Payment processing for firms that bill on relationships
Retainer billing, branded invoicing, and recurring payment schedules — with interchange-plus pricing that saves more on every high-ticket transaction.
Built for professional services
Professional services firms — law offices, accounting practices, consultants, agencies — typically deal with larger invoices, recurring clients, and payment schedules that don't fit a standard retail checkout.
You need a system that handles retainer deposits, monthly billing cycles, and ad-hoc invoices without cobbling together three different tools. And when your average transaction is $500+, the pricing model matters a lot. Interchange-plus can save 25-40% compared to PayPal or Stripe on transactions that size.
Features for professional services
Branded invoicing
Send professional invoices with your logo, line items, and a secure pay link. Clients pay in two clicks.
Recurring billing and retainers
Charge monthly retainers or project installments automatically. Cards on file, scheduled billing, failed payment alerts.
Virtual terminal
Take payments over the phone during client calls. Key in the card, process the charge, send the receipt.
Trust account compatibility
For law firms that need separate trust and operating account deposits — Clearo can configure your payment flow to route funds appropriately.
