  2. Allow customers to add a tip to their payment when making payment via the "Send Invoice" feature in Virtual Terminal. Your competitors have this feature and I would be leaving a lot of money on the table if I stayed with Clover instead of switching.

  3. I send a lot of invoices from the virtual terminal and usually all get paid right away but there should be a way to see if one wasn't paid and if I need to follow up with the customer. I think this would be a great add on so we are confident sending invoices knowing we have a confirmation it was paid or not.

  4. Please add the ability to process a refund through the Virtual Terminal. I have gotten this request from over 20 different health care practices (dentists, doctors, etc). Most doctor's office utilize a "back office billing" person that keys cards into the virtual terminal while the front desk uses the Clover Flex or Mini. However, if the back office has to issue a refund to a patient, then they must use the Flex or Mini and can't do it from their computer/virtual terminal. A lot of times the back office biller isn't even in the same building.

    Hello, 

    Thanks for your feedback.

    Our void/refund buttons will soon make it more clear which action is possible at that exact time.

    If merchants want to be able to void until the end of the day, then make sure they're enabled for gateway tipping and the void occurs before closeout.

    Thanks, 

    Clover Product

  8. Per Clover support, invoices have a 180 period before expiration. It would be really helpful to add the ability to send a notification/email to the customer if the invoice is still unpaid within that time. Even if it's just resending the same invoice link.

  11. When generating an invoice through virtual terminal, there needs to be a simple way to identify the invoices. Could be a new order type or just some label in the order list that says "invoice" or "virtual invoice."

  12. It is currently not possible/easy to refund a card-not-present credit card transaction that falls outside the scope of the transaction logs when the credit card is not present (eg: cancellled mailorder) and the two Clover minis are tethered without jumping through hoops.

    Hoop #1: Unplug the USB tether cable, then initiate the refund on the merchant-facing terminal. A Manual Input button will appear after pressing Issue Refund. Plug the USB tether cable back in.

    Hoop #2: Deactivate the tether app on the customer-facing terminal by pressing on the 4 corners of the screen. Unlock the customer-facing terminal. Initiate the refund…

  13. Merchant states that when he processed a sale on the Virtual Terminal he is able to view it on the dashboard. However when he launched the clover go app and goes into the transaction that was processed on VT it does not load. Advised merchant to use the dashboard and confirmed that he is able to see the transaction. Merchant requesting to view VT sales on the Clover go app instead of visiting the Clover dashboard.

  14. For the virtual terminal send invoice option, I would like to see a report for the invoices we sent out (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly timeframes). Also,
    I would like to see invoices paid in report form. It would help with determining if we collect more money by invoices vs over the counter and phone payments.

  15. • Recurring invoicing for existing customers
    • The ability to see all invoices and their payment status in one dashboard or filter.
    • The ability to select customers from a drop down menu when sending an invoice (to avoid having to manually type in the customer information every time you set up an invoice).
    • The customers tab does not merge the same customer under one customer line. Instead it repeats the same customer information repeatedly. It would be great to input customers into the platform and then select the customer to see all the invoices and payments received in…

  18. Once an invoice is paid, have an email notification sent to merchant to let them know it is paid. Otherwise they have to constantly check their batch/transactions. This would make it much easier to keep track of open invoices and reconcile.
