CPACharge

CPACharge, offered by 8am, is a payment processing and billing platform designed for accounting firms. It addresses the administrative work of invoicing and collections by letting firms create one-time or recurring invoices, send secure payment links and reminders, and track invoice status and deposits in a single dashboard. Payment data can be synced with accounting and practice management software to reduce manual reconciliation.

The platform accepts credit and debit cards, eCheck, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Pay Later, both online and in person via tap-to-pay and chip insert devices. Features include custom payment pages, Quick Bill, scheduled payments, a custom reporting dashboard for reconciliation, and integrations with QuickBooks Online, Wolters Kluwer CCH Axcess, Qount, BQE CORE, Bill4Time, CCH iFirm, and others. Security includes PCI DSS Level 1-attested infrastructure, SOC 2 Type 2 attestation, tokenization, AES-256 encryption, and fraud detection.

CPACharge is packaged as a monthly, no-contract plan with unlimited users, PCI compliance, next-day payments, custom reporting, and all available integrations, plus unlimited phone support. Custom pricing is available for special processing or technical requirements. Processing fees apply per transaction by payment type, with card brand pass-through fees allocated monthly.
