Clover POS · Entertainment & leisure
A Clover setup built around how a kids' play cafe 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.
At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for kids' play cafes: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
A play cafe combines entry fees, parties and food, with parents who stay for hours and a rhythm of open play and booked events.
Entry by child, memberships, party packages with deposits and a cafe menu.
Cards for entry and parties, taps at the cafe counter and tips on party packages.
Front desk staff, cafe staff and party hosts, each with different tickets.
A Station Duo at the front desk with a customer screen for waivers and entry, and a Mini at the cafe counter.
The core device is the Clover Station Duo.

Entry by child count, memberships, parties and a cafe menu in one catalog.
A play cafe makes money three ways: entry, parties and the cafe. Entry priced per child with a sibling rule, parties with a deposit and a headcount adjustment on the day, and a cafe menu that parents can order from a seat are the three pieces, and a waiver and check-in flow at the front desk keeps the room safe and the line short.
Parties need deposits and a headcount; adjust the balance on the day.
With Merchant Fund Express you deal with the people who set the system up. We come on site, train your team and stay reachable by phone, and our funding side is there if you later need capital or equipment financing.
Deposits can be recorded as partial payments and applied at the event.
Entry can be sold as an item with a quantity for the number of children.
The Merchant Fund Express team installs on site, configures your items and trains your staff, then stays available by phone after launch.
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.
