Answers about PawZync platform overview and availability.

General Platform Questions
What is PawZync?
PawZync is Sri Lanka's pet-centric digital ecosystem that connects pet owners and veterinary clinics through digital health records, real-time booking, and structured clinic management tools. We provide a secure platform for managing pet health information and streamlining veterinary practice operations.
What is a Pet Digital Passport?
A Pet Digital Passport is a secure digital profile that stores your pet's lifelong medical history, including vaccinations, treatments, prescriptions, lab reports, allergies, behavioral notes, and visit records. It creates a tamper-proof health identity that stays with your pet for life and can be accessed securely from anywhere.
Is PawZync available across Sri Lanka?
Yes. PawZync is designed for pet owners and veterinary clinics islandwide. Whether you're in Colombo, Kandy, Galle, or any other location in Sri Lanka, you can access the platform with an internet connection. We're continuously expanding our network of partner clinics across the country.
Do I need to download an app?
PawZync is accessible through a secure web platform that works on smartphones, tablets, and computers. No download is required to get started. Future mobile app expansion may be introduced to enhance the user experience, but the web platform provides full functionality today.
How do I get started?
Pet owners can create a free account at pawzync.com/signup. Veterinary clinics can request onboarding through pawzync.com/clinic-onboarding. Both processes are straightforward and designed to get you started quickly with minimal setup required.

Pet Owner Questions

Answers about booking, digital passports, reminders, and account management.

Pet Owner Features & Usage
Is it free to create a pet owner account?
Yes. Account creation is completely free for pet owners. There are no hidden fees, setup costs, or monthly subscription requirements to maintain your account and Pet Digital Passport.
Are the first 3 vet bookings really free?
Yes. The first three veterinary bookings made through PawZync are completely free for pet owners. After the first three bookings, only a per-booking fee applies with no monthly subscription required.
How does online vet booking work?
You can view real-time clinic availability, select your preferred time slot, and confirm your appointment instantly within the platform. After booking, you'll receive confirmation details via email or SMS, and automated reminders before your appointment to reduce missed visits.
Can I store all my pet's medical records?
Yes. PawZync allows you to store comprehensive medical records including vaccinations, diagnoses, prescriptions, lab reports, X-rays, allergies, behavioral notes, and visit summaries. All records are organized chronologically within your pet's digital passport for easy access and sharing with veterinarians.
What if my clinic is not on PawZync?
You can manually upload prescriptions, vaccination certificates, lab reports, and treatment details to maintain a complete digital record. This ensures your pet's health history remains comprehensive even if your current clinic isn't using PawZync. You can also suggest your clinic join our network.
Can I manage multiple pets?
Yes. You can manage multiple pets under one secure account. Each pet has their own dedicated digital passport with separate medical records, vaccination schedules, medication reminders, and appointment histories, all accessible from your unified dashboard.
How do medication reminders work?
You can set customizable reminders for each medication based on prescribed intervals (daily, twice daily, weekly, etc.). You'll receive notifications via your preferred method before each dose is due, and you can mark doses as administered to track treatment progress and maintain accurate records.

Veterinary Clinic Questions

Answers about clinic software features, onboarding, and management capabilities.

Veterinary Clinic Software & Onboarding
Is PawZync free for veterinary clinics?
Yes. A comprehensive Free Tier is available for veterinary clinics with core features included at no cost. This includes appointment management, digital visit documentation, inventory management, financial reports, multi-branch support, staff role management, and limited AI tools.
What features are included in the Free Tier?
The Free Tier includes: real-time appointment management, digital visit documentation, Pet Digital Passport access (with consent), staff and role-based access control, multi-branch clinic support, inventory management system, financial reporting tools, and limited AI-assisted features. There are no hidden fees or setup costs.
How does clinic onboarding work?
Clinics contact PawZync through our onboarding form. After verification, our system administrator creates a clinic owner account and sends an invitation via email. The clinic owner then sets up branches, adds staff members, configures schedules, and begins operations. This structured process ensures professional setup and security.
Can clinics manage multiple branches?
Yes. One clinic owner can manage multiple locations under a centralized dashboard. Each branch can have independently configured working hours, staff assignments, and scheduling preferences while maintaining unified oversight and reporting across the entire network.
Is role-based staff access supported?
Yes. PawZync supports structured role-based access control with three main roles: Clinic Owner (full administrative access), Veterinarian (clinical documentation and patient care access), and Staff (limited operational access). Permissions are precisely defined to protect sensitive information while enabling efficient workflows.
How are appointments confirmed?
When a pet owner books an appointment through the platform, it appears instantly in your clinic dashboard. Automated confirmation notifications are sent to the pet owner immediately. You maintain full control to modify, reschedule, or cancel appointments as needed, with automatic notifications to pet owners about any changes.

Security & Privacy Questions

Answers about data ownership, access control, and security measures.

Data Security & Privacy
Who owns the pet's medical data?
Pet owners maintain full control and ownership of their pet's digital passport and medical records. PawZync provides the secure platform to store and manage this information, but you decide who can access your pet's health data and when.
Can clinics access records without permission?
No. Access is strictly consent-based and controlled by the pet owner. Clinics can only view a pet's medical records when the owner grants explicit permission, typically during an appointment or consultation. Owners can revoke access at any time.
Is the system secure?
Yes. PawZync uses enterprise-grade secure cloud infrastructure with encryption for data at rest and in transit. We implement structured access controls, audit trails, and privacy-first architecture to protect all health information. Regular security updates and monitoring ensure ongoing protection.
What is blockchain-backed integrity?
Certain critical records such as ownership transfers and vaccination history are supported by a blockchain-backed integrity layer. This technology creates tamper-proof verification of these important documents, enhancing authenticity and long-term trust without compromising privacy or usability.
How is my data protected?
Your data is protected through multiple layers of security: encryption during transmission and storage, strict access controls based on roles and permissions, regular security audits, secure cloud infrastructure with redundancy, and compliance with privacy best practices. We never sell or share your data with third parties.

Pricing Questions

Answers about costs, fees, and future pricing plans.

Pricing & Costs
Is there a monthly subscription for pet owners?
No. There is no monthly subscription required for pet owners. Account creation is free, the first three vet bookings are free, and after that only a per-booking fee applies with no recurring charges.
Are there hidden fees?
No. PawZync believes in complete pricing transparency. All costs are clearly displayed on our pricing page with no hidden fees, setup costs, or surprise charges. What you see is what you pay.
Will premium features be introduced?
Yes. Optional premium enhancements may be introduced in the future for clinics seeking advanced capabilities such as deeper AI analysis, expanded reporting dashboards, and operational automation tools. The comprehensive free tier will remain available for clinics that prefer it.
Do clinics pay per appointment?
No. Veterinary clinics do not pay per appointment. The Free Tier includes all core features at no cost, with no transaction fees or booking charges. Premium features (if introduced in the future) would be optional upgrades with transparent pricing.
Is there a contract?
No long-term contracts are required for the free tier. Pet owners pay only per booking after the first three free bookings. Clinics can use the free tier indefinitely without any commitment or cancellation fees.
