“Can a tech-enabled multi-state veterinary chain use unified digital infrastructure—payments, telehealth, and patient financing—to deliver a hospital-quality experience at walk-in convenience and scale?”
Founded in 2017 as a tech-forward veterinary care chain modeled on the CityMD urgent care concept, Bond Vet filled the gap between emergency animal hospitals and traditional primary care vets. After a $17M Series A in 2020, the company scaled rapidly along the East Coast and into the Midwest, doubling its clinic count in 2023 alone. Its embedded finance story is primarily as a payments adopter: migrating all 46+ clinics to Stripe for both online and in-person payments, with measurable revenue recovery from failed authorization recovery. On the consumer financing side, Bond Vet partners with CareCredit to offer veterinary-specific patient financing, keeping lending off its own balance sheet.
Bond Vet processes payments through Stripe.
