  1. Currently when accepting EBT (Food Stamps), customers are only legally allowed to purchase food items using this method of payment.

    When ringing up their purchases and selecting EBT/Food, the POS system is currently allowing ALL items to be purchased on EBT instead of just the allowed, non-taxable food.

    Other POS systems at most stores have the ability to differentiate among approved food items and non-approved other items within a single transaction.

    Customer support says we need to ring up food as a separate transaction or manually total the food items up and do a manual split payment for the food…

  3. When adding custom payment type (chips/tickets redeemed for drinks) we can make this a non-revenue payment type and the money can come out of the bottom-line. Options for non-revenue payment type.
    a. Issue is when payments are taken in for chips/tickets, this is a revenue item. We have it set up with an option to be a non-revenue item. However when chips/tickets are swapped for drink sales it only counts as revenue, no option to make this a non-revenue payment type.
    b. Issue: Want net sales after everything is redeemed, and revenue counted when it comes in.

  5. Have a feature that allows us to customize categories for when tips are appropriate and when they are not. For example, if someone orders from the dine in/restaurant category, have a feature available for tipping. If they order grocery items, they should not have an option to tip.

  6. Merchants don't have an option to add bottle deposits that can calculate it automatically therefore the only choice there is, through adding Multiple Fees as "Bottle Deposit" under Taxes & Fees. But when that's done, the payment receipt shows "Taxes & Fees" and calculate both tax and fees together and shows one total, but if we can have the "Taxes" & "Fees" showing separate with the name of the "Fees" in this case "Bottle Deposit" that will help the merchant tremendously. Can this be implemented please? Thank you.

  7. The tip calculation does not include a prepaid deposit. This could easily be added to the payment screen as a "Split Transaction with a Prepaid Deposit". The tip calculation would then be based on the total bill instead of the value of the bill minus the prepaid deposit. There are other solutions as well. A payment type in the other section could be titled Prepaid Deposit and the tip calculation would use the entire bill amount.

  11. We use a variety of internal account numbers referencing other areas of our organization in addition to taking our usual cash/check/card.

    It would be a great asset if we could designate certain tenders as requiring a note field entry when selected, much like the "Check" tender does when you select it.

    Ideally it would show up on exports like the notes do on the checks, so long as it wasn't limited to 12 characters like the " invoice number" option is.

  12. When utilizing a template for inventory upload, currently the only way to add multiple tax rates & Fees is to add column under your product and add an additional line for just the additional tax rate.

    This makes things extremely complicated when trying to export the data and filter with Microsoft Excel.

    Suggestion - Make the Tax Rates field on the template comma delimited so you may add multiple tax rates and fees on one line. This should be a simple fix.

    I can provide screenshots if necessary.

  13. Ability to apply only one discount per order. Currently, Clover devices allow for employees/managers/admin to apply multiple discounts to the same order. There should also be a permission setting that allows business to select the roles that may apply multiple discounts.

  14. 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…

  17. Because Clover does not separate individual transactions, only total per payment method. If the total number does not match what the computer has, I need to know what the individual transactions were that Clover received (that is a request made). Meanwhile, they can be looked up under Transactions on the device, but whoever programmed that screen left inadequate room to display the date (left column), making the search for a specific transaction a nightmare. Meanhile, there's oodles of room for the center column, which displays the $ amount and also contains a randomly generated code that appears nowhere else. Let's…

  19. Remove the customer message "Remove Your Card" when customers insert their payment card in the payment device prior to the transaction being sent to the payment device. This causes confusion and wastes time when customers remove their card and have to reinsert. Currently, the customer receives the "Remove" message but if the card is left in the device the transaction just continues and completes.
