Childcare

Just like the parents trust you to keep their children safe and secure, you expect the same from your payment processing company. We assist childcare providers in safely and securely accepting payments for their childcare services.

We offer automated payment collection and a virtual terminal that will let you automatically collect payments from the parents’ credit cards or checking accounts. Or, parents have the option of going online to pay their childcare bills. This allows childcare workers to focus on enriching children’s lives, rather than messing with paper checks and bank deposits.

Parents and providers alike enjoy the ease and simplicity of our payment solutions for daycares. We provide stand-alone terminals that allow parents to do a one-time payment or recurring payments. Our virtual terminal allows transactions to be scheduled online.
