Payment Processors
Canada
Founded in Calgary in 2006, Helcium is Canada's answer to Square. They offer competitive pricing and support in-person, online, invoice and recurring payments. Tap to pay on iPhone and Android requires a Helcim payment terminal (tap to pay on iPhone without additional hardware is available for US merchants only).
