Built for dental. Nothing else.
Summit Payments is a Denver-based payment processing company built exclusively for dental practices. We solve the processing fee problem that every other company ignores.
The story
Brendon Degner spent years in and around dental practices. He saw the same problem everywhere: thousands of dollars in processing fees leaving practices every single month, with no one offering a solution built specifically for how dentistry works.
The standard payment processors treat dental the same way they treat restaurants, retail, or any other business. They ignore the 72% credit card volume. They ignore the $200 to $500 average ticket size. They ignore the PMS integrations. They ignore the surcharging compliance rules. They ignore it all because it's easier to sell a generic solution than to build something dental-specific.
Brendon decided to build what the industry needed. Summit Payments was created to fix the processing fee problem in dentistry. Not to patch it. Not to half-solve it. To fix it completely.
From Denver, Colorado, Summit now serves 35+ active surcharging practices across 48 states, recovering $8.2M+ in processing fees that would have gone to other processors.
What we believe
Dental-first positioning
We do not serve restaurants, retail, salons, or any other industry. We serve dental practices exclusively. This specialization makes everything we do better. Our team understands your workflows. Your challenges are our challenges.
Compliance over shortcuts
Shortcuts cost practices money and create legal risk. We take compliance seriously. Every state rule, every card brand requirement, every disclosure is handled correctly. Your practice stays protected.
Dollar impact over rate talk
We don't get excited about rate decimals. We care about dollars recovered. Your processing fees should be measured in thousands recovered per year, not percentages improved. That's what we optimize for.
Fully integrated, not partial fixes
Surcharging alone is good. PMS integration alone is good. Together with proper compliance and dental support, they solve the problem completely. We don't sell features. We fix the problem.
