Processing: How to process a swiped payment for a walk-in

Last updated on 13 Sept, 2025

Sometimes people walk into the office needing to purchase products or pay for services that we haven't seen before. Although rare, we have a solution with the Simple Swiper™.

Getting Started:

From the top of the navigation menu → select the Simple Swper icon.

Step 1: Swipe their card using a Cash Practice USB card reader.

Step 2: When you swipe a credit/debit card with the Simple Swiper, it will automatically search your patient database for a matching account. If it finds one, it will list them in the Select Patient Account in order of likely match; with the most likely one preselected. 

For this example, you will select "Assign Walk-In Patient" from the drop-down menu → Type in the $ amount being charged → add an optional Comment.

Step 3: Click [Process Swiped Card for $XX.XX]

 

A receipt will be produced that you can print or have them digitally sign. All transactions assigned to "Assign Walk-In Patient" can be searched through your Payments Report at any time.
