Integrity Bankcard Partners with LegitScript to Give Healthcare Merchants a Path to Certification
Telehealth providers, med spas, pharmacies, and other regulated healthcare businesses can now access LegitScript's industry-recognized certification through Integrity Bankcard.
High-risk healthcare merchants face a gauntlet before they can process a single payment or run a single ad. Integrity Bankcard is changing that.
Enterprise partnership delivers exclusive discounts, priority processing, and dedicated support so healthcare businesses can start accepting payments and running ads sooner.
Why Certification Matters
Because of the complex and highly regulated nature of healthcare, many banks, e-commerce websites, and advertising and social media platforms require certification from a recognized organization like LegitScript to support a
merchant account or advertising account.
What LegitScript Certification Actually Unlocks
LegitScript is trusted by Visa, Mastercard, Google, Meta, and other major platforms as the standard for verifying that a healthcare merchant operates legally and transparently. When your business is LegitScript certified, you’re recognized by the gatekeepers of commerce as a compliant operator.
Why Certify Through Integrity Bankcard’s Enterprise Program
Get to Market Faster
The standard self-serve certification path puts you in a queue. As an Integrity Bankcard enterprise client, your application is picked up within two business days, which compresses the go-to-market timeline so you can start processing and advertising sooner.
Payment Processing and Advertising Access, Together
LegitScript certification satisfies both card brand requirements and advertising platform policies simultaneously. You don’t have to solve payment processing first and come back to advertising later. Day one certification is day one revenue.
Advertising Eligibility
Grow your business by promoting your company on the world’s largest online platforms. One of the major benefits of LegitScript Healthcare Merchant Certification is that it makes businesses eligible to advertise on platforms including Google, Meta, Microsoft (Bing), TikTok, Nextdoor, Yahoo, Netflix,
and LinkedIn.
Adherence to Credit Card Requirements
Because our certification program is also recognized by Visa and Mastercard, it enables you to build trust with payment processing partners, which safeguards your business from merchant account freezes, payment holds, and costly shutdowns. The result is smoother approvals, faster reinstatements, increased marketing reach and greater stability so you can focus on delivering services with confidence.
Visa and Mastercard recognize LegitScript certification as an approved organization to streamline the high-risk merchant registration process for pharmacies and telemedicine providers that process card-not-present transactions (MCCs 5122 and 5912).
Trust and Credibility
LegitScript Certification is a trusted verification program and signals legitimacy. But the merits go beyond that.
For more than 15 years, LegitScript’s Certification Program has provided a recognized seal of approval. Let patients and customers know that you operate transparently and legally by displaying the LegitScript seal on your website.
Regulatory Alignment
Healthcare is one of the most complex and highly regulated businesses in the world, making compliance a challenge. LegitScript’s experts track regulations and stay abreast of trends to support applicants in identifying and correcting inadvertent errors in compliance with applicable laws and regulations.
Better Pricing Than Going Direct
Certification through Integrity Bankcard’s enterprise program is significantly more economical than the self-serve path. These savings go back into your business rather than administrative overhead. Integrity’s bundled fees also include expedited service and hands-on support at no additional charge, helping streamline the process and reduce delays.
A Dedicated Expert, Not a Support Ticket
High-risk healthcare businesses are rarely straightforward. Multi-site operations, affiliate structures, and complex ownership models don’t fit neatly into a standard application. As an enterprise client, you’re assigned a dedicated LegitScript account manager who knows your business and helps you navigate the process if complications arise.
Ongoing Compliance, Not Just a One-Time Approval
Healthcare regulations change. Card brand policies evolve. Through Integrity Bankcard’s enterprise relationship, your certification is actively monitored after approval. You receive proactive alerts about regulatory changes, renewal reminders, and compliance flags before they become problems.
