Guide to Halaxy payment processing fees

Disclaimer: These rates are accurate as of the published date, but may be subject to change.

Every time you are paid through Halaxy Auto Payments, the transaction incurs a processing fee. You can choose to deduct them from payments made to you or have them charged to your practice credit card.

Passing processing fees ends from 1 October 2026

Following the Reserve Bank of Australia's changes to card payments, surcharging card payments are no longer permitted from 1 October 2026. Halaxy has removed the setting to pass processing fees on to patients. It is your responsibility to review your payment settings, whether to absorb the fee or adjusting your rates, and to notify your patients of any changes you make.

Note

Processing fees are charged only for successful transactions.
