  1. Currently can only resend an invoice once. This is not enough for alot of people who aren't organized. Need the ability to resend more than one time.

  2. Hello,

    I just switch from the Square Invoicing system. There are two things that we really need for the clover invoicing system. We need the ability to change the invoice due date. All of our payments are due upon delivery of the service or item. Right now it has a 1 week due date. This does not work for us.

  3. A few merchants have contacted me regarding the invoicing on the Virtual Terminal. They would like the ability to change the payment time frame on the emailed invoices. It currently only gives you the option of "pay within 7 days". They would like to be able to change it to "pay immediately" or to change the days out for payments (for example- "pay within 30 days"); or not have any payment time frames at all.

  4. 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. 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.

  6. 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.

  7. You should be able to revise customer payment information. We have a lot of customers that are on a monthly subscription with us. There are times when they have to get a new card and we need to be able to update that customer's information with the new card. OR a minor change like that CC expired and we need to be able to update the credit card exp date. Simple things like that would sure be useful rather than having to delete the entire customer and set them back up again.

    Also, seems silly that once we enter the…

  8. I recently changed over from the Square POS to Clover and I find the invoicing system lacking. I need to be able to do the following tasks:
    edit or update an invoice after it has been issued and need to be resent
    Need deposit payment capability on invoices such that I can assign payment milestones by % or by amount and dates that they are due. Then reminders need to be sent to the customer to pay it
    Need to be able to forward invoices to another email address
    Need to be able to record a payment for an invoice…

  11. Currently the invoice function of the VT arbitrarily sets a 7 day due date. Some of our customers need to pay COD (Now - within 24Hrs), while others may have 10 to 14 days. Please help making the due date parameter of this function editable. Thanks

  12. Is there a way for a merchant to enter notes in for a refund being issued? Currently they can only do notes for orders and sales, and any refund listed in the orders can only be noted after the fact.

    We will be adding the ability to enter a reason for a void, refund or order modification. You'll be able to set up a list of reasons for these different scenarios. Look for more details to be announced in the near future.

  14. It would be nice to be able to supress the business address on the invoice, as our business is in our home and I would like to not share my home address with all my customers. Is there a way to supress the address on the invoices?

  15. 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,

  16. 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.

  18. Merchant is requesting increase the dollar amount for maximum transaction amount. It is currently set at $99,999.99, but the merchant has transactions over $100k that he cannot split into two payments due to contracts with customers.

  19. When the customer-facing payment screen is active, the option for the customer to manually "type card" is not removable. We do not want customers manually typing their cards in order to be PCI compliant and prevent fraud!! Please enable this feature for the Clover Mini, we have just discovered today it is customizable on station devices but not the Mini!

  20. 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.
