For handymen the Clover Flex Pocket is the usual starting point: small invoices and card on site. Below: what the setup looks like, who it suits and where owners go wrong.

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for which credit card machine is best for a handyman: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
For most handymen we start with the Clover Flex Pocket. The Flex Pocket is the lightest device in the lineup: pocket-sized, Wi-Fi and cellular, tap, chip and swipe, with digital receipts by email or text.
Handymen take many small jobs in a day, each with its own invoice and often a customer who wants to pay by card right after.
Hourly or flat-rate jobs, materials and service fees, with small invoices that add up across the week.
Cards at the end of a job by handheld, with invoices for repeat clients.
Usually a solo operator or a very small crew; clean records are the main need.

Installation is on site: hardware set up and tested, your items and modifiers programmed, printers and drawers connected and your staff walked through a practice rush.
| Role | Device | Why it earns its place |
|---|---|---|
| Primary | Flex Pocket | Tool-bag terminal |
| Add-on | Flex | With printer |
| Add-on | Mini | Home-office desk |
