In the U.S., pets are often considered part of the family, and the most dedicated veterinarians understand this bond, treating each animal as a cherished family member. However, visiting the vet is not always a joyous occasion; it can be fraught with stress, financial strain, and anxiety for pet owners. Not all pet owners have the luxury of a financial safety net for their pets’ healthcare costs, which places a unique responsibility on veterinarians to be sensitive to their client’s emotional and financial states when choosing payment processing solutions.

The bond between pet, owner, and veterinarian is vital, especially in times of routine care or emergencies. Therefore, having robust and user-friendly credit card processing systems is crucial in nurturing and sustaining this relationship.

Advantages of Credit Card Processing for Veterinary Clinics

Payment processing in a veterinary context should be straightforward for your clients, not a source of frustration. Yet, it’s a critical component of your business that can’t be ignored. Whether your clinic operates on a cash-only basis or has limitations in accepted card types, it’s essential to provide a seamless payment experience for pet owners seeking care for their animals.

In scenarios where pets require emergency attention, emotions run high. Even with the best care, a convoluted payment process can negatively impact the client’s experience.

Losing customers over subpar payment processing is something you want to avoid at all costs.

Here’s what you should look for in payment processing:

  • Increases your revenue by accepting most major credit cards
  • Facilitates convenience with mobile payment options like Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Android Pay
  • Offers versatile terminals for dipping, tapping, or swiping
  • Simplifies online transactions for those selling pet products or services online
  • Ensures an easy and hassle-free setup process

Payment systems that cater to your customers’ preferences ultimately benefit your clinic. With Moneybox, your veterinary practice can provide these payment conveniences, along with competitive pricing and additional services.

When you pair straightforward credit card processing with your outstanding veterinary care, your clinic will not only meet but exceed client expectations, establishing you as the premier veterinary service in your area.

Please note, this is NOT a complete list; Moneybox Merchant Services Inc. serves hundreds of additional mid and low risk industries, too. We do not have a full list of industries we can work with, instead we keep a list of business that we currently can not support. See our FAQ page for more info. If the opportunity is right we will of course try to be considerate.

Sorry, we are unable to provide merchant services for foreign or offshore businesses, or any company that is headquartered, or operates, outside of the USA. We are also unable to provide merchant services for any business whose owner does not have a valid SSN and US issued identification (driver’s license, US passport, etc). That said we are working to fix this issue and should have a solution early 2025.

Yes, your startup or new business can be approved by Moneybox Merchant Services for a merchant account. We love startups! While newer businesses without processing history sometimes encounter hurdles when it comes to approval, Moneybox has helped many brand new businesses get their start in payment processing.

A high-risk merchant account is designed for businesses deemed as “high-risk.” These types of businesses have a greater likelihood of chargebacks, fraud, or other financial risk factors. High-risk businesses require such accounts to be able to accept credit and debit card payments.

Various industries are considered high-risk because of their inherent attributes. Some examples include CBD (Cannabidiol) products, e-cigarettes, vape products, stun guns, credit repair services, multi-level marketing, adult products/services, pawnshops, dietary supplements, SEO services, and tech support.

No central authority determines a business’s high-risk categorization. Every payment processor or bank sets its own standards, often based on internal risk management criteria. Providers assess businesses based on several detailed information bits to ascertain risk levels.

Factors contributing to a high-risk business include being a new business, having poor credit records or low credit scores, operating in controversial or highly regulated industries, relying heavily on international sales, and previous placements on the MATCH list by payment processors.

High-risk merchant accounts differ from regular accounts in several ways such as having a longer application process, higher payment processing fees, cash reserve requirements, volume caps in credit card processing, higher chargeback fees, and additional requirements based on the business type.

A high-risk business should ensure it maintains healthy cash levels, tries to reduce chargebacks, discloses all relevant information during the application process, keeps its financial documents ready, and adheres to the guidelines set by its payment processor.

A high-risk business can find a suitable merchant services provider by researching and listing down payment processors that cater to their industry. Businesses should consider factors like the processors’ experience in their industry, processing fees, equipment provided, customer support, experience with businesses in the same industry, and support for diverse payment methods.

Moneybox Merchant Services Inc. may not cater to all high-risk businesses (e.g. CBD merchants). It offers an upfront underwriting process that identifies risk factors early, saving the merchant time and potential costs. However, if Moneybox cannot service a particular business, they may recommend a processor better suited to your needs.

Fast Service, Unmatched Customer Service

“We changed our website and needed to get a new processor fast. Their prompt service and secure system are unmatched. We have been using their services for a while now and have never had any issues. In fact, they even require us to call them once a year to ensure our system is up to date. As our business continues to grow, we are excited to explore the many options that Moneybox has to offer, including a point-of-sale. They have been our go-to solution for everything, from terminal issues to website processing security. We couldn’t be happier with their exceptional service.”

Simply Amazing Technical Support

We were starting a new business and needed a reliable company to process our credit card payments. After some research, we found Host Merchant Services and began working with them in January 2021. The staff has been very helpful, and we’ve had positive experiences with both the Compliance team and technicians. We process payments in person using a terminal, and the service and machine have been excellent with no issues.
