Vet practices bill for consultations, treatments and procedures, and many run monthly pet health plans. A payments app built for them, under your own brand, can collect plans by subscription and send treatment invoices as links, and you can offer it to independent practices across a region.

What vet practices need

  • Monthly pet health plans collected by subscription.
  • Invoices for treatments that owners can pay by link.
  • Deposits for planned procedures.
  • An account that shows what's been paid and what's owed.
