ScriptSafe Information

ScriptSafe is a pharmacy payment accreditation provider purpose-built for independent U.S. pharmacies and the acquirers who serve them. We accredit state-licensed pharmacies to accept card-not-present (CNP) transactions — including online orders, phone orders, and mail-order prescriptions. Our accreditation satisfies card network requirements for pharmacy merchants processing payments outside of a physical point-of-sale terminal, helping pharmacies stay compliant and helping acquirers onboard with confidence. Our process is designed specifically around pharmacy operations. Every application is reviewed across multiple compliance categories — including state licensure, federal database screening, ownership verification, and operational standards. Automated checks screen applicants against the OIG exclusions list, SAM.gov, the NPI registry, and FDA enforcement data before human review begins. Every review decision is documented with a full audit trail for regulatory inquiries or network audits. ScriptSafe also offers Concierge — a service that packages your accreditation data and delivers it directly to your payment processor's underwriting team. No duplicate paperwork, no starting over. Processor-specific forms are built into the application so pharmacies can complete everything in one place. Accreditation is valid for 12 months, with ongoing monitoring, license expiration alerts, and periodic re-verification to ensure pharmacies remain compliant beyond initial approval.
