Launch checklist · Events & markets
Everything to do before, during and after your Clover goes live, in the order a trade show seller needs it.
✓ Installed by our team and supported by phone. Rates and equipment are quoted to your business.
Short answer: A trade show seller 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.

At Merchant Fund Express, we set up Clover for launch checklist for a trade show seller: the right devices, the features that matter in your workflow and on-site training for your staff.
A Flex Pocket or Flex on cellular, a charger and a simple price card at the booth.
Trade show sellers set up a booth, sell for two or three days and ship the rest home, so the payment tool has to be fast to set up and to reconcile.
Relying on convention-center Wi-Fi that is overloaded the moment the doors open.
booth number and show hours are set, and stock is shipped.
the booth is built and the device is tested on the hall's connection.
buyers visit in waves, so one person qualifies and another takes payment.
invoices for post-show orders are sent.
Two or three staff, often borrowed from other teams. A short script and a practice run help.
Large orders at a show are often invoiced, so keep a payment link ready.
Show specials are bundles priced for the show; wholesale follow-ups are invoices rather than card sales on the floor.
Trade shows are expensive per square foot, so the goal is leads converted, not only cash taken. A short list of show specials, a way to take payment at the booth and an invoice for the buyer who needs a purchase order afterward let a booth serve both the impulse buyer and the procurement team.
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.
