Signature no longer required as CVM
For Clover merchants in the US, Canada, and Argentina, signature verification is no longer required as a cardholder verification method (CVM). Clover merchants can still take payments with a cardholder’s signature; however, verify or reject signature is not required to complete the payment flow.
In the improved payment flow:
- Verify or reject signature screen is replaced with a signature screen that does not require merchant action.
- CVM in receipts displays “Signature” instead of “Signature Verified.”
Previous payment response |
cvmResult="Signature Verified" |
Customer signs and merchant verifies the signature. |
New payment response |
cvmResult="Signature" |
Customer signs and merchant is not required to verify the signature. |
Takeaway for developers
If your app depends on signature verification, you should change your app’s code to remove or change the dependency.
