  2. We are a non-profit that have donors wanting to give monthly. Clover does not have the option for them to enter this themself. This option should be for the donor/customer to enter their own card and choose to give monthly at time of the their first transactions. They would have to enter their donation each month!
    We have lost several donors because this was not an option. PLEASE MAKE THIS AVAILABLE FOR DONORS TO ENTER AND CHOOSE THIS OPTION WITH THIER AMOUNT.

  3. This would be so beneficial to those that run their businesses virtual only and do not take actual credit card numbers, adding protection and security for both parties. I am a former Stripe user and they make this super easy for merchants to set up and utilize. It also would be great if we could have payment links for recurring payments where the customer can fill out their cc information and have it saved in the system under their profile.

  5. I need the ability to edit the amount of the recurring payment for each customer.
    we're a tutoring center, and we charge each customer a monthly fee based on the number of sessions rendered. So although the amount is the same for most customers most of the year months, it happens that I have to charge a customer a different amount this month, then the customer will be back to the regular amount next month. There's no solution for this now, so I have to delete the recurring payment, charge the customer manually, and then recreate the recurring payment for…

  6. In the old system we used, our clients on recurring payment would sometimes pay their monthly draft in person before the draft occurred. We called that "COLLECT AT CLUB". That would cancel out their upcoming payment and mark them as having paid that month's draft. This does not exist in Clover but what could make this doable would be to allow the START DATE (or NEXT PAYMENT DATE) to be edited like the End Date is. Currently, the START DATE is set and permanent. In order to change the NEXT PAYMENT, a client must be deleted and re-set in the…

    Hello, 

    Thanks for reaching out. In order to assess the business opportunity here, can you please provide more details on your exact business use case?

  7. We have many recurring payments, in different dates. Instead of having to login every day to check, it would be nice to have a sales receipt sent via email to the the CLOVER account owner, and not only to the customer.

  9. It would be nice to be able to make or change recurring charges from the clover station. Currently it seems the only way to do that is from the clover back office web portal. Not all of my employees have web dashboard access.

  11. I think we should be able to change the date customers get charged. I run a wine club and sometimes my dates change for when I need to charge a customer. The only solution the customer service gave me was to end each individual persons subscription and then add them with the new date. Also if that is going to be the solution we should be able to have a way to do a mass add or delete to them.

  12. We have a wine club set up and we set it up with reoccurring payments in Clover. So we have 60+ users right now and we have to go through them all individually each month to see if the card was declined or not. It would be really helpful if we could receive an email notification when cards are declined in the reoccurring payment section.

    We want to promote it more, but this part of the process is so time consuming that if we scaled up to 100-150 people then we wouldn't be able to maintain the program b/c we…

  15. Most customers prefer to get communications and invoices sent via SMS. We would like Clover Dashboard - Virtual Terminal to send invoices to patients via SMS. Patients should be able to view the SMS, click on the payment link on the message and make the payment. This should trigger an email to the business notifying that payment has been made.

    Hello, 

    In an effort to better understand your merchant's request/pain-point, can you please clarify how they intend to utilize the QR code for this? Would it be allowing the user to hit a hosted checkout page with a variable amount? If so, that's available today.

    Thanks,

  17. This is KEY for any business using recurring payments. These should be able to be 'categorized' and added an 'item cost', just like normal inventory. When we run reports, we want to be able to see the Gross Profit from Recurring Payments., just like we would with selling any other item.

  18. Clover Dashboard for recurring memberships. It won't let you simply update the amount to a recurring contract/plan. You have to delete it entirely and re-setup. It would be nice if you could just update their recurring dollar amount and simply hit save.

  20. I am having to set them up with a different gateway like authorize.net, paytrace, eprocessing network, etc. instead of using Clover. Should be able to run their practice all in one place and Clover already has recurring billing.

    Hello, 


    Clover is not a HIPPA compliant solution. However, we're looking into supporting this feature in a HIPPA compliant manner.
