  1. For payment method, for invoices we have clients who pay with checks. There needs to be a method for paying with checks just not as opposed to electronically.

  2. When I receive payment for an invoice that I sent through the virtual terminal in a form other than through Clover (cash, check, etc.) I would like the option to cancel the invoice without sending an automatic email to the customer. What happens currently is I will send an invoice via the virtual terminal, then I receive a check in the mail (for example) for the invoice, I cancel the request for payment I sent through the virtual terminal, and then the client receives an email saying their invoice was canceled. This frequently leads them to email me asking if…

  3. Currently it only asks for card and billing info. We have merchants needing the ability to have custom fields for their payment button. Examples could be: Invoice #, Account #, or a note.

  5. Merchant stated that he processes cards manually, some of the cards processed are international. stated his older machine gave numerous prompts, card number, cvv, address, zip code, purchase code ect.

    stated he would like to be prompted for as much verification as possible in order to lower the cost of the transaction fee and avoid the possible risk of a charge back dispute

    Hello,

    This will be available in a future release. It will be part of our initiative to make AVS a common experience across card-present and card-not-present acceptance.

    Thanks,

  7. A few merchants have contacted me regarding the invoicing on the Virtual Terminal. They would like the ability to change the payment time frame on the emailed invoices. It currently only gives you the option of "pay within 7 days". They would like to be able to change it to "pay immediately" or to change the days out for payments (for example- "pay within 30 days"); or not have any payment time frames at all.

  8. To stop a charge backs ! when we send the virtual terminal invoice That basic email you have created you need to protect us with letting the "PAYEE" put in as much information as possible, like card billing address and an acceptance button with Regs and or disclaimers somebox where they can check off the amount to be charge before pressing the authorize transaction button.
    As of now the person receiving the email only has to enter a card number. Anybody can have the card number is my point. That would help us. Greatly.

  9. We have a lot of saved recurring customers. I can no longer send them an email after we charge their card. We have to manually type it in every time. Before this last update, all we had to do was click send email to the customer because it was saved in our clover device.

    Now we have to ask over and over their email, or go to a different page, search customer's names and copy & paste or remember emails which are impossible. Very aggravating.

    For many customers this is inconvenient and they rather pay cash or check. So we…

  10. You should be able to revise customer payment information. We have a lot of customers that are on a monthly subscription with us. There are times when they have to get a new card and we need to be able to update that customer's information with the new card. OR a minor change like that CC expired and we need to be able to update the credit card exp date. Simple things like that would sure be useful rather than having to delete the entire customer and set them back up again.

    Also, seems silly that once we enter the…

  13. I love the QR ecommerce feature under payment links. The problem I have, is that I can't connect the QR code to a certain item in inventory. So when I run a report, the QR code item sold shows as "uncategorized". Could you please add a way to connect an inventory item to the QR code payment link function?

  14. Merchant is requesting increase the dollar amount for maximum transaction amount. It is currently set at $99,999.99, but the merchant has transactions over $100k that he cannot split into two payments due to contracts with customers.

  15. I recently changed over from the Square POS to Clover and I find the invoicing system lacking. I need to be able to do the following tasks:
    edit or update an invoice after it has been issued and need to be resent
    Need deposit payment capability on invoices such that I can assign payment milestones by % or by amount and dates that they are due. Then reminders need to be sent to the customer to pay it
    Need to be able to forward invoices to another email address
    Need to be able to record a payment for an invoice…

  16. Currently the invoice function of the VT arbitrarily sets a 7 day due date. Some of our customers need to pay COD (Now - within 24Hrs), while others may have 10 to 14 days. Please help making the due date parameter of this function editable. Thanks

  17. Allow the signature verification prompt to be turned off and it not disable tip entry on receipts. Currently, you have to have the signature verification on in order for the tip line to print on receipts with the clover station / mini bundle. Please make it to where the verification prompt can be off as servers and others keep hitting reject when they're in a hurry instead of verify which causes the transaction to be voided.

    Hello,

    Our recommendation is to set signature threshold settings to never require signature and tip location on paper or on tablet.

    Additionally, we will be removing the signature verification flow in the near term. 

    Thanks,

  18. After dealing with two different merchants, I strongly believe that when a transaction is rejected because of an AVS (Address Verification System) issue, then merchants should have a way to verify what the issue is. if such a way or reason is present, then it needs to become more explicitly obvious as it can be difficult to troubleshoot problems when one cannot find the exact reason code when calling technical support.

  19. Is there a way for a merchant to enter notes in for a refund being issued? Currently they can only do notes for orders and sales, and any refund listed in the orders can only be noted after the fact.

    We will be adding the ability to enter a reason for a void, refund or order modification. You'll be able to set up a list of reasons for these different scenarios. Look for more details to be announced in the near future.
