Charging for Medical Expenses

Enable your Stripe account to charge medical related expenses

With a few tweaks to your Stripe account, your business can be up and running charging HSA and FSA cards.

Health Savings Accounts (HSA)

cards require the cardholder to be enrolled in an eligible high-deductible health insurance plan (HDHP).

Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA)

cards do not have an insurance enrollment requirement, but the balance must be used each plan year.

How it works with Payment
Step 1

Reach out to Stripe

If your business needs to accept HSA or FSA cards, reach out to Stripe support to ensure that your account is properly configured to accept these card types.

Contact Stripe Support
HSA and FSA cards require that a business have a specifical classification, called a Merchant Category Code (MCC), so that card companies know that your products and services are directly related to a patient's medical needs.
