Here's why Alternative Payments has everything your business needs to make payments a breeze.


At Alternative Payments, we strive to bring you and your customers a seamless payment experience that helps improve collections and grow revenue. We are the leading, white-labeled payment solution that allows businesses to consolidate payments into one platform while providing their customers with flexible financing options. No longer do you need to rely on multiple payment providers, or collect payments manually, costing your operations and finance team hours a day. Additionally, we do not require changes to your existing billing or invoicing workflows (e.g., no major implementations).


Here's why you should today:

  1. Automations: Save time and improve collection rates with automation features such as auto-pay. You'll be able to set auto-pay rules to specific customers or your whole customer base, and charge them automatically based on the criteria outlined by you.

  2. Countless Integrations: We're integrated with the top PSA and accounting softwares to help you keep track of payment statuses in one place and save you 10+ hours per week of manual entry. Learn more about our integrations .

  3. Financing: Make your services more affordable than competitors, get paid upfront by us, enjoy the benefits of instant cash flow, and offer your customers that financial flexibility to pay their invoices over time with our feature.

  4. Transparent Pricing: We believe in absolute transparency. Pay a monthly subscription fee without any hidden feesβ€”it's really that simple! Learn more about our pricing .

  5. Dedicated Support: Enjoy the benefits of a dedicated account executive, customer success team, and support channel, so you can get help whenever you need it. We're committed to your success!
