What is the best Clover POS setup for a wedding planner?

Short answer: For most wedding planners, the core of a Clover setup is the Clover Flex Pocket (consultations and venue visits). A Flex Pocket takes deposits at consultations and venue walk-throughs, and invoices handle milestone payments by email. Merchant Fund Express installs it on site, trains your staff and quotes processing to your business. Call (305) 384-8391 for a free rate review.

How a wedding planner really runs

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for wedding planners: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.

The rush

New bookings cluster in the weeks after the winter holidays, when many couples get engaged. Payments then spread across the months leading up to each wedding.

The menu

Full planning, partial planning and day-of coordination packages, plus add-ons such as rehearsal coordination or extra event days. Each package should be a clear item with its own name, so invoices and receipts match the contract the couple signed.

The payment mix

A deposit secures the date, then scheduled milestone payments and a final balance before the wedding. Couples often split payments between two cards.

The people

Usually a lead planner and a few assistants. Separate logins show who took each payment. Assistants who meet couples at venues should have their own logins, so the planner can see who collected each payment.

The hardware layout

A Flex Pocket takes deposits at consultations and venue walk-throughs, and invoices handle milestone payments by email. Because consultations happen at venues, coffee shops and homes, a pocket device with cellular avoids asking for anyone's Wi-Fi.

The core device is the Clover Flex Pocket.

Settings worth getting right

Build modifiers once so tickets read the same at the counter, the kitchen and in reports.
Turn on receipt options that match what customers ask for: paper, text or email.
Set suggested tip amounts that fit your average ticket instead of the default.
Close out the same time every day so deposits and reports line up.
Decide who can open the drawer and keep that list short.

What to avoid

Missed milestone payments create awkward conversations close to the wedding. Schedule and track each one. Send the next milestone invoice as soon as the previous one is paid, so couples always know what is coming next.

Setup and training

Our team ships hardware configured, then comes on site to place it, connect it, build your items and train your staff. We stay on the line through your first service.

Who installs and trains my staff?

The Merchant Fund Express team installs on site, configures your items and trains your staff, then stays available by phone after launch.

Should I send a statement before I call?

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.
