Clover Mini
What is the Clover Mini?
You have seen Clover Mini devices in towns across America, in restaurants, retail stores, and beauty salons. Business owners love this terminal because of its size and flexibility to perform tasks their old credit card terminals could not.
Unlike a simple credit card terminal or a legacy POS system, this Clover system processes payments in less than three seconds. It offers real-time sales and employees reports, plus a customer engagement suite (rewards, promotions, and feedback). You can also customize the device with additional functionality such as menu and inventory management, modifiers and variants, discounts, pre-authorizations, and much more.
The Mini is the perfect POS solution for any business. In terms of size, it fits right in the middle of the Clover lineup, between the two larger Clover Stations and the portable Clover Flex.
Like both Clover Station machines, the Mini is a stationary device designed to process payments at your business location.

Clover Mini vs. Clover Station
The Clover Mini 3 is a compact payment terminal carrying all the functionality of its larger sibling Clover devices. The Mini 3 can accept PIN debit and EBT cards in addition to credit cards, just like the Station Pro. The Clover Station Solo and the Clover Go are the only two devices unable to accept PIN debit and EBT cards.
The Mini's antimicrobial corning touch screen measuring 7 inches, is smaller than the screen on both Clover Stations, which have 14-inch displays each. Because of its smaller footprint, it is compact enough to fit anywhere on the checkout counter or in the back of the dining room.
Unlike both Station devices, the Mini has access to all Clover plans Payment Plus, Register Lite, Register, Counter Service Restaurant, and Table Service Restaurant.
Clover Mini vs. Clover Flex
The main difference between Clover Mini 3 and Clover Flex 3 is that Mini is a countertop payment processing POS.
The Mini's purpose is to accept payments without leaving your place of business via Ethernet, WiFi, and 4G LTE connection.
Unlike the Flex 3, the Mini 3 offers four USB ports and connectivity to various peripheral accessories such as a cash drawer, weight scale, and barcode scanner. The Flex has a built-in barcode scanner, and it doesn't connect to a cash drawer or a weight scale. Both terminals have a built-in receipt printer (standard receipt paper). You can also place it on a swivel stand for easy operation.
How can Clover Mini 3 help your business?
The compact size and versatile connectivity are not the only reasons why you and your employees will love the Mini. You may have the need to use it as a simple credit card terminal to process EMV chip cards and NFC payments, such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. Or, you may choose to take advantage of the device's additional features, such as managing sales, customers, employees, and inventory.
But payments and reporting aren't the only features that make the Mini great. You'll appreciate the additional benefits that will enhance your business.
The built-in Loyalty Program will help increase your relevance by rewarding your most loyal and profitable customers and sending out promotions to bring back customers you haven't seen in a while. Plus, available Clover Gift Cards will bring in additional revenue.
As a Clover POS device, the Flex offers access to the Clover App Market, where you can customize the payment terminal even further.
Clover Mini 3 for your business
As a small business owner, you want to make sure your POS system offers it all: online ordering, contactless payments, and reliable connectivity. With a built-in 4G LTE sim card, this small terminal will ensure you never lose the ability to process payments. You'll never have to turn your customers away when your internet and WiFi are down. With the Mini, your establishment will always stay open.
