Austin, TexasCenterbase and LawPay are excited to announce a new technology integration between the two platforms.

As leaders in web-based practice management software, Centerbase provides lawyers with all the flexibility and functionality of server-based practice management software solutions, but hosted fully in the cloud. By partnering with LawPay, the preferred online payment solution for the legal industry, Centerbase users can now collect client payments from any device at any time.

According to John Forbes, CEO and Founder of Centerbase, “Partnering with LawPay gives us the flexibility to simplify credit card transaction for firms that collect both bill payments and retainers from their clients. We are now the only billing system that can process both types of these card transactions through LawPay transparently to the user, and automatically allocate the funds in Centerbase to the appropriate accounts.”

Clients want a simple way to pay attorneys for their services, and nothing is easier than attaching a payment link for them to click immediately when they receive a bill. With simple online payments from LawPay, integrated seamlessly into Centerbase, attorneys can bill their clients and give them an instant way to pay. And Centerbase makes it even easier for attorneys to take online payments by letting firms run just one credit card transaction for both a trust and operating account payment, with Centerbase correctly separating deposits on the back end.

“We are so excited to partner with Centerbase,” said Amanda Huyck, director of partnerships for LawPay. “They truly understand the needs of lawyers and have built a thoughtful and customizable system that saves lawyers time and effort.”
