Inquiry About API for Connecting Company Portal with Clover Terminals

Dear Clover Community,

I hope this message finds you well. We are a company that utilizes Clover terminals for our business operations . As we strive to enhance our internal processes and provide seamless experiences for our customers, we are interested in exploring the possibility of integrating our company portal with Clover terminals.

We are reaching out to the Clover Community to inquire if there exists an API (Application Programming Interface) that would allow us to establish a connection between our company portal and Clover terminals. By integrating these systems, we aim to streamline our operations and enable a more cohesive experience for our customers during transactions.

If any members of the Clover Community are familiar with such an API or have successfully implemented a similar integration, we would greatly appreciate your insights and guidance. Additionally, if there are any resources, documentation, or support channels available to aid in this integration process, we would be eager to access them.

Thank you for your time and assistance. We look forward to hearing from the knowledgeable members of this community and hope to collaborate towards achieving a more efficient and customer-centric business environment.

We are currently uncertain about which API to utilize. In our offices, we use Clover terminals to collect card payments, and the process involves manually entering the payment amount on the Clover terminal. However, we aim to integrate the Clover terminal with our website or portal so that the amount can be automatically pushed from our website to the Clover terminal. This way, our staff won't have to manually enter the amount.

We do understand that it's possible to feed category and amount into the Clover terminal. However, the challenge lies in the fact that we have over 15,000 combinations that are already fed into our portal. We want to find a solution to automatically push the amount from our portal to the Clover terminal. We are seeking your advice on whether such integration is feasible. If it's not possible, we may explore other Point of Sale (POS) companies that offer integration options. Please provide your insights and recommendations on the matter.
