If you’re building a digital health or telemedicine brand, your payment processor should align with the complexity and compliance needs of your business. While Openloop supports infrastructure and healthcare staffing solutions, many providers are looking for more control, more flexibility, and deeper industry expertise when it comes to payments.

That’s where Corepay comes in.

We specialize in healthcare and high-risk merchant processing—with direct acquiring bank relationships across the U.S., UK, and EU, a proprietary gateway designed for healthcare workflows, and a dedicated chargeback prevention suite. Whether you’re prescribing GLP-1s, operating an online mental health clinic, or running a telehealth platform at scale, Corepay was built to support you.

With Corepay, you’ll have access to:

  • Fast onboarding—even for complex or high-risk verticals
  • Chargeback tools including CB-Alert, Visa RDR, CDRN, and Order Insight
  • LegitScript onboarding support (ideal for GLP-1, pharmacy, and teletherapy)
  • PCI and HIPAA-aware gateway routing

  • Full-stack infrastructure: merchant account + gateway + fraud tools

Why Healthcare Providers Are Exploring Corepay in 2025

We often hear from providers looking for more flexible and scalable options. Some are launching new verticals like subscription-based care or online pharmacies. Others are simply ready to evolve their payment stack.

The feedback is clear:

  • They want faster approvals.
  • They need real-time chargeback prevention.
  • They’re expanding to multiple states or countries.
  • They need more control over fraud and routing.

Corepay helps providers move quickly and compliantly—with solutions that scale.
