Take your first card payment

A short checklist for running your first card payment at the front desk.

Written by Charles Lehman

Run through this checklist the first time you check a patient out with SynchPay. It takes about five minutes.

Before you start

Run the payment

  1. Check the patient out the way you normally would in your practice management system (PMS).

  2. If your terminal is integrated with your PMS, the SynchPay synchronizer opens on the right side of your screen with the payment amount and how it will be allocated.

  3. Complete the payment on the terminal.

  4. Open the patient's ledger in your PMS and confirm the payment posted the way you expect.

If your terminal isn't integrated with your PMS, start the payment from the portal instead. See Take an in-person card payment from the portal.

If the payment doesn't appear in your ledger, email [email protected] with the date, time, and amount.
