  1. Hi there, Boise Art Glass We often process transactions that have three specific variables: Taxable items, non-taxable items, and a discount. Through many help calls, we discovered that the reason our books were never balancing was that the Clover algorithm does not take the total from the taxable items, minus the discount, then only apply that amount to the sales tax rate, then add the cost of the non-taxable item and the other totals. What it does is looks at the total, of both the taxable and non-taxable items, and discerns what percent of the total was discounted, turns that…

  3. Massachusetts now requires businesses to breakdown their net sales by credit and cash to pay their meals tax. Issue is the current break down is only for gross sales which includes taxes, fees, and credit tips. Can Clover update it where the breakdown will be for Net Sales only?

  4. On our new firework products, there are QR codes located next to barcodes. The clover system will scan the QR code. We suffered an estimated loss of $28k due to this issue. When the item is scanned it sound like the item was rung up when in fact it was not and only a very small brief error message at the bottom of the screen appears. We had no idea that clover unit could scan QR codes, and this issue was not discovered until after our season was closed. My suggestion is that clover needs to push a system wide…

  5. MasterCard only allow less than 1% of monthly transactions as fallback transactions threshold, otherwise $2,500/month penalty for the first 9 months of non-compliance and $5,000 for the next 9 months, and $10,000 and $20,000 thereafter.
    For Clover, since the merchant doesn't have a control over what cardholders do (in most cases), it's hard to manage the threshold of fallback transactions.
    Therefore, the merchant should have an option to disallow fallback transaction process (swipe after failed chip attempts) to avoid penalties from MasterCard. Some other applications like of PAX' has an option to disable fallback transaction processing. ATM machines also have…

  6. I work remotely while my husband is immunocompromised. We bill customers for open orders and currently the orders can only be marked paid from the terminal itself. There should be a way for admin staff to enter those payments through the dashboard, especially with so many people working remotely right now.

    Hello, 


    How are you billing, and collecting payment prior to marking the order as paid? We'd like this information as further details for our review. 


    Thanks,

  7. Virtual Terminal should be taking more seriously. It is pointless to offer Invoicing if it does not allows you to integrate existing inventory into it. Besides, it allows you to add a pointless notes that might help to remember what you sold, however, in the reporting-Revenue item sale you can see the transaction as uncategorized transaction, therefore, you can not see nets sales, COGS, and gross profit margin from that specific transaction which is vital for business. Yes, third invoicing parties such as InvoiceASAP and shopventory are completely useless as well since all products sold through those third parties platforms…

  10. On Android tablets, there is no way to stop the Clover Go app from going into landscape mode on the TIP/Signature screens. Merchant would like to ability to remain in portrait mode for the entire payment sequence. The Clover Go app ignores portrait mode lock in settings.

  12. After dealing with two different merchants, I strongly believe that when a transaction is rejected because of an AVS (Address Verification System) issue, then merchants should have a way to verify what the issue is. if such a way or reason is present, then it needs to become more explicitly obvious as it can be difficult to troubleshoot problems when one cannot find the exact reason code when calling technical support.

  13. Currently a deposit is removed from the total amount due via a split transaction. The tip is calculated on the remaining balance instead of the total bill. A separate split tab could be created to account for a prepaid deposit.

  14. Virtual Terminal does not have a search bar on the "Send Invoice" section, as it does under "Take Payment". Merchant would like this added to save time.

    Hello, 


    Can you please clarify which page within the Virtual terminal you're referring to, and the specific search bar? What do merchants search for in that case?

  18. 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. 

  19. My clients often choose a percentage without knowing what the dollar value of that equates to until after they press it. Every competitor I’ve looked in to and personally used has this feature except Clover. Example: ticket is $60, the tips should show “15% / $9” “20% / $12” “25% / $15” or something to that effect. Another example: On a $15 service, people might select 10% and then get embarrassed when they realize they only tipped me $1.50.
