Clover Flex (Photo: Business Wire) Clover Mini and Clover Flex provide businesses with custom hardware and software, plus girocard certification for the German market, as well as accessories, and customer support. Both products can accept a variety of payment options including PIN or signature entry, NFC, EMV and mag stripe transactions. They can be used as standalone devices or integrated with multiple Clover solutions for a connected commerce experience. "While powering businesses that range from coffee shops to major sports arenas, we've watched the Clover platform grw rapidly across the U.S. and the U.K.," commented Michael Neborak, Executive Vice President, Head of the EMEA region at First Data. "Today we are delighted to launch two of Clover's most popular solutions in Germany and Austria, making the next generation of payments technology available to our clients." Backed by the Clover platform, merchants using the devices can manage their businesses in real-time over an online backend portal that can be accessed from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. The portal allows the merchant to monitor transaction status, view receipts in an online archive, and make configuration changes remotely anytime, anywhere. Both Clover Mini and Clover Flex will also provide access to the Clover App Market. Clover's App Market features applications built by third-party developers, with more than 300 available in the U.S. App developers in Germany and Austria have the opportunity to submit their own merchant-facing apps to the Clover App Market for inclusion. Clover's platform also enables simple integration with numerous software providers, including independent software vendors, value-added resellers, software developers, and system integrators. Clover Mini Clover Mini comes in a small package but has the same power as a full size point-of-sale terminal, meaning business owners can access the same intuitive tools without compromising on counter space. Clover Mini provides merchants with:
