Card machine guide · Restaurants
For sushi restaurants the Clover Station Duo is the usual starting point: roll modifiers, omakase tickets and takeout orders. The sections below cover sizing, the usual traps and what installation looks like.
✓ Installed by our team and supported by phone. Rates and equipment are quoted to your business.
At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for which credit card machine is best for a sushi restaurant: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
For most sushi restaurants we start with the Clover Station Duo. On the Station Duo the staff work on a large 14-inch display while the customer sees and tips on a second 8-inch screen. Tap, chip and swipe are all accepted and the printer is built in.
Sushi service is precise: a sushi bar with chef-prepared courses, a kitchen line with hot items, and a takeout stream that never stops on weekends.
Rolls come with modifiers (no spicy mayo, sauce on side), and omakase seatings are priced per person with add-ons. Tickets should route cold items to the sushi bar and hot items to the kitchen.
Card-heavy, with high tickets for dinner and a lot of delivery and takeout orders at lunch.
Sushi chefs and servers work in different rhythms; routing tickets by station keeps each one focused on their part.
A Station Duo at the host stand, a Flex for tableside, and two kitchen displays or printers (sushi bar and kitchen) so orders reach the right station.
Setup is done with you in the room: devices placed where they will really be used, items and modifiers entered in your language, a test of each payment type and a short training session for opening and closing.
| Role | Device | Why it earns its place |
|---|---|---|
| Primary | Station Duo | Host and bar register |
| Add-on | Kitchen Display 14" | Sushi bar station |
| Add-on | Flex | Tableside and takeout checkout |
Sending every item to one printer forces runners to sort tickets by hand during a rush.
What you get from Merchant Fund Express is a team, not a box: installation at your location, practical training and phone support, plus funding options from the same company if your plans grow.
