💳 Autopay: Charge the Card on File Automatically

Client Billing

We're looking at autopay: automatically charging a client's card on file so collecting payment stops being a recurring task. Turn it on per client, and once a session is completed, the charge runs on its own and the receipt goes out without you touching anything.

You know the current version of this: a client owes for three sessions, you've drafted the follow-up message twice, and it's still sitting there. Autopay removes that conversation from the relationship entirely, which is better for you and honestly better for the client too.

You'd stay in control of the details: which clients are enrolled, when the charge triggers, and what happens if a card fails. Nothing gets charged that you didn't set up.

    This is the horse out the barn scenario. As per earlier request we need billing a time of booking. That solves everything you’re talking about in here and more. I started doing this years ago I literally have no challenge with no-shows anymore. My system issues the receipt but it has the date of the session on it so they can use it for their own insurance. I simply make it clear on my policy that 48 hours notice they can cancel with full refund which meets my regulatory bodies guidelines.

    Get that done you solve all of this.

    Autopay feature please!!!

    I am coming from an EHR that had autopay and it was so nice to have one less step to remember to do! Any sessions with a card on file would be auto charge at the close of day.

    Automatic charging

    For the clients who have a credit card on file, it should be automated, whether it's at the end of the session, once the note is done, or at the end of the working day. The client's card on file should be charged, and I should not have to do anything manually

    This is so important to me that I may have to switch to another EHR. Would love if this could happen.

    Please hurry with this one! I have had autopay working for so long, I am not going to switch all the way from SP to Upheal until this is done! Thank you!

    There are some clients that would easily opt for this option. We could also select some clients that would be required to be on this because of delayed or missed payments.
