Clover devices are versatile and high-performing tools designed for businesses to handle transactions efficiently. Customers can choose to either purchase or lease these devices, each option featuring different pricing, connectivity, and warranty terms. This article compares the available options to help you decide what will work best for your business.
Integrated devices must be purchased or leased through DaySmart. Devices from other processors can not be integrated.
All of the devices have basic card reader functions:
Touch Display
Display Tipping
Receipt Printing Functionality
Tap, Chip, Swipe, Google & Apple Pay
All devices need a stable Password-protected WiFi network with WPA2-PSK security enabled, or better, to take payments.
💸Lease or outright purchase?
Lease / Monthly Payment Plan
You keep paying as long as you own the device.
If you need a replacement, your current plan is canceled, and you start a new plan for the new device. The prices don't go up; think of it like an unlimited warranty.
Outright Purchase
You buy the device with one payment, and it includes a one-year warranty.
After the warranty ends, if the device breaks, you’ll need to either buy a new one outright again or switch to a monthly payment plan.
See the pricing set for each device below!
What's available?
Clover Compact
Leasing price: $10 per month
Outright purchase: $225
The Compact is the most affordable device we offer and includes all the basic features necessary to process your payments. If you're tight on space, this device is the smallest Clover option available. Please note that the Compact must be plugged in at all times. If you usually have a weak WiFi signal, you can connect the device using an Ethernet cable!
Clover Flex 4
Leasing price: $20
Outright Purchase: $549
The Flex is a portable device. If you're looking for a mobile solution, the Flex is the right choice for you! This device features a standalone battery, allowing it to operate for hours without being plugged in. When you're on the go, you can connect to a hotspot instead of relying on a single location's WiFi. This device is slightly larger than the compact, allowing it to have a full touchscreen.
Clover Mini 3
Leasing price: $30
Outright purchases: $699
The Mini is a standalone machine designed for use at front desks or reception areas and must be plugged in at all times. Its large screen makes it easier for all cardholders to see and select their tip amounts. This device can be connected via an Ethernet cable to ensure a stable internet connection at all times.

📢 FAQ
Q: What if I only need a replacement charger
Q: What if I only need a replacement charger
If you're experiencing issues with the device not staying on, first check to ensure all cables are properly connected to the device and that other items powered by the same socket are functioning. If you have a Clover Flex or Compact, you can also use a USB Type-C cable to charge the device if you have one available.
Please note that we do not recommend keeping the Clover Flex on the cradle 24/7, as this can cause the battery to become dependent on the charger, since it learns that it will be plugged in all the time.
If you're still having issues with the device, we do offer replacement kits for all three devices. Just 💬 Contact Us and let us know you're having charging issues, along with the following information
