Running a Vet Practice is Hard. Your Payment Setup Shouldn’t Make It Harder
Everything your practice needs to run better financially — payment processing without the fees, direct PIMS integration,
marketing that drives new clients, and access to capital — from someone who has worked in a clinic and spent the last four
years building solutions specifically for veterinary practices.
Most Payment Advisors Have Never Set Foot in a Veterinary Clinic.
Your practice runs on a management system that touches everything. Your team manages patient care, estimates, discharges, and client relationships simultaneously — in a clinical environment where financial conversations occur during some of the hardest moments of a client’s day.
Most payment processors, marketing agencies, and lenders approach a veterinary practice the same way they would any small business. Generic solutions. Standard contracts. Advice that doesn’t account for the way a clinic operates. The result is a practice paying unnecessary processing fees, running a payment system that doesn’t talk to its PIMS, being invisible to pet owners searching online, and unable to access capital on terms that reflect veterinary cash flow.
You went into veterinary medicine to take care of animals. The infrastructure behind your
practice should take care of your business.

The Cost of Waiting
Every month the status quo costs you more than it looks like on the surface. The processors collecting fees you didn’t know you were paying. The clients who searched for you online and found a competitor. The capital sitting unavailable when you needed it. The gap is real — and it compounds.
Success
Zero processing fees. Payments posting automatically to the patient record. New pet owners finding your practice when they search. Capital available when your practice needs it. And a schedule that is fuller because the right clients are finding you.
Testimonials
She’s Worked in a Veterinary Clinic. She’s Run a Business. Now She Helps Veterinary Practices Do Both Better.
Samantha Strauss began her career as a Licensed Veterinary Technician, working on the floor of veterinary clinics — in the treatment area, assisting with procedures, delivering estimates in the moments that are already difficult, and navigating a clinical day where financial conversations don’t happen at a desk. They happen in an exam room.
She is also a small business owner. Her first serious encounter with the payment processing industry came not from the advisory side, but from the other side of the terminal — as an owner navigating fees, confusing contracts, and the gap between what processors promised and what they delivered. That experience pulled her into the payments world and led her to build Secure Stream.
Samantha holds a Certified Payments Professional (CPP) certification — one of the most rigorous credentials in the payment industry. When you work with Secure Stream, you’re working with Samantha directly. The person who understands your practice is the person who stays involved with it.
This isn’t borrowed insight. It comes from the floor of a clinic and the reality of running a business.
