  1. I run a store that sells both package liquor and drinks by the glass (a bar).

    There needs to be an option to remove certain categories from a tip prompt subtotal.

    For example if a customer buys a $10 glass of wine to drink at the bar, and on the same order purchase a $20 18pack of beer to take home…the tip prompt of 20% should only reflect the glass of wine for $2 tip.

    Currently if this transaction happens at our store the 20% suggested tip would be based on the entire order cost of $30. This creates an…

  2. I need layaway and to be able to take trade-ins as partial payment toward the customers purchase. These are very important in my daily business. Will this be added any time soon?

  3. Invoice cannot be resent to a different email address in the event address was incorrect or outdated.

    - I have reach out to the Engineering Team At this time Clover does not have a way to change a wrong or outdated email address from the invoice. The merchant will have to manual cancel the invoice and create a new one. We are able to submit an enhancement request in regard to creating that feature in a later update.

  4. Please add feature to process force authorization transactions where the customers bank give a code that is added while processing the credit card payment. we have GSA orders payments to process and it requires the level 2 and sometimes the force authorization.

  5. Service Charge Printed on Merchant & Customer Receipts, I had a BC that called in and requested that the service charge be displayed on both receipts and not just the second printed copy. The first receipt displays total tax and the second receipt shows service charge, the BC is requesting this as to promote full transparency. Apparently the service charge was added from the tax and fees section.

  6. Verification of duplicate transaction.

    Please do away with this verification. It only confuses everyone and grinds service to a halt. What if the employee accidently presses the wrong button after the customer has left? It HAS happened. Why would there ever be a duplicate transaction? My Clover Flex doesn't make transactions and charge customer's cards on its own, does it?

    Sometimes I have a customer that needs to pay on separate transactions but with the same card. How can two transactions for two different totals be a duplicate? First purchase is for $24 and the other is for $8 yet…

    Hello,

    An enhancement to this Duplicate Payment Challenge will be available in a future release. In the future, the duplicate notification will only be presented if the same amount and card are used within a few seconds. 

    Thanks,

  7. 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.

  8. Currently the New Clover Go app displays the new sale screen by Items only. If you want to filter the items by a category you have the ability to select the "categories" option in the top left corner and it will filter out the items to only the items in that particular category.

    It would be very helpful if there was a setting option in the Clover Go app to change the sale screen display to a category view. Just as it was on the G1 app before. That way, instead of the merchant viewing all their items and then…

  9. Payment links should be able to categorize payments coming in. By it not categorizing the payments it makes all reporting functions in the POS null in void as all online payments made just get thrown into uncategorized and then cannot be changed. We run a business that is not a restaurant and the payment links are not a benefit as you loose track of all income if you take any online payments. It is also very inconvenient for our customers not to be able to make payments online with clover.

  10. Currently the ACH option when selected is not mobile friendly and looks poorly designed. It would be great if there were an option to disable this and only allow for card payment.

    Hello, 

    Thanks for your feedback. Are you referring to ACH acceptance within the Clover Hosted Checkout solution? If so, Merchants can already disable ACH within the Clover dashboard. 

    Other questions we have about this are whether you're requesting the ability to disable ACH only on mobile OR enhance the layout so that mobile ACH renders properly. 

    Your response would be appreciated.

    Thanks, 

    Clover Product

  11. 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.

  12. When a merchant adds a discount and it is for a large amount of line item like 90 @ $7.99 each the discount is rounded up or down to nearest $.50. The discount calculation should be for the exact discount amount. It creates problems with returns and for reconciling within Quickbooks.

  14. We just add the Clover Mini 2 and attached a Clover Mini Keypad. There is a toggle button that allows you to switch between sales and refunds. On the first day of using the new card reader, one of the users accidentally changed from sale to refund and processed 2 transaction before realizing the error.

    There is no way to disable the refund functionality on the Clover Mini Keypad (I spoke with the Clover Technical group that confirmed the refund feature could not be disabled). We like using the keypad to push the credit card amount to the Clover Mini.…

  15. Merchant complained about payment error messages being vague and misleading. The merchant received an error message advising "This type of card cannot be used on this terminal" which leads them to believe there is an issue with the terminal and they contacted Clover support. Clover support research concluded that the card was declined by the issuer and not by Clover. The merchant is requesting to have the error messages updated so that they accurately reflect the type of decline.

  18. REDISPLAY the order back to clover dining if the order was refunded as it has an open balance, Manager refunds a transaction of an employee due to incorrect tender type, the order that was paid to the incorrect tender type the order should return back to clover dining app as it has an open balance. Right now, that erroneous order of the employee shows in the orders app as “refunded” in red letter versus having it open in yellow letters because that order has an open balance. And have that order return back to clover dining as that table is…

  19. It would be nice for an option for an "employee discount" button in the discounts menu that will put all items at "item cost" for employees instead of us having to ring each item individually.

  20. 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…
