WHAT IS MPG?
When you offer a monthly wellness plan, there's always a question lurking in the back of your mind: what happens if a client just stops paying? You've already provided the services. You've built the plan. You've done everything right.
MPG™ — the Monthly Payment Guarantee — is baxtr's answer. When you enable it on your plan, baxtr commits to covering your monthly payments through the first year if a client defaults. Your clinic keeps receiving those payments. Every month. Without interruption.
The guarantee is funded by a one-time setup fee charged to your client at enrollment. Your practice takes on zero additional cost beyond the standard 5% baxtr fee.
In every scenario, your clinic gets paid.
Client pays on time
Monthly billing runs automatically
Client's card declines

HOW IT WORKS
HOW MPG™ WORKS
Three steps — and two of them happen without you doing anything.
At enrollment, a one-time Setup Fee — 15% of their annual commitment — is added to their first payment. This fee funds the guarantee entirely. It is charged to your client, not to you.
Example: A $50/month plan = $600 annual commitment. Setup Fee = $90. Client's first payment: $140. Every subsequent payment: $50.
The client pays monthly. Billing is automatic. You receive deposits as usual. baxtr sends automated reminders for any failed payments and attempts recovery before the guarantee is ever needed.
If payment recovery fails, the Monthly Payment Guarantee kicks in automatically. Your clinic continues receiving those monthly payments through the first year — fully funded by the setup fee already collected. You don't file a claim. You don't call anyone. It just happens.
MPG™ costs your practice nothing beyond your standard 5% baxtr fee. Zero additional exposure.

Less than two months of the plan. Most clients find it entirely reasonable when it's explained simply.
Nothing. The setup fee that funds the guarantee is collected from your client at enrollment. Once it's collected, baxtr holds it to cover any defaults that occur during the first year of that client's plan.

FAQs
Is MPG™ required, or optional?
Optional. You can run baxtr wellness plans without MPG™ enabled. But most practices turn it on — because the cost to them is zero and the peace of mind is real.
Does the Setup Fee put clients off?
In practice, rarely. When it's explained simply — "there's a one-time enrollment fee that helps us guarantee your plan" — most clients accept it without hesitation. It's less than two months of a typical plan.
What counts as a "default"?
A default is triggered when a client's payment fails and baxtr's automated recovery process is unable to collect after multiple attempts. The guarantee then activates automatically — no action required from your clinic.
What happens after the first year?
The guarantee covers the first 12 months of a client's plan. After that, baxtr's automated billing and reminders continue to handle payment recovery. We'll share data on default rates as our platform matures.
Your clients are spending more money on their furry friends than ever before – pet care spending is up 42% since 2019 – and the last thing you want is for someone to stop bringing Fluffy in for their checkup because it's too expensive.
