The short version

  • Only Halaxy has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: ChiroTouch chiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website; Halaxy the software being free does not mean the platform is cheap: a clinic taking most payments by card pays roughly 1.5 to 1.9 per cent plus a fixed fee on every transaction, which on a high volume practice comfortably exceeds what a flat AUD 60 per practitioner subscription would have cost.
  • They diverge on capability: ChiroTouch covers Practice Management, Halaxy covers No licence fee.
  • Prices and features above were last checked on 31 August 2026.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ChiroTouch

  • ChiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website
  • Three tiers exist (Start, Grow, Scale) but prices are not displayed
  • Company directs customers to book a demo or call 800.852.1771 for pricing details
  • Optional add-ons (CT Pay, CT Billing Suite, CT SmartFit) have unknown pricing
  • All ChiroTouch plans include AI features and unlimited support but cost comparison requires direct contact

Halaxy

  • The software being free does not mean the platform is cheap: a clinic taking most payments by card pays roughly 1.5 to 1.9 per cent plus a fixed fee on every transaction, which on a high volume practice comfortably exceeds what a flat AUD 60 per practitioner subscription would have cost.
  • Credits are prepaid and consumed by ordinary daily activity including SMS reminders and Medicare claims, so running out mid-week silently stops reminders going to patients, which shows up as no-shows rather than as an error message.
  • Features that competitors treat as standard, including two-way calendar sync, API access and a dedicated SMS number, are locked behind the credit subscription, so the headline free tier is thinner than it first appears.
  • Claiming, funding and payment integrations are deeply Australian, so practitioners in the UK, Canada or the United States get the diary and notes but very little of the automation that makes the product worth choosing.
  • Because the vendor earns on payment volume, its interests and yours diverge on card processing: switching to a cheaper acquirer breaks the automatic reconciliation that is the main operational reason to stay on the platform.

ChiroTouch Start is for efficient daily operations; ChiroTouch Grow (most popular) adds AI Scribe and multi-location support; ChiroTouch Scale adds AI Review Responder, AI Translator, and lead management.
