Clerri Integrates Patient Financing Through New Cherry Partnership

Practices can now present financing options and complete membership enrollment from the same screen—no switching tools and no added steps required.

AUSTIN, Texas, June 4, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Clerri, the dental industry's largest and most trusted membership platform, announced today a new partnership with Cherry, adding patient financing natively to the Clerri platform. The integration gives front office staff the ability to initiate a Cherry financing pre-approval directly from the patient's treatment plan view—the same screen where membership enrollment already takes place.

"This partnership reflects how we're thinking about Clerri as a platform, not a single product. Membership has always been our foundation, but the practices we serve need a unified surface for every financial conversation with a patient. Our integration with Cherry is the first of several innovations built around that idea," said Jacob Evans, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Clerri.

Cost is the most common reason patients delay or decline treatment. Clerri's integration with Cherry eliminates the friction at the exact moment it matters most: case presentation. With financing and membership both accessible from a single workflow, staff can walk a patient through their full range of options, including savings through a membership plan, flexible payment terms through Cherry, or both, all without leaving the platform or logging into a separate system.

One Workflow. Two Powerful Tools. Zero Extra Steps.

The Cherry integration is simple to set up and offers a streamlined three-step process that fits naturally into the existing Clerri experience:

1. Connect your API key to Clerri. From the Practice Portal, navigate to Product Settings › Connect Cherry. Paste the API key and the integration is live. Setup takes about two minutes.
2. Initiate a pre-approval from the treatment plan. From within the patient's treatment plan in the Clerri platform, staff can run a Cherry pre-approval on the spot. The result is a financing range valid for 60 days, returned in seconds.
3. Patient applies and gets financing. The patient completes a ~30-second application on their phone. Cherry manages the checkout process end to end. Once complete, the practice receives payment for the treatment.

Staff never leave the Clerri platform. There is nothing new to log into, no separate software to manage, and no additional training required to get up and running.

Availability and Setup

The Cherry integration is live today for Clerri customers using the Bridge and rolls out to all Clerri practices in the coming weeks. Practices new to Cherry complete a one-time approval with Cherry, then connect in about two minutes. Groups or practices new to Clerri can request a demo at clerri.com/get-started.
