KADEPAY FOR ACUPUNCTURISTS

Acupuncture booking software that keeps the treatment room calm.

Needles are in, the lights are low, and the last thing anyone wants is a payment conversation. KadePay takes appointment requests, gathers intake before the first treatment, sells courses of care, and lets patients pay a sliding-scale amount or a herb bill from their own phone.

Pay-As-You-Go starts at $0 per month. Usage and payment fees apply.

Sound familiar?

Calm treatment rooms, messy money in the background

Acupuncturists describe the same pressure points: patients who stop after two treatments, sliding-scale cash in an envelope, herbs billed by hand, and intake that eats into the first visit. KadePay is built for each one.

01

Patients who stop after two treatments

Acupuncture works over a course of care, but people pay $95 a visit, feel a little better and drift away before we see real change.

With KadePay

Offer acupuncture treatment packages, such as six treatments for $510, and record each one as it is used. Patients see their remaining treatments on your business page, and each visit is still requested on your calendar.

Packages and sessions
02

Sliding-scale payments collected in a jar or envelope

In our community room, patients choose $20 to $40 and drop cash in a box. Counting it at night never matches the sign-in sheet.

With KadePay

Print a Store Pay Direct QR for the community room. Each patient scans it, enters the amount they chose on the scale and pays by card or wallet, and staff confirm it in Transactions.

Ways to get paid
03

Herbal formulas billed separately from treatment

After the session I mix a two-week formula, then write a separate receipt or ask the patient to pay when they come back to pick it up.

With KadePay

Send a bill for the formula by text or email, and the patient pays from the link before pickup. Their profile keeps every treatment and formula payment together in one history.

04

Long intake forms filled out on the treatment table

My intake asks about sleep, digestion, stress and cycles. On paper it takes twenty minutes, and the first treatment starts late every time.

With KadePay

Send your acupuncture intake form as soon as you confirm the first appointment. Patients answer and sign it on their phone after signing in, and the responses are waiting on their profile.

Forms and signatures
05

Late cancellations on 90-minute initial visits

An initial visit blocks an hour and a half of my day. A same-morning cancellation leaves a hole I can rarely fill.

With KadePay

Include your acupuncture cancellation policy in the intake forms and ask for card authorization at the same time. Automatic appointment reminders go out beforehand, and if a late cancellation happens you charge the fee your signed policy describes.

Card on file

How it fits your week

A patient's course of care, from request to refill

  1. Request an initial treatment

    A new patient taps your booking link, chooses an initial 90-minute visit and requests a time. You confirm the requests that fit your treatment schedule.

  2. Intake before arrival

    They complete your health questionnaire, consent and cancellation policy on their phone, and authorize a card for future visits.

  3. A course of care, paid once

    After the first treatment, offer a six- or ten-treatment package. Each visit redeems one treatment, so nobody keeps count on paper.

  4. Add-ons and herbs

    Cupping, gua sha or a herbal formula can be billed by link after the visit, so the patient pays from home instead of at the counter.

  5. Gifts for family and friends

    Patients can buy gift cards for people they want to send your way, tracked in the same place as packages and visits.

KadePay for acupuncturists

Choosing acupuncture booking software for a private or community clinic

Acupuncture is usually a course of care, so the business side should support a series of visits rather than a single sale. Acupuncture treatment packages and fertility acupuncture packages give patients a clear commitment, and you record each treatment as it happens instead of tracking punch cards.

A community acupuncture sliding scale depends on dignity and speed. Patients choose their own amount, so a QR code they scan with their own phone keeps that choice private and the line short. Acupuncture clinic payments for private rooms, herbs, cupping and gua sha can each go out as a bill or a link.

Paperwork matters too. A detailed acupuncture intake form completed at home, signed together with your acupuncture cancellation policy, means the first visit starts on time and missed appointments are handled by policy rather than by an awkward call.

To accept credit cards in an acupuncture clinic, you do not need a counter terminal. Tap to Pay on a compatible phone works after payment setup, and links and QR codes cover the rest. Acupuncture gift cards round out the holidays, while charting and herbal prescribing stay in your clinical system.

CLEAR ANSWERS

Acupuncturists: your questions, answered.

What is the best acupuncture booking software for a small clinic?

A good fit handles requests, intake and the course of care together. KadePay lets patients request treatments, sign intake on their phone, buy treatment packages and pay sliding-scale amounts, herb bills or gift cards by card, wallet, bank transfer or recorded Venmo and Zelle.

How do community acupuncture clinics take sliding-scale payments?

Print a Store Pay Direct QR for the community room. Each patient scans it, enters the amount they chose from your posted scale, and pays on their own phone. Your staff confirm each payment in Transactions.

Can I sell a package for a course of acupuncture treatment?

Yes. Sell six or ten treatments in one payment, for example $510 for six, and record each treatment as it is used. Buying a package does not book visits, so patients still request each appointment and you confirm it.

Does KadePay store acupuncture charts or bill insurance?

No. KadePay handles payments, booking requests, forms, packages and business notes for acupuncture clinics, not clinical records or insurance claims. Keep tongue and pulse findings, point protocols and herbal formulas in your charting system.

How do I bill a patient for herbs after a treatment?

Create a bill with the formula amount and send it by text or email. The patient pays from the link with card, wallet or bank transfer, and the payment sits on their profile next to their visit history.

What does KadePay cost for an acupuncture practice?

Pay-As-You-Go is $0 per month for an acupuncturist getting started, and payment and usage fees apply. Team at $10 per month and Pro at $35 per month add more practitioners, recurring memberships and expiring links. Check the pricing page to compare plans.
