What payment processing do dental practices need?

Dental practices need front-desk terminals for copay and cash-pay collection, recurring billing for in-house dental membership plans, and financing integration for high-cost procedures. Beacon provides all of these with interchange-plus pricing.

How do dental membership plans work with payment processing?

Beacon recurring billing platform automates annual or monthly membership plan charges, handles failed payment retries, and sends automated renewal reminders - making in-house dental plans easy to manage without third-party membership software fees.

Is dental payment processing expensive?

Dental practices on flat-rate or tiered pricing often pay 2.6% to 3% or more effective rates. With Beacon interchange-plus pricing, most practices achieve 1.8% to 2.4% blended, saving $400 to $1,500 per month depending on volume.

Can dental patients use CareCredit or financing through Beacon?

Beacon integrates with patient financing platforms and can set up in-house payment plan billing directly through your merchant account, giving patients flexible payment options without requiring third-party financing approval.

The Problem

You're Likely Overpaying on Processing.

Flat-rate processors leave money on the table. Here's what we hear from cosmetic dentistry & dental membership plans practices every day.

High-Ticket Procedure Processing

Cosmetic cases ($3K–$15K+) need PCI compliance and fraud protection. Flat-rate processors don't optimize for high-value transactions.

In-House Membership Plan Billing

30%+ of cosmetic practices run membership plans ($500–$1,200/year)—but their processor doesn't support it.

Financing Integration Gaps

Patients finance treatments with CareCredit, Affirm, or internal plans. You need one processor handling all payment types.
