Managing payments efficiently is essential for a successful orthodontic practice. From treatment plan subscriptions to monthly installments and one-time charges, modern practices need flexible, secure, and easy-to-use payment solutions. BracketOS iPad Payments brings card-on-file, ACH, and subscription setup directly into your orthodontic practice management software (PMS), allowing your team to collect payments confidently—right from an iPad.
Built as part of the BracketOS AI-powered PMS, iPad Payments is designed specifically for orthodontic practices that rely on Mac computers and iPads to deliver a streamlined, patient-friendly financial experience.
What Is BracketOS iPad Payments?
BracketOS iPad Payments is a fully integrated payment solution that enables orthodontic practices to manage all patient financial interactions within a single platform.
