Clover® POS Equipment Placement Program – Terms Summary

With our Clover® POS Equipment Placement Program, eligible businesses can receive select Clover POS hardware at $0 upfront, including full countertop systems like the Clover Station. You only pay shipping.

This program allows you to use professional-grade Clover equipment with your merchant account—without the large initial hardware investment.

How the Program Works

  • The Clover POS device is provided at no cost

  • A one-time $99 shipping & handling fee applies to Clover Station Duo, Clover Station Solo, or Clover Mini

  • A one-time $35 shipping & handling fee applies to Clover Flex, Clover Compact, or Clover Go

  • The equipment is provided for use with your merchant processing account

  • The device remains the property of the processor during the program

  • Equipment must be returned if the merchant account is closed

  • Shipping & Handling fees are non-refundable after equipment has been shipped.

Equipment Use & Responsibilities

  • Equipment is intended for commercial business use only

  • Devices must be used exclusively with the supported merchant account

  • The merchant is responsible for:

    • Safeguarding equipment from loss, theft, or damage

    • Normal operating supplies (paper, accessories, peripherals, etc.)

    • Compliance with PCI-DSS and card network rules

Normal wear and tear is expected and acceptable.

If Service Is Discontinued or Terminated

If the merchant account is closed or terminated for any reason, the Clover POS equipment must be returned.

  • A pre-paid return shipping label will be emailed to the merchant

  • Equipment must be returned within ten (10) days of the return label being issued

  • All equipment, cables, power cords, and accessories must be included

  • Equipment must be returned in working condition, allowing for normal wear and tear

Failure to return the equipment within the required timeframe may result in a replacement fee based on the device model.

Important Notes

  • Equipment is not sold and does not transfer ownership

  • Replacement fees vary by model and can be up to the full retail value

  • Program availability is subject to approval and eligibility

  • Full terms are governed by the Merchant Agreement and Equipment Placement Addendum

Discounted Equipment & Service Commitment

In some cases, merchants may choose to purchase Clover POS equipment at a discounted upfront price rather than participate in the $0 Equipment Placement Program.

By accepting discounted pricing on hardware, the merchant agrees to maintain an active merchant processing account for a mutually agreed-upon service period.

If the merchant account is closed, terminated, or becomes inactive for any reason before the end of the agreed service period, we reserve the right to charge the difference between the discounted price paid and the full retail value of the equipment.

This ensures that the discounted hardware pricing—made possible through the processing relationship—is honored fairly.
