Clover POS · Retail
A Clover setup built around how an antique shop actually sells: the rush, the menu, the payments and the people who run it.
✓ Installed by our team and supported by phone. Rates and equipment are quoted to your business.
Short answer: For most antique shops, the core of a Clover setup is the Clover Station Duo (front counter with a customer screen for negotiated prices). A Station Duo at the front counter lets the buyer see the item description and the negotiated price on their own screen. Merchant Fund Express installs it on site, trains your staff and quotes processing to your business.

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for antique shops: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
Antique shops rarely have a rush in the restaurant sense. The pressure comes on weekend afternoons and during estate-sale seasons, when a few serious buyers arrive at once and each one wants to negotiate, ask about provenance and arrange delivery for a large piece.
Almost every item is one of a kind, so the catalog is built around unique tags rather than repeat SKUs. In a multi-dealer mall each booth needs its own dealer code so sales are credited to the right vendor at the end of the month.
Tickets are larger than most retail, and buyers often pay part today and the rest when the piece is collected. Card is the norm for big furniture, while smaller collectibles still see cash from regulars and dealers buying to resell.
A small team covers the floor and the counter, and in a dealer mall the person ringing a sale may not own the item. Individual logins and a discount limit keep negotiated prices on the record instead of in someone's memory.
A Station Duo at the front counter lets the buyer see the item description and the negotiated price on their own screen. A Flex on the floor takes a deposit next to a dresser at the back of the shop without walking the buyer to the register.
The core device is the Clover Station Duo.
The costly mistake is selling a consigned or dealer item without its dealer code. Untangling who is owed what at month end takes far longer than tagging it correctly at the register.
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.
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.

Yes. Items can carry SKUs and barcodes, stock counts update as you sell and reports show what moves.
It helps but is not required. A recent processing statement lets us compare your effective rate to what a Clover setup would look like for your sales mix.
No. Equipment and processing are quoted to your business, because the right number depends on your volume, card mix and how many stations you need. Call (305) 384-8391 for a personal quote.
