Clover POS · Mobile food
A Clover setup built around how a mobile bar 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 mobile bars, the core of a Clover setup is the Clover Flex (main bar terminal with cellular and printer). A Flex with its own cellular connection runs the bar anywhere and prints receipts. 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 mobile bars: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
Mobile bars work weddings, festivals, corporate parties and private events. Orders surge when guests arrive, between speeches and right before last call, and every venue has different power and signal.
The menu is short: a few signature cocktails, beer, wine and non-alcoholic options, sometimes with event packages. Hosted bars are prepaid by the client, while cash bars sell drink by drink.
At cash bars guests tap or open a tab, sometimes with a pre-authorized card, and tips matter. Hosted packages are paid before the event. Checking ID before serving is the operator's responsibility.
Bartenders move from venue to venue, often with temporary help for big events. Individual logins keep tips and sales clear for each bartender and each event.
A Flex with its own cellular connection runs the bar anywhere and prints receipts. A Flex Pocket gives a second bartender a payment point without crowding the bar.
The core device is the Clover Flex.
Counting on venue Wi-Fi is the classic failure: it slows or drops when the room fills. A cellular device keeps the bar selling.
Installation is a visit, not a shipment: a technician places and tests each device, programs your menu or services with you, connects printers and drawers and practices a full transaction with every person who will use it.
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.
