  1. An option to allow merchants to select whether the Tip line prints for large parties when the "Auto Gratuity" feature is selected. Currently, it is still showing the Tip line even when the extra Service Charge is assigned.

  2. When customer hit "SKIP" tip on a Clover mini device, we can't close out the batch. We have to disable the tip on device in order to enter zero for the tip then close out the batch. After that we have to enable to add the tip back on the device. Is there any way to eliminate this step? When customer hit "SKIP" on tip enabled device, the device should see that a "zero" tip and should not prevent the batch to be closed out.

  3. Would like to have a button for extra service charges on a Holiday - e.g Xmas or New Year's Day or a large group service - e.g a party or event. Sometimes some restaurant customers don't tip enough. This will incentivize our employees working during holidays & avoid absences then for an event of large group, for clean up service.

    In Australia, tipping is not required but restaurants automatically have a holiday charge if they remain open & provide service on a holiday. This should be applicable here in the US, too. However, restaurant owners have the prerogative to do…

  4. Would like to have the ability to re-order how the tip options are laid out during the check out process on Station DUOs or Station 2s + mini combos. Would like to move the Skip option to the bottom under all the other tip options.

    Hello,

    The Skip button on our tip screen is already at the bottom and for our new user interface, the No Tip button is also at the bottom. Can you please provide an image of this if you'd like to pursue this idea further?

    Best, 

    Clover Product

  5. Print tip suggestion on the bottom of the bill BEFORE payment, AND print tip suggestion on the bottom of Cash Receipts.

    Clover only prints tip suggestion for Credit Card payments.

  6. Previously on the Station 2018 model the customer would be prompted to select a tip amount after the sale had processed. On the Station DUO the tip prompt screen pops up on the customer facing device after the Merchant clicks "charge on connected device" before the transaction has actually processed. I have had multiple of my merchants complain about this workflow because customers selecting the tip amount and leave because they think they have paid. My merchants have unfortunately lost a couple of sales because of this. They are high volume Coffee shops so they are unable to monitor whether…

  7. Many restaurants have the need for employees to "tip-out" other employees based off of their sales of food and non-alcoholic beverages during their shift. This is fairly common for small & medium size restaurants. For this reason, it would be great to have Sales Totals by Revenue Class print on the Employee report that comes from the Clover device (not the web)... since the employee would need to pull the report themselves and may not have access to a computer. I've had this request from a handful of restaurants.

  8. It would be really helpful to allow us to make tipping more customizable. Stuff like changing the wording to match our business and adding a function to round up to a dollar amount since we've found that people like that option to not have so much change.

  9. Would like Dine In versus Take Out to have different tip suggestion options. We configured our tip suggestions from 15% to 30%. This works well for full Dine In service, however asking 15% to 30% for Take Out is rather high when limited service was provided so customers often select No Tip / Skip on our Clover Flex.

    Would be excellent if we could additionally configure tip suggestions based upon order type to help generate more tips! So if order type is Take Out then we could set suggestions from 10% to 20%.

  10. Make remove the "skip/no thanks" option in the tips menu a customizable option. (in French "non merci")

    We can customize percentages, and the text for each, but it would be nice if it was make possible de remove the “skip” option althogether.

    The customize option is there if a client decides not to leave anything. Just don’t make it so easy to be a cheap tool.

    Thanks.

  12. Gratuity should only be based on the price of the product. When I enter a delivery charge it is included in my gratuity percentage because gratuity is a percent of the whole bill. There should be an option to add an additional fee for a delivery fee that is not taxed or included in gratuity but instead tacked onto the end total of the bill.

  13. I work in a place where it is customary to tip out the back of house workers that make my job possible. When we had cash tips, this was very easy. However, now that we are a cashless facility, this is much more difficult. Is there a way to be able to direct a portion of my tips to the BoH workers when I close out for the night? This would be a very appreciated feature for my fellow employees who work so hard to make sure I can do my job effortlessly.

  14. Venues should be allowed to remove the "No Tip" option at their own discretion. A customer can still decide to not tip, they'll just need to do so through the "Custom" tip option.

    This is having such a negative impact on our venues that we're considering switching service providers. All major competitors would allow us to enact these kind of customizations.

  16. For example a $5.00 sale with a $1.00 tip. Currently the payment completion screen will show "($6.00) payment successful ($5.00 + Tip)." The merchant like this to be changed to actually show the tip amount so it should instead say "($6.00 payment successful ($5.00 + $1.00 Tip)"

    1. Need to modify receipt to include charges for “MDSE/services” under one line, and add another line for “TIP” followed by a line with the “TOTAL AMOUNT”. No Tax line at all.
    2. Need to add “No Refunds” under signature.

    Batch Totals need to be as follows:

    Sales
    Refunds

    Totals

    Tips
    Cash back
    Tax

  17. When customers would tip there would be percentage options. Now there is a dollar amount under neat the percentage. This is a new update that just came out and support says we cant remove it now. How can we get it back to just show the percentage only?

  18. ​Several POS companies including xxxx can require the wait staff employee to declare tips in order to open the option of clocking out. The business justification for this feature is that the IRS requires that wait staff employee tips must be declared at some point anyway, as part of the payroll process, by the employer. This shifts that responsibility to the wait staff employee so the employer/manager/accountant does not have to spend literally hours sifting through each individual's hours and sales to determine tips to declare for each shift. The employee needs to input that data easily at the end…

  19. Auto gratuities should be categorized as tips, not as service charges. For locations that pool tips this difference causes confusion when splitting the tips.
