Virtual Terminal Payment Gateway for Treatment Centres

A virtual terminal payment gateway allows treatment-center staff to enter and process patient card payments through a secure online interface, without requiring a physical card reader for every transaction. Apt Financial’s solution supports treatment-center payment operations alongside ACH transfers, recurring billing, payment links, reporting, and other payment capabilities designed for behavioral health providers.

Yes. Apt Financial supports credit and debit card processing as well as ACH bank transfers for substance use disorder treatment centers and behavioral health providers. Offering both methods gives treatment centers flexibility when collecting patient responsibility amounts, program fees, deductibles, and recurring payments. ACH transactions may also provide lower transaction fees than credit card processing.

Yes. Recurring billing is available for ongoing treatment programs and aftercare services. Treatment centers can use automated payment schedules through Apt Financial’s card and ACH processing infrastructure. This can help organize repeated patient payments and reduce the need for staff to manually request each transaction while maintaining a clearer payment-management workflow.

Apt Financial’s service catalog identifies PCI DSS compliance as a platform feature. The payment solution also includes P2PE tokenization, which supports secure handling of payment data. Treatment centers should review their specific configuration and operational responsibilities with Apt Financial to understand how compliance features apply to their payment environment.

Yes. Pay-by-link functionality is included among Apt Financial’s payment capabilities. Payment links can provide treatment centers with another way to request card or other eligible payments without relying solely on an in-person terminal. The appropriate setup depends on the center’s payment workflow, patient communication process, and selected processing configuration.

Next-day settlement or funding is available for supported payment configurations identified in the service information. Card processing and ACH services each describe next-day settlement options. Availability may depend on the transaction type and approved account setup, so treatment centers should confirm the applicable funding arrangement during onboarding.

The service catalog states that no long-term contracts are required for certain Apt Financial payment solutions, including patient responsibility management and recurring billing. Contract terms can vary by selected services and account arrangement. Treatment centers should review the specific agreement, transaction pricing, and available features before beginning processing.

Yes. Multi-location support is listed as a competitive advantage of Apt Financial’s platform. This can help organizations coordinate payment activity across treatment-center locations while using dashboard reporting for attempted and successful transactions. The exact account structure and reporting configuration should be established during setup based on the organization’s operating model.
