Customer pays using the Clover Flex

When running a typical SMB (small or medium-sized business), it pays to invest in a mobile point-of-sale (POS) system that’s reliable, flexible, and packed with features. Enter Clover Flex, a POS system that’s specifically designed to serve businesses on the go, in-store, or virtually anywhere. Let’s dive in.

Clover Flex Summary: A Comprehensive POS System

  • All-in-One POS Solution: The Clover Flex is a versatile POS device that combines payment processing, barcode scanner functionality, and an embedded printer into a single system.
  • Supports Multiple Payment Options: Businesses can securely accept chip cards, contactless payments, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay, giving customers the flexibility they expect.
  • Seamlessly Integrates With Clover Fleet: The Flex connects easily with existing Clover POS systems, syncing sales data across multiple Clover devices for smooth operations.
  • Portable Yet Powerful: Compact enough to fit in a pocket, but equipped with features like digital receipts, USB-C type charging, and secured cloud backup, making it ideal for the typical SMB.

Compact and Powerful

Lightweight and slightly heavier than full-size tablets, the Clover Flex slips into your workflow without weighing you down. Some users even refer to the Clover Flex Pocket variant for its ultra-compact charm. It works seamlessly with your computer or mobile device, offering both portability and ease of use.

Its design strikes a balance between mobility and durability, giving you confidence that this device will withstand the demands of a busy business day. Whether you’re carrying it to a trade show, using it tableside at a restaurant, or taking it to a farmer’s market, Clover Flex is built to perform.

Payments Made Effortless with Clover Flex

This all-in-one POS system delivers a comprehensive payment experience:

  • Accepts Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay
  • Reads chip cards and offers contactless payments via the built-in printer unit.
  • Users enter their PIN right on the device. It’s secure and user-friendly.

Clover Flex integrates into your existing Clover devices ecosystem, making it a reliable extension of your existing systems. If you already have multiple Clover devices connected, adding a Flex means smoother transactions across your entire operation.

Practical Features for Daily Business

Over the course of a business day, track real-time sales data, manage inventory, and quickly generate digital receipts. No extra hardware is required. The embedded printer ensures that receipts are printed on the spot, while the USB-C type charging port and optional charging cradle provide seamless power options.

If the device runs low on power, pop it into the charging cradle or use any power source with a USB-C cable. Wireless charging is also supported for businesses that want even more convenience. Want to keep multiple Clover devices connected? The Flex fits right in, as it is perfect for businesses using a Clover fleet.

Perfect for Modern SMBs

Whether you’re operating at a pop-up shop, taking orders tableside in a restaurant, or ringing up customers in retail, the mobile device mentality of Clover Flex shines.

  • Next-business-day shipping means you can start accepting payments almost immediately.
  • Secured cloud backup ensures your sales data stays safe. You’ll experience no lost reports, even if the device takes a tumble.
  • Printing capabilities and barcode scanner integration reduce manual errors while speeding up transactions.

Seamless Integration with Other Devices

Already using other Clover POS devices, such as Clover Station, Mini, or Go? The Flex fits right in, syncing experiences and data across your ecosystem. Your staff can float between multiple Clover devices without skipping a beat, all connected and empowered.

This ability to seamlessly integrate across a Clover fleet is especially valuable for businesses with multiple locations or fast-moving staff who need tools that are consistent, reliable, and always connected.
