Use the Clover Android Payments API

The Clover Android Payments API offers an intent-based payments API for third-party applications running on Clover device to process payments. If you are building a point of sale (POS) system directly on a Clover device (or have previously developed an app with Payment Connector), the Clover Android Payments API will serve as a streamlined payment option on a variety of Clover device configuration, without the need to be device aware.

• Processing final and tip-adjustable payments

Operation coming soon:

• Tokenizing cards (saving a card on file) (only on supported devices)
