Benefits

• Payment tied to the checkThe payment starts from the check in CLÉ POS and its result returns to that same check, with nothing re-entered.
• Tip recordedThe tip captured on the terminal is assigned to the server and to the check.
• Deposits explainedEach confirmed deposit is matched to the processor’s settlement and to the payments it settles, with dates and fees; differences are shown.

Essential features

• Integrated terminal, by processorWhere the processor supports it, the amount comes from the check and is not typed on the terminal. Supported terminals and payment modes are confirmed through each processor’s official integration.
• Partial payments and refundsSplit payments and partial or full refunds, with refunded tip and manager authorization, recorded on the same check and in the day’s close.
• Pending payments visibleA payment without a response from the terminal is shown as pending until it is confirmed.
• ReconciliationPayment, reported settlement and confirmed deposit are matched by date and batch; an estimated net is kept distinct from a deposit.
• Operations viewPayments, pending items and reconciliation in one view for the administrator.
