Sikka Software and Worldpay Partner to Offer Integrated and Smart Online Payment Service for Retail Healthcare Business

SAN JOSE, Calif., Oct. 10, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Sikka Software, a platform and marketplace that is revolutionizing the retail healthcare industry, and Worldpay, the global leader in payments, today announced a new agreement to provide an integrated and smart online payment solution to their clients in the United States and around the world.

The collaboration between these two companies will provide clients with a cost-effective and integrated payment solution powered by the combination of Worldpay's expertise in highly secure and reliable online payments and Sikka Software's market-leading technology platform that is compatible with over 96% of dental, veterinary, optometry, orthodontist, chiropractor, oral surgery and audiology markets.

As part of the agreement, both companies are joining forces to develop a secure payment application, which will be integrated with practices for both card present and card not present cases. For example, when a patient walks up to the front office to pay, the system will know exactly what treatment was performed, what the total receivable balance is and the patient portion following insurance adjustments. This vastly reduces errors and increases patient satisfaction. In addition, a patient or a guardian can login after hours and pay for treatment performed or planned from the convenience of their home using a secure browser.

Matt Downs, Head of Channel and Business Development at Worldpay, said:
We are extremely excited to be collaborating with Sikka on their robust set of solutions serving the health services market. Sikka's strong omni-channel capabilities combined with Worldpay's leading security and payments products is going to provide Sikka's practitioners and their clients with industry leading capabilities.

Vijay Sikka, CEO at Sikka Software, said:
Modern dental, veterinary, optometry, chiropractic, orthodontic and other practices need modern integrated payment solutions. We love using our mobile phones for payments and so why should our doctors offices not be fully integrated and conveniently accept payment? Sikka is an early leader in this industry with over 20,000 installations and working with Worldpay we hope to make it easier and more convenient for patients to pay and practices to accept payment.
