Cut Your Clio Payment Processing Fees Without Leaving Clio

ShopConnect Pro is a free Chrome extension that lowers your Clio card processing fees 30 to 50 percent. You keep Clio exactly as it is. We route your payments past The Captive Processor, the marked up processor your software bundled in, and through a lower cost processor of your choice.

How it works on Clio

Clio has strict trust accounting rules. Our Clio integration knows the difference between operating and trust transactions, so every payment posts to the correct ledger inside Clio with no manual reclassification.

Clio payments: questions, answered

How does ShopConnect Pro lower Clio payment processing fees?

ShopConnect Pro is a free Chrome extension that routes your Clio card payments through a lower cost processor of your choice instead of the processor Clio bundled in. You keep every Clio screen and workflow. We just stop The Software Tax, the markup baked into the bundled rate, from billing you. Operators typically cut 30 to 50 percent off their effective rate.

Do I have to stop using Clio?

No, and that is the entire point. ShopConnect Pro is built to defeat The Re-Platform Threat, the idea that the only way to leave The Captive Processor is to leave your software. You keep Clio. Only the processor behind your payments changes.

Will payments still reconcile inside Clio?

Yes. Clio is a Tier 1 integration, which means full auto reconciliation. Every payment posts back to the originating Clio record the moment it settles, with the auth code, last four, and timestamp logged. No double entry.

What does Clio charge for payments today?

Clio Payments charges 2.95%. Your real cost is usually higher once you read The Statement Three, page three of your processing statement where the fees that do not add up live. Send us your last statement and we will publish your Buried Effective Rate for free.

Is ShopConnect Pro a Clio payments alternative?

Think of it as a Clio payments alternative that does not make you leave Clio. You run the same software. We swap the processor underneath for a lower cost one and reconcile the result back into Clio automatically. Same software. Different processor. Your call.
