What is app functional review

The functional review is a rigorous and important part of the Clover app approval process. It ensures that your app follows Clover platform rules and is designed to bring a great experience to merchants using the app. Once you submit your app to Clover, the approval status of your app is set to Under Review.

The Clover App Market team:

  • Installs your app to a production test merchant account and reviews it on the supported Clover devices or through the Clover Merchant Dashboard if it is a web app.
  • Reviews the app workflow video and description that you must submit at the time of approval.
