  1. Hi - we use Clover for a daycare. We allow families 2 weeks of vacation. Would be ideal if I could edit the start date to bump it a week instead of having to delete and re-add them back into the plan. I have 13 customers in the one plan for the amount so I can't pause the whole plan. I need to just pause one family in that plan.

    Also would be phenomal to filter it alphabetically or by amount - our plans are by weekly and amount or bi-weekly and amount or monthly and amount. Instead of it…

  5. 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…

  6. On the Flex, there is a cancel button while the transaction is being processed only for contactless payments. This cancel button does not appear for any other transaction type such as EMV chip. Would like to have this cancel button removed for contactless payments.

    Hello,

    Thank you for your suggestion, but this request does not align with our current priorities. We expect the Cancel button to be present for all card-based payments on all devices. If it's not, please reply here or reach out to Clover support.

  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. The merchant would like the ability to accept dynamic currency without the use of hardware. No workaround available workaround at this time. Also, make the feature available for use with card holders other than Visa and Mastercard

    Hello,

    Thank you for your suggestion, but this request does not align with our current priorities. There are no supporting products that we could integrate into the VT to support this use-case at this time.

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

  10. Tipping option should appear after the self payment system on Clover mini just like Square payment device. Or we can set up the function as before or after the credit payment is done. Sometimes customers put their credit card on the screen and press the tip option on the screen and assume the payment process is done. Then we have to explain that it's not done and the customer become skeptical because they have used to square device. Can we uniform the process just like major POS system, please?

  13. For example, a restaurant has an order but wants to discount the food 15% but no the drinks. The only way to do it currently is going food item by food item and discount them and not the drinks!!

  16. On the flex device, if a CVV is input incorrectly the entire transaction must be restarted.

    Rather than retyping the entire credit card number again it would make sense to have a back button, and the clear button seems to be perfect for this. When the data is cleared from press 1, pressing clear a 2nd time should return you to the previous screen.

    Similarly, when a manual entry is declined it would be nice to have the data still in place for a second attempt but with the option to edit the price.

    Customers declined often pay a lesser…

  17. Bring back the Manual Card Entry button. Otherwise make the button optional so that we can turn it on for staff profiles as desired.

    I understand the type of fraud we are avoiding by not having the button customer facing. But it should be optional at the management level. In our location all sales are manual entry so this change has caused several additional steps per transaction and will require some light but unnecessary staff retraining, then will continue to waste time per transaction with new steps every single time.

    TLDR: Bring back manual card entry, but as an option…

    Hello,

    Thank you for your suggestion, but this request does not align with our current priorities. Our position is that customers must never have the option to type their own card. 

    If merchants require manual entry on your Flex, you can use the phone sale app. If using the Register app, you can use the Mail/Phone Order button when selecting a payment method.

  18. 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?

  19. 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)"

  20. 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%.
