Introducing Clover Compact and 6 reasons you’ll love it

Often small things can pack a big punch. That’s true of Clover Compact, the newest device in Clover’s lineup. If you’re strapped for space, cash, or even time, Clover Compact has you covered.

Meet Clover Compact

Clover Compact is a powerful payment terminal that fits in small spaces and can outwork larger terminal devices. Whether you’re looking for a new payment processing device or replacing another starter device, Clover Compact loads the power your business needs into a compact device.

Designed especially for businesses who need a simple card terminal or Chip and PIN device to use on its own or as part of a larger payment processing system, Clover Compact offers a streamlined workstream and powerful features to help you manage multiple payment types and streamline operations. If you’re launching or running a quick-service restaurant (QSR), boutique, medical office, or a personal service business, like a salon or spa, Clover Compact could be the perfect fit for your business.

Why you’ll love the Clover Compact

The Clover Compact packs some great features into a cost- and space-efficient design. Here are six reasons businesses could benefit from–and love–the Clover Compact.

1. Easy payment and transaction management–at your fingertips

The Clover Compact offers fast payment processing that lets customers pay you just about any way they want–from cash and checks to debit and credit cards, from gift cards and over-the-phone payments cards to contactless payment options. Even better, customers can choose tipping ranges–as a fixed dollar amount, a percentage of the sale, or both. And, you can apply surcharging to help boost margins and reduce operational costs. What’s more, the Compact puts the most common tasks–like new sale, tips, refunds, gift cards, closeout, and more–right on the home screen, so you can access them with one tap.

2. Accessible experience in a sleek design

Designed for countertop usage, the Compact offers a space-efficient design and a simple, intuitive payment interface for all of your customers and employees. Its tactile pin pad interaction and touch screen interface, for example, are ADA compliant. Focused on payment processing, the Compact can be used as a standalone retail terminal or coupled with an existing POS to offer you a pint-sized payment powerhouse. It’s simple, intuitive design can also help you move customers through the sales transaction and payment process more quickly and efficiently. It even comes tether-ready, so you can easily connect it to another Compact or a full Clover POS system.

3. Gift card-ready

The global gift card market is expected to reach $3.09 trillion by 2030. There’s a good reason: Gift cards can help consumers shop–and give–where and how they like. A well-designed gift card program can help businesses engage more customers, drive brand loyalty, and boost profits. With a Clover Compact, you’ll have access to Clover Gift Cards with multiple gift card tools–from custom branding to managing card inventory–that can help you tap into the booming gift card market. Simply set up a gift card program with Clover, and enjoy taking gift cards as payment with the Compact.

4. More efficient business operations

Clover Compact offers lots of features to help boost your business efficiency. Reports, like closeout reports and more, can provide insight into your transaction volume and flow. And, to help you stay in-the-know on who’s accessing your payment system, Clover Compact lets you track and manage employee access, including a threshold for refunds and voided transactions. With multiple network connectivity options, like WiFi, LAN, and LTE connectivity, Clover Compact can keep your business up-and-running during inclement weather, internet outages, or even power outages. Less downtime can mean more sales.

What’s more, the Clover Compact puts our best services at your beck and call. Clover Rapid Deposit, for instance, can keep cash flowing when you need it most by transferring funds from your card sales instantly.
