  1. Currently, Clover Dining offers pre-auth for bar tabs, but if the pre-auth is greater than the order total, we have to pre-auth the card again to increment the pre-auth. Authorizations app has this functionality and better yet, once a card is pre-authorized, we can increment it without card present because the authorization is already saved, but it's no help because we need to manage out tabs and tables through Clover Dining.

  2. On the Customers summary and detail page on the web dashboard, add a card icon to the saved customer's record so merchants can quickly see which customers have a saved card on file. Currently merchants have to go in one by one in, click on an order, then view receipt, to determine if there is a card saved. Or they have to query through the Virtual Terminal.

  6. In the Clover Dining app, allow a partial payment to be applied to a tab and leave the tab open for more orders and have balance paid later.

    Use Case:
    A group has a tab open. One person from the group has to go and wants to pay either for specific items or a specific amount towards that tab before leaving. The rest of the group is staying and will continue to order drinks and food.
    Currently, if a payment is applied, you can no longer add items to a tab.
    This makes it very complicated to continue to serve…

  7. As you may know, Canada has abandoned pennies for all cash transactions.

    And pennies will be automatically rounded up for $.03 and more, and rounded down for $.02 or less.

    This has been universal among all POS systems and Banks in Canada, and I hope Clover can adapt to this quickly, otherwise it's going to cause reconciliation issues

  8. Are you guys working on ebt split payment options?
    we need a column in the price book/ inventory.exl that has ebt yes /no option

    then we need the system to understand when we choose EBT payment option it only allowa items that have the Y in the ebt column to be used and it should promept for next form of payment on remainer items left of the order.

    this is a must have feature if you want us to tell people we like clover.

  10. Speed up pre-authorization process. When you preauth you have to back out of the tab to start the next. Instead it could preauth then just save the tab and go back to the main bar and more section. There are lots of "taps" happening when trying to pay / authorize etc

  11. It would be nice if you can charge an order to a customer. We have multiple hospitals that charge transactions to their department. It seems to have the functionality to charge to a customer but it doesn't work. After being on the phone with Clover support for over an hour, it seems that it doesn't work and it also doesn't flow through on reporting.

    Hello, 

    Thanks for your feedback. Can you clarify that the following is what you're trying to do on device?

    1. Create an order
    2. Lookup a customer
    3. Use customer's card on file to pay for the order

    If so, this feature is currently under review. 

    Thanks,

  12. Taxable items cannot be purchased using EBT cards. Clover does allow the purchase of taxable items using EBT but should not. Merchant states this is a Federal law. Claims Costco POS will not allow it forcing the customer to pay with another form of payment.

  13. Net batch totals should reflect the net amount deposited into the bank. Gift card activations are included in the net batch total and need to be manually subtracted to match bank deposit.
    I propose that gift card activations not be included in the net batch total.

    Hello, 


    Thank you for your feedback. Before we provide further direction on this, can you please clarify if you mean activations or redemptions in the net batch total?

  15. We are trying to use Hosted Checkout so our clients have the ability to pay an invoice on-line at their convenience. The button on our website brings you to the "hosted checkout" which requires the user to in-put their name as well as their credit card info. HOWEVER, the name is not transmitted with the payment information. How are we to know who's paying us?????

  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.

  18. Currently when accepting EBT (Food Stamps), customers are only legally allowed to purchase food items using this method of payment.

    When ringing up their purchases and selecting EBT/Food, the POS system is currently allowing ALL items to be purchased on EBT instead of just the allowed, non-taxable food.

    Other POS systems at most stores have the ability to differentiate among approved food items and non-approved other items within a single transaction.

    Customer support says we need to ring up food as a separate transaction or manually total the food items up and do a manual split payment for the food…

  20. When adding custom payment type (chips/tickets redeemed for drinks) we can make this a non-revenue payment type and the money can come out of the bottom-line. Options for non-revenue payment type.
    a. Issue is when payments are taken in for chips/tickets, this is a revenue item. We have it set up with an option to be a non-revenue item. However when chips/tickets are swapped for drink sales it only counts as revenue, no option to make this a non-revenue payment type.
    b. Issue: Want net sales after everything is redeemed, and revenue counted when it comes in.
