Credit Card Processing for Pretrial Monitoring

    Collect your pretrial caseload with billing, payments, and client records built for supervision work — not generic office software.

    Pretrial monitoring agencies supervise defendants released before trial, coordinating check-ins, testing, and device monitoring under court conditions. Caseloads turn over quickly as cases resolve, so agencies constantly onboard and offboard participants — and every intake or release is a chance for billing to slip through the cracks.

    Tether Pay's credit card processing turns every invoice into a secure online checkout, so pretrial services spend their time on supervision instead of paperwork.

    What pretrial services get with Tether Pay

    • Accept credit and debit cards, Cash App Pay, and ACH through Stripe's secure checkout
    • Processing fees are passed to the client, so your agency keeps its full price
    • Funds deposit directly to your agency's own bank account
    • Every payment reconciles automatically to the right client and invoice
    • PCI compliance is handled by Stripe — no card data ever touches your office

    Built for how pretrial services actually work

    Instead of chasing cash, money orders, and untracked app payments, Tether Pay addresses the problems pretrial services deal with every week: high caseload turnover means billing setup and teardown happens weekly; short, unpredictable supervision periods make manual invoicing error-prone; bond conditions vary per defendant, so fee schedules are rarely uniform; court dates move, and payment status needs to be current when they do. One system replaces the spreadsheet, the reminder calls, and the shoebox of receipts.
