  1. We must have another grat button! I can't charge 18% on to go orders! We need more grat buttons! In my world of F&B 18% is standard, but parties of 20 or more we charge 20% and for to go's we charge 10 %! at least give us at least 1 more button! I have 2 restaurants and use clover in all and it's killing us!

  2. A typical merchant that does counter sales and delivery such as a pizza restaurant, wants to have the tip suggest at the counter but have the ability to do tip adjust after the auth for the delivery tickets. The CC is run before the delivery and they bring the receipt back with a tip on it. Currently the only option is 100% at the counter or 100% after the sale.

  3. Change the tips section to pop up after the card has been run and before the signature.

    Or at least give the option to change the order.

    People are trained to hand their cards to the person behind the register and if its a card that swipes I have to just awkardly hold on to their card until they figure out the tip page.

    It's not intuitive the way its currently set up

  5. If a card was ran on an incorrect bill and refund was issued (refund is the only way to void the credit card payment), a new order needs to be created and sent to the kitchen to process the card with the correct amount. There is no way to edit the order after the payment was refunded. Much needed in a restaurant environment - servers run cards on incorrect tables, customers realize their portion of the bill was split incorrectly, etc. Need to be able to void the payment without voiding the order. Once we rant a private party's card…

  6. Be able to make customer groups and automatically apply discounts that you set for each group

    ex: Label certain customers as "military" or "employee" and automatically give discount specified to each customer type/group

  8. Merchant would like the device to pre-auth the amount-- which it does-- but instead of charging the customer a separate amount, and then refunding them the pre-auth amount, he would like to have it just refund them the amount that was not used by the customer.

    Merchant explained that with the current way, it is causing his customers to call him thinking that they were double charged.

  9. I am the business owner for over 15 clover accounts as I work in corporate accounting/finance and the notifications go to me and not any hospital staff when a client makes a payment using the payment link. This makes no sense and the payment notification doesn't tell me which merchant account it was for. Our hospitals need to know when a client pays them. Often "business Owners" are not the receiption staff who actually enter and apply payments.

  11. Hi - I am the manager of a small to mid size retail store and we are really struggling with returns and exchanges on the Clover. Especially at the time of purchase, we aren't able do an exchange and issue a credit on the same transaction. If we could do that, our lives would be a lot easier. In addition- we would like for manual refunds to have an item associated to the dollar amount going back to customer for inventory reasons. Thank you

  13. Merchants should get a warning when either the zip code or the address number does not match with the AVS service. This message should happen on any phone order or manual transaction prior to completing the sale. The merchant should then have the opportunity to either accept or decline the transaction (void) because of the possibility of fraud. As it is now in Clover, the merchant may not catch the fact the AVS failed especially since it does not print on the receipt. As long as the option "Skip receipt screen & begin next transaction" is not checked, you will…

  14. Issuing manual refunds on Clover is near impossible with our business. If a customer comes in without a receipt or we're unable to pull up in orders, and we still want to let the customer exchange the item for another or issue store credit back onto gift card... there's no way to

    1) scan the item for manual refund - so system knows what item is coming back into inventory or assign it to a generic category for accounting purposes.
    2) refund a partial amount (say it was part of a bogo 1/2 off sale)

    Please help Clover!

    Hello,

    This will be available in a future release, known as Void and Refund Reasons, which the merchant can enable/disable. 

    Thanks, 
    Clover Product

  16. Merchant is requesting for a feature that allows them to make adjustments to an Order after it's been paid. After a customer pays for an Order and Discount is applied, if they want to return an Item or change their mind on couple of Items, there is no way to complete a partial refund for those items on the Orders app.

  17. merchants are complaining that now everytime they process a mastercard on their clover mini or flex the mastercard logo comes out on their screen and then a yellow checkmark appears and then a sound to approve the mastercard. this is delaying the process by 10 seconds its so frustrating as they are use to having a transaction get approved in less than 2 seconds, PLEASE REMOVE this new branding animation feature !!!

  20. When a customer pays with a gift card, there is no way for a customer to leave a tip. Even if there are still funds on the card, if the customer does not have cash, then the server does not get tipped.
