New Product Features in Clio
Make it easy to pay—and get paid—with the all new Clio Payments
Designed by Clio’s own legal technology experts, Clio Manage’s new online payments platform makes it easy for your clients to pay online using a credit card, debit card, or eCheck—without the need for a third-party payment processor.
Payments are automatically deposited directly into your trust or operating accounting and tracked in real-time so you and your integrated accounting platform are always up-to-date.
Make it easy and manageable for clients by offering flexible payment plans and by securely storing their payment details for faster recurring payments, in compliance with PCI standards.
