  1. Many restaurants have the need for employees to "tip-out" other employees based off of their sales of food and non-alcoholic beverages during their shift. This is fairly common for small & medium size restaurants. For this reason, it would be great to have Sales Totals by Revenue Class print on the Employee report that comes from the Clover device (not the web)... since the employee would need to pull the report themselves and may not have access to a computer. I've had this request from a handful of restaurants.

  2. Have an employee section in the Clover invoice so the company can see who sends out the invoice. Also, let this employee be notified so they know when it is paid

  3. Would like Dine In versus Take Out to have different tip suggestion options. We configured our tip suggestions from 15% to 30%. This works well for full Dine In service, however asking 15% to 30% for Take Out is rather high when limited service was provided so customers often select No Tip / Skip on our Clover Flex.

    Would be excellent if we could additionally configure tip suggestions based upon order type to help generate more tips! So if order type is Take Out then we could set suggestions from 10% to 20%.

  4. Make remove the "skip/no thanks" option in the tips menu a customizable option. (in French "non merci")

    We can customize percentages, and the text for each, but it would be nice if it was make possible de remove the “skip” option althogether.

    The customize option is there if a client decides not to leave anything. Just don’t make it so easy to be a cheap tool.

    Thanks.

  5. Gratuity should only be based on the price of the product. When I enter a delivery charge it is included in my gratuity percentage because gratuity is a percent of the whole bill. There should be an option to add an additional fee for a delivery fee that is not taxed or included in gratuity but instead tacked onto the end total of the bill.

  6. It is crucial for merchants to have the ability to add a box that cardholders must check before they make a payment on invoices. The box can be used for terms of service/agreement, disclaimers, etc.

    IE Check here to agree to the terms of service as outlined in your contract. Terms can be found here <insert link>

  7. Bartenders are prompted to clock in when signing in. However, the system allows them to cancel/bypass clocking in. And eventhough they are not clocked in, the system still allows them to ring items on the register. When our bartenders close out they print a shift report to turn in with their banks. The shift report provides the sales information required to count down their registers. But ONLY THE SALES THEY PROCESSED WHILE CLOCKED IN. If they bypassed the clock in and rang items up, then remembered to clock in later, none of the sales processed before clocking in would show…

    Hello, 


    Thanks for your feedback. Can you please provide further details on what you would be looking for? We see value in notifications of refunds processed by other employees. Any additional context or requirements you may have would be great. 


    Thanks,

  9. Venues should be allowed to remove the "No Tip" option at their own discretion. A customer can still decide to not tip, they'll just need to do so through the "Custom" tip option.

    This is having such a negative impact on our venues that we're considering switching service providers. All major competitors would allow us to enact these kind of customizations.

  10. 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

    Hello, 


    This will be available in a future release.

  11. Allow the signature verification prompt to be turned off and it not disable tip entry on receipts. Currently, you have to have the signature verification on in order for the tip line to print on receipts with the clover station / mini bundle. Please make it to where the verification prompt can be off as servers and others keep hitting reject when they're in a hurry instead of verify which causes the transaction to be voided.

    Hello,

    Our recommendation is to set signature threshold settings to never require signature and tip location on paper or on tablet.

    Additionally, we will be removing the signature verification flow in the near term. 

    Thanks,

  12. 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.

  13. Customer places an order for $300 and leaves a deposit of $150 but later calls to change from one items to another but doesnt change significantly the price, when removing the changed item, it will have to be refunded. Then now the customer has to close out the order but now has to add more money to the $150 original deposit. They were very confused and no one don't want to have that when it comes to customers and their money or order. The deposit amount should apply to the total order and any changes made not affect the deposit

  15. Currently on clover duo, if you have it set to 'tip on screen' but you get a phone order and input card information manually (like a pizza shop) the system wont let you add tip because the customer is not present. whenever manual card info is input, the receipt should print on paper so driver can gather signature and tip on delivery.

    Hello, 


    Thanks for your feedback. This does seem like a good idea. 


    Are there specific modes of transactions that you would like to be notified about (e.g. On device, Ecommerce, Hosted Checkout, all)? 


    Also, any preference for how notifications are delivered (e.g. SMS, Email, push, all)?


    Would it be helpful to set up thresholds (over a specific amount) that trigger these alerts? 


    Thanks, 

    Clover Product

  18. The service charge should not be in the net sales at the top of the sales overview report that we print at the register to reconcile our register. Our expected deposit is off on the days we have a service charge because that money goes directly to the staff member who had the service charge on their ticket. Example: Expected Deposit -313.35. Register is -751.75 after physical count. Service Charge of -438.40. Add the two together equals -751.75. Should show on bottom line.

  19. 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.

  20. 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…
