  1. It is currently not possible/easy to refund a card-not-present credit card transaction that falls outside the scope of the transaction logs when the credit card is not present (eg: cancellled mailorder) and the two Clover minis are tethered without jumping through hoops.

    Hoop #1: Unplug the USB tether cable, then initiate the refund on the merchant-facing terminal. A Manual Input button will appear after pressing Issue Refund. Plug the USB tether cable back in.

    Hoop #2: Deactivate the tether app on the customer-facing terminal by pressing on the 4 corners of the screen. Unlock the customer-facing terminal. Initiate the refund…

  3. When an employee logs into the dashboard and then runs a transaction on the Virtual Terminal using a stored card the transaction gets marked as a generic employee tag instead of the name they are logged in as. This makes tracking the transactions impossible and what is the point of having credentials for employee's if they can use Virtual Terminal without tracking...This is called an enhanced feature but I think it is a glitch that should be fixed...

  4. Currently Debit Card refunds only give a cash back option or a backwards manually refund that doesn't show the refund of sales tax or what the refund was per inventory.. I received a new station in Nov 2019 and that seems to be the only option, which is really strange since my earlier system, which I had for 4 years, was able to refund debit cards just like a credit card. Please just let us refund debit cards as we did in the past. The new/current way doesn't have checks and balances with inventory and sales tax.. Makes, no sense!…

    Hello, 


    Clover supports refund of a debit card, either when the debit card was ran as Credit or Debit. Merchants who have been approved for Debit Refunds through Fiserv Risk review can also process direct Debit refunds through our solutions. 


    Thanks,

  8. Clover Dining needs an option to automatically add a gratuity to tables of set number of guests. This is a VERY common feature on restaurant POS systems and may end up losing potential clients.

    This feature needs to be able to be turned on and off (manager permission) as well.

  11. It is great that the dashboard was outfitted with a Virtual Terminal but it seems too easy for First Data to make the dashboard a full blown Payment Gateway. Give it the ability to Store Cards, set up Recurring Payments, Generate an API transaction key or HTML for a Pay Now button.

  12. While running a sale transaction, after the merchant copy receipt prints, the final step of completing the transaction, the Clover Flex screen will display the customer copy receipt prompt. The merchant is given a choice between print, email, and text. At the bottom of this screen, there are two options "Void Transaction" (in red) and "Done" (in green).

    The complaint is with the placement of the "Void Transaction" option right next to the "Done" option. There is almost no need for a "Void Transaction" option to be on this final screen. Rarely does a merchant need to immediately void a…

  14. Make the Void Report (and the Void Function) Useful!

    While I'm glad we finally have a report that logs all Voids, we still need major Void and Void report upgrades:
    1. Logging a void is helpful, but owners and managers need to know WHY something was voided. We need to be able to create and assign Void reasons or codes, ESPECIALLY for restaurants.
    2. The current VOID function is almost worthless, because it ONLY works immediately after a payment has been made. Virtually all major competing POS systems and credit card terminals allow voiding of items and payments up until…

    Clover Invoicing is a tool that is part of Virtual Terminal that allows you to send an email with a link requesting payment from a customer.

  17. When a transaction is cancelled or backed out of, the terminal should read "transaction cancelled" instead of "all done" as the message is the same after a sale is completed so merchants are complaining they wouldn't know if the cardholder backed out of the sale when passed the terminal without verifying the "transactions" app after each sale

    Virtual Terminal permissions can already be modified from employees>permissions

  19. Not sure if available but have not found this feature. Setup in clover credit card convenience fee that will be attached to the type of payment used. Clover should recognize when a customer is paying with Visa or MC, etc. to pop a message to customer "you will be charged a convenience fee of $xx% or $xxflat" amount according with the setup. This additional fee should be added to the total receipt amount authorized.
