Menuthere vs Clover
Clover is Fiserv's point-of-sale system, and Clover Online Ordering is built into it: the restaurant gets an ordering website (or links its existing site), Scan to Order QR codes for tables, and online orders that print and fire straight to the Clover POS. It is for restaurants that buy a Clover POS, sold on Clover's own sites in the US, Canada, the UK and Australia. Clover charges no extra fee or commission for online ordering; the restaurant pays for Clover hardware, a monthly software plan (US restaurant bundles from $135 a month for 36 months, or $849 upfront plus $89.95 a month) and card-not-present processing on each online payment.
