  1. 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

    Hello, 


    Thanks for your feedback. Can you please provide further details on what you would be looking for? We see value in notifications of refunds processed by other employees. Any additional context or requirements you may have would be great. 


    Thanks,

  3. An Item is taxed when a modifier is selected for an item. In California a sandwich or salad that has hot meat like chicken or bread is toasted is required the whole item to fully be taxed.

    For example, when I add modifier Toasted, Clover needs tax the item.

  4. The additional fees button adds the fee below the tax line--this is not correct. Any fee that is not voluntary is taxable in CA.

  5. Allow splitting of a guest check for Pick Up and Delivery orders. Clover is so traditional in the way of programming. The functionality exists for tables...cross it over to other ordering types. One person calls in and orders for 10 people or their department. FOCUS would allow me to split the check by item over multiple orders in one check. This function is CRITICAL!

  7. 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, 

    Clover Product


  8. 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.

  9. Native functionality to support the typical discounts retailers use, such as: (1) Buy One, Get One for x % off; (2) Bundled discounts; (3) Spend X discounts; (4) Quantity Discounts

    Retailers frequently offer promotional discounts to encourage upselling, promotion of new products, and to clear out old inventory. This is so common within the industry that Clover needs a much better solution to effectively serve retail merchants.

    Zaytech offers an app with some of this functionality, but it is buggy and doesn't work with variants

  10. 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.

  11. I am unable to reply & comments are closed on the reply question from [Kevin Nathan, Admin, Clover] to my original post with this same heading.
    My reply answer is that I do mean redemptions, even though my original post says activations. I meant to say redemptions. Text of original post and reply from [Kevin Nathan, Admin, Clover] follows.

    "Net batch totals should reflect the net amount deposited into the bank. Gift card activations <I meant redemptions> are included in the net batch total and need to be manually subtracted to match bank deposit.
    I propose that gift card activations…

  12. Have a feature that allows us to customize categories for when tips are appropriate and when they are not. For example, if someone orders from the dine in/restaurant category, have a feature available for tipping. If they order grocery items, they should not have an option to tip.

  15. When Enabled, Additional charges should automatically apply to every order unless removed by employee.

    As of now, additional charges need to manually be applied to every order

  16. Invoices from Virtual Terminal do not identify the employee who sent the invoice and payments on those invoices refer to generic "employee". Both should be able to be traced to the employee who created the invoice

  17. Customer places an order for $300 and leaves a deposit of $150 but later calls to change from one items to another but doesnt change significantly the price, when removing the changed item, it will have to be refunded. Then now the customer has to close out the order but now has to add more money to the $150 original deposit. They were very confused and no one don't want to have that when it comes to customers and their money or order. The deposit amount should apply to the total order and any changes made not affect the deposit

  18. Currently, Virtual Terminal has a wonderful invoicing feature. Two additional features could help with the invoicing and I have had requests for both:

    1) Invoices have a due date default of 1 week. Merchants would like more flexibility to set due dates such as the invoice being immediately due upon receiving the invoice or up to 30 days after receiving the invoice.

    2) Adding inventory items to invoices from clover inventory has been suggested and I have had many requests for this feature to be added to the invoicing in Virtual Terminal.

  20. 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.
