“The ability to customize the system using the Clover App Market allows you to add specific functionality (like specialized loyalty programs or advanced inventory tracking) as your business grows.”

“It keeps everything organized for you and it is quick for payment processing, financial management, sales, and inventory management!”

Pros

“But there’s not so many options to organize the inventory or change settings for discounts and taxes, so sometimes we need to find workarounds or do it manually after the day.”
RF

Robert F.

Sales Representative

“We (our team) may need to explore this function as we might be missing something, but it feels like this process could be streamlined as adding customer details when you have a queue of customers feels like it takes perhaps a little longer than is comfortable for customers.”
EW

“We also like that you can record cash sales too, not just card sales, giving you a complete picture.”

Cons

“I would not recommend signing up with Clover POS. If you’re considering it, read the contract extremely carefully and make sure you fully understand the cancellation, equipment rental, and long-term fee obligations before you sign anything.”

Co-owner

“A duplicate charge caused by clover system during a service outage cannot be refunded—by me or by their support team.”
TL

Anything and everything

“It is not intuitive for example when searching for something if spacing or capitalization is off it will not find the item.”

Cons

“A customer database was only recently added and it is very simple without good reports, and without the ability to upload existing customer information.”

“It has been way too long that my legitimate business has not been able to withdraw MY money, or process credit card payments from my customers.”

Owner

“As of today, after many calls, the still have not fixed the issue so I feel I was lured in by promise of a working capital loan if I met certain requirements, then I did everything right and boom, bait and switch, no loan for zettle users.”
