How does a pest control company start accepting credit cards with Clover?

Short answer: A pest control company can be taking cards after a single installation visit: list your top sellers and logins, have the Clover Flex Pocket 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 Pocket 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 pest control company: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.

Confirm where the Flex Pocket will sit and where power and the connection come from.
List every printer, drawer and scanner the setup needs.
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.

On install day

A Flex Pocket in each truck with cellular, plus recurring billing from the office.

Tip prompts, receipts and closing time are set.
Hardware is placed, connected and tested before any customer sees it.

Your first service

Pest control runs on recurring plans and one-time treatments, with technicians covering routes and a busy spring and summer.

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.
Ask the first ten customers if anything about checkout confused them.

The first week

Collecting each visit by hand when the plan is recurring wastes technician time.

Review the item report and trim buttons nobody uses.
Look at tips by employee and confirm the payout matches.
Check deposits against your batch reports.

How the catalog should be organized

Recurring plans and one-time treatments are separate items.

Pest control is a recurring-revenue business wearing a service business's clothes. The strongest habit is separating plan customers from one-time treatments in reports, so you can see how many customers are on plan, how many renew and how many one-time visits could be converted into plans with a single conversation at the end of a job.
