact page and a person will review it.

How are recurring patient charges handled?

A recurring billing setup charges a stored payment method on the agreed schedule. Its card-not-present and gateway charges should be visible in the statement review.

Can a patient pay a package deposit remotely?

Many virtual terminals and portals can accept a remote deposit. The payment is generally treated as card-not-present, so check its pricing separately.
