Get the visit paid before the leash is back on.

Pulse lets veterinary practices collect by text-to-pay at checkout, take surgery deposits over the phone, and offer payment plans for larger procedures — with card data never handled by your front desk.

The challenge

What’s slowing collection down.

A busy front desk slows checkout and ties up staff collecting cards.

Taking surgery deposits over the phone means staff reading card numbers aloud.

Emergency and large-procedure bills need payment plans your terminal can’t do.

How Pulse helps

Built for veterinary, on one secure platform.

Text-to-pay at checkout

Text a secure link so pet parents pay from their phone at pickup — no line at the desk.

Deposits by phone

Take surgery and boarding deposits over the phone by keypad — staff never see or key the card.

Payment plans for procedures

Split larger procedure balances into scheduled installments on a securely vaulted method.

Recurring wellness plans

Bill monthly wellness and preventive-care plans automatically.

AI reminders & follow-up

An AI agent confirms appointments, reminds about balances, and follows up post-visit.

No card at the front desk

PCI DSS Level 1 and tokenized — staff never key or store card numbers.

FAQ

Veterinary payments, answered.

How can a vet practice take payment by text?

At checkout, Pulse texts the client a secure link to their balance. They tap and pay on a tokenized page from their phone, so pickup is fast and the front desk isn’t handling cards.

Can we take surgery or boarding deposits over the phone securely?

Yes. Clients enter card details by keypad straight into the gateway; staff never see or key the number, keeping card data out of your PCI scope.

Does it support payment plans and wellness plans?

Yes. Larger procedure balances can be split into scheduled installments, and monthly wellness plans can be billed automatically on a securely vaulted method.

Is client card data secure?

Payments run on PCI DSS Level 1 rails with tokenized vaulting, so raw card numbers never touch your staff, systems, or recordings.

Will it work with our practice-management software?

Pulse is vendor-agnostic and layers onto the systems and phones you already use.
