Canada: How to schedule an auto-debit from a care plan using DD/EFT

Auto-Debit System® (Frictionless Payments)

Canada: How to schedule an auto-debit from a care plan using DD/EFT

You can use the Auto-Debit Scheduler™ to set up auto-debits for new patients just like you would for an existing patient. However, if you are using the Care Plan Calculator® System, you should use the Care Plan Calculator & Auto-Debit Scheduler™ to process the auto-debits. The Care Plan Calculator & Auto-Debit Scheduler™ will let you charge the initial payment immediately and schedule the recurring auto-debits. Additionally, this will attach the plan to the auto-debit. You can also assign a Drip-Ed™ Campaign during the process (which requires membership with the Drip-Education® Email Marketing System).
