Clover Go
Overview

What this device is for.

Clover Go is an app and a small reader rather than a terminal. The app runs on an iOS or Android device you already own; the reader adds chip and contactless acceptance, including NFC wallets, and clips onto a dock if the device needs to sit on a counter.

It is the lightest way to start taking cards, and the right answer where a business has no fixed address to put a terminal in.

Not sure this is the one?

Say what the room is and what happens around the payment. That narrows it to two options faster than a specification sheet does.
