Clover Mini Review 2023

At first glance, Clover Mini seems like an ideal POS solution — it's portable, flexible, and functional. But there are some problems about the POS and how it's sold.

    This review will be strictly about the hardware, which seems a lot of people have missed out on the gist of the reviewers article. We have been using this machine as both a backup to our 3 Clover Stations, and we also have 3 units as customer facing “card reader/pin pads”. This setup though has been discontinued by Clover and no longer utilize the customer facing mini. In general, it is a solid setup. Significantly faster processing than the old Clover Station “swivel to customer” setup. One downside we have found is that we have had 2 units become nonfunctional due to a customers either dirty or chipped card lodging in the reader. Unfortunately the only solution was to purchase a new unit. This will be resolved when all cards are converted to “tap to pay” as we will then simply use the customer facing printer with screen.

    We bought out Clover mini about 4 years ago, we were told that we would have to upgrade and it would cost us another $800 because our Clover mini was now not compliant. Why would we want to spend another $800? Is there a way around that?

    This company is a big joke. I am a small business owner and I have had a clover mini for 2 months. Within those 2 months they have taken over $200 out of my account at will and with no explanation when I call them. Getting in touch with the right department is like pulling teeth. They are scam artists!!! I closed my account with them last week and today I am being charged for supplies. They sent me a shipping label for one box and I have two boxes. I have been on hold for over an hour for an explanation of these charges and still nothing. This is a headache. Square is the best option for small business owners. Clover is the worst!!!!

    This company is a complete joke please stay away from this we never post reviews but all what you read before this is complete true. They will hold your funds make promises and customer service are just terrible!!! Save yourself a headache and go somewhere else right now they holding $5700 of our funds at their risk department and no one is available to help out we would never recommend this company to any one bad bad experience! Hopefully we would not have to go farther and open a law case under this business. Save yourself a big headache!

    I find this to be a very well written article. I understood and was able to enjoy reading the information. I work for a medical practice and am searching for a system that will allow us to store our customers credit card information and pull it back up to bill them at the end of the month. I will keep searching.
