Internet go down at the worst possible time? You're not alone in worrying about accepting payments without connectivity. Let's cover what Clover can and can't do offline.
Go to Setup > Payments > Offline Payments to enable offline processing. You'll need to set a maximum transaction amount.
Offline transactions aren't verified in real-time. You may accept cards that are declined, stolen, or over limit. Chargebacks become your responsibility.
Configure your offline maximum per transaction and total offline limit to minimize risk. Most merchants set $50-$100 maximum per transaction.
Offline transactions queue until connectivity returns. Ensure your device syncs daily to minimize outstanding transaction volume.
