Resolve an ACH return without a re-presentment
When a customer's bank can't process an ACH payment, the payment doesn't get declined. Under NACHA rules, it comes back as a return, sometimes days or even months after it was first submitted, along with a return code that explains why. The Close Return method means that the customer can pay another way and you can close the return directly, using the paymentId of the return. Without re-presenting the payment. This is available through our API, to any integrator already handling bank transfer returns.

AI agent skills for API integration: built to fit your process, not ours
Payroc’s AI agent skills are text instructions that guide a developer’s own AI assistant through an integration with the Payroc API. We first planned to run them ourselves against codebases we’d never seen, then reversed that so developers run them in their own environment.

Expand healthcare payment options with HSA and FSA cards
Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) provide tax advantages for qualified medical expenses. For healthcare providers, pharmacies, and wellness businesses, accepting HSA and FSA payments gives customers a way to use these accounts to pay for eligible expenses. Our API supports HSA and FSA card payments and healthcare expense data, giving healthcare ISVs a way to support these payment methods directly in their integrations.

The Arazzo Specification: how Payroc cut AI integration tokens by 180x
When we tested the Arazzo Specification against our API in an internal hackathon, Anthropic's cheapest model, Haiku, went from failing to complete an integration to scoring 8 out of 9 in one shot, using 180th of the tokens a plain OpenAPI spec required. That result led us to build Arazzo workflows across our entire API.
