Helpful Answers
What is Pay-By-Text?
Pay-By-Text is a secure and simple way for dental practices to collect outstanding balances with a text message. The practice sends a request to the patient, the patient is notified, and can pay instantly on their mobile device. Pearly then processes the payment and deposits the money directly into the dental practice's bank account.
Do you provide support?
Of course! You are assigned an A/R Success Manager who will help get you up and running (hint: it's super easy) and walk you through best-practices. Our Support Superheros are also available to help with any technology questions you may encounter. We win when you win.
How do I know when we get a payment?
You will be notified via email when a successful payment is processed. In the Pearly Portal, you can also view a history of all payments processed as well as outstanding balances. If our robust analytics are not enough, we're happy to help you pull a customized report.
How long does it take to get started?
Do you have 5 minutes? We can get you live. We created Pay-By-Text to be easy for dental practices and patients. Schedule a demo with us and we can get you up and running on the call. You will need your practice's direct deposit details handy so we can create a merchant account for you, in order to receive payouts from successful payments.
