How does a brow studio start accepting credit cards with Clover?

Short answer: A brow studio can be taking cards after a single installation visit: list your top sellers and logins, have the Clover Flex placed, programmed and tested on site, and run a practice sale with every staff member. Then review item, tip and deposit reports after the first week, and call (305) 384-8391 with any questions.

Key facts

  • Before install: top sellers, modifiers, logins and devices
  • Install day: Clover Flex placed, programmed and tested
  • First rush: a second person beside the register
  • Week one: review item, tip and deposit reports

Before install day

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for launch checklist for a brow studio: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.

Confirm where the Flex will sit and where power and the connection come from.
Pick the day and time of install so it does not collide with a delivery or a rush.
Decide who gets which login and who can refund or discount.
Photograph your current menu board or price list so items can be built from it.
Write down your top ten sellers and the modifiers each one needs, in the words your staff use.

On install day

A Flex at the chair for checkout without leaving the client and a Mini at the front for retail.

Printers and drawers are fired off to confirm they work together.
Items, prices and modifiers are built with you in the room.

Your first service

Brow studios run short appointments back to back, with add-ons and a high share of repeat clients on a four-to-six-week cycle.

Keep the support number on a card by the register.
Close out at your usual time and compare the report to the drawer.
Keep a second person next to the register for the first hour.

The first week

Skipping deposits for new clients invites no-shows that waste a prime slot.

Tell us what your staff keep asking about so we can add training.
Review the item report and trim buttons nobody uses.
Look at tips by employee and confirm the payout matches.

What your first day usually looks like

Open

the day's appointments are reviewed and new-client deposits confirmed.

Midday

services are short, so checkout happens at the chair on a handheld.

Afternoon

retail products (serums, pencils) are added at the end of a visit.

Close

tips are totaled by technician.

Roles and permissions to set on day one

One to three technicians. Individual logins let reports show each technician's services and tips.

The situation to prepare for

A late cancel or no-show is a lost slot; a deposit for new clients is the usual remedy.

How the catalog should be organized

Services are items priced by type, with add-ons as modifiers and retail products on the same ticket.

Brow services are short, repeatable and sold on trust, so the rhythm of rebooking is what grows the business. Offering the next appointment at the chair, with a reminder that goes out before the window closes, and a retail serum or pencil on the same ticket are the two habits that lift revenue per client without lengthening a visit.

Why work with us

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.

Common questions

Can I take deposits for new clients?

Yes. Deposits can be recorded as partial payments and applied at the visit.

Can clients tip on the screen?

Tip prompts appear at payment and are attributed to the technician.

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.

Can I take a deposit for new clients?

Deposits can be recorded when a new client books and applied at the visit, so the slot is protected and the client pays nothing twice.
