Bypass's point of sale system, powered by the Clover hardware, has become a preferred choice for many users due to the quality and design of the Clover hardware. Users have been able to smoothly transition to cashless transactions with the combination of Clover hardware and Bypass software. The Clover hardware, known for its reliable performance in credit card transactions, has gained popularity among merchants.

Clover's security features and efficiency have significantly improved payment system management, resulting in faster deliveries and increased attention from customers. Prior to adopting Clover, businesses had limited visibility into their transactions and lacked enhanced functionality and increased security. With the implementation of Clover as a payment terminal at retail locations, business owners now have access to secure credit card processing and back-office management functions.

Moreover, Clover has proven to be versatile in its applications. It serves as a POS system in various settings such as Country Markets & Cafes, family restaurants, outdoor markets, and online ordering for curbside pickup and global shipping. The system's user-friendly interface allows for easy order creation, saving customer details, and seamless transition to payment with the help of additional credit card reader and receipt printer.

Furthermore, Clover offers CRM features that allow businesses to add customers to email lists and send them information about new offerings and sales. This functionality helps businesses stay connected with their clientele and increase customer engagement.

In terms of payment processing services, BluePay plays a vital role as the back-end merchant processor for credit card and electronic check payments. It provides reliable and fast settlement of donations for non-profit organizations while offering reasonable fees and comprehensive reporting for auditing and reconciliation purposes. BluePay also serves as the payment gateway for point-of-sale, B2B, and B2C websites across various product divisions.

Overall, Clover, in conjunction with Bypass software, has proven to be a valuable asset for businesses seeking an affordable and effective POS system. From enhancing functionality and increasing security to providing reliable payment processing services, Clover has become a significant step forward for merchants. Users have praised the quality of the Clover hardware and its seamless integration with Bypass software, though some have expressed concerns about the support provided.

Poor Customer Service: Several reviewers have voiced their dissatisfaction with the customer service, suggesting that it needs improvement. Users have mentioned having to figure out many things on their own, indicating a lack of support or guidance from the customer service team.

Confusing App Interface: A number of users find the apps within the 'more tools' app unclear and difficult to understand. They struggle with navigating and comprehending these apps, which hinders their ability to utilize all available features effectively.

Users have made several recommendations for improving the Clover system based on their experiences. The three most common recommendations are:

  1. Improve stability and reliability by addressing occasional crashes and the need for reboots.
  2. Enhance printing functionality, especially for businesses where printing is a priority.
  3. Add more shortcuts and convenience features to streamline workflows and improve efficiency.

By addressing these recommendations, Clover can provide a more stable and reliable experience for users, enhance its printing functionality, and continue to offer convenience through additional shortcuts and convenience features.

We use Clover as a payment terminal at our 5 retail locations. It allows us to easily and securely process credit card transactions while having back-office management functions.

Prior to Clover, we were using a 10 key pin pad and a processor that gave us no back-office visibility of transactions, no employee controls, no enhanced functionality, and no increased security.
  • Ease of set up with one or multiple locations.
  • Ease of use from day to day functions to reporting to transaction investigations.
  • Simple and adaptable functionality with access to the tablet or the portal.
  • Intuitive back office management portal
Clover works well in retail but it is based on foodservice use. So, there is some functionality that can be confusing and features that have to be ignored. For example, it contains orders and refers to these in payment details. Retailers don't generally create orders and use the tablet for card transactions. On the other hand, these functions can be adapted so they are not used and not visible to employees.
  • Ease of use
  • Ease of set up
  • Adaptability
  • Quick and easy back office management
  • Reduced opportunities for fraud
  • Secured credit card transactions
  • Consistent experience for customers
  • PCI compliance, monitoring, and execution
We chose Clover without doing extensive research in other offerings. It seemed to meet all of our needs and was used extensively in other retailers. Other processing systems were limited in functions and back-office management.
