Payment processing built for dental
Most processors treat dental practices like any other merchant account. Summit doesn't. We built our entire operation around the way dental offices collect payments.
Why dental practices overpay
7 out of 10 patients pay by card. Most of those are credit cards — and every credit card transaction costs your practice $12 to $20 in fees. On $50,000 in monthly collections, that adds up to $1,500 or more going straight to your processor.
With Summit, those fees shift to the patient. Your practice keeps 100%.

What Summit does differently
Compliant Surcharging
Recover card processing fees legally. In 46 states, you can pass the credit card fee directly to patients who choose to pay by card. Summit handles all compliance and notification. You get the fees back.
PMS Integration
Payments post automatically to Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, DSN, and PracticeWorks. No manual entry. No double posting. No end-of-day reconciliation. Your front desk gets hours back every week.
Dental-First Support
Our team understands dental workflows. We speak your language. We know how your practice collects payments, where the friction is, and how to remove it. You get support built for dental, not retrofitted for dental.
The real difference: dollars recovered
Average dental practice card processing fees. Revenue that never reaches your bottom line.
With Summit: $60 flat fee + debit processing only. Credit card fees shift to patient.
Back in your practice every year. That stays on your bottom line.
Based on 3% effective rate, 40% debit mix at 1.75% + $0.25/trans, and $60/mo Summit fee. Your actual numbers are calculated from your statement.
