Clover Gift Cards

Gift cards are free marketing that pays you up front: customers prepay, then come back (and usually spend more). Clover Gift Cards runs the whole program from your POS.

By Craig "Rich" Riley · Updated

What it does

The Clover Gift Cards app lets you sell digital (eGift) and physical gift cards and issue store credit straight from your Clover device. It’s a simple, low-cost way to drive repeat visits, bring in new customers, and handle refunds as store credit instead of cash back.

Key features

  • Digital eGift cardsEmailed to the recipient with redemption instructions; work with Apple Wallet and Android wallet apps.
  • Custom physical cardsChoose from 70+ design templates or upload your own branded card — often under $1 per card.
  • Redeem anywhere on CloverAccept gift cards through the Register, Dining, or Sale app in a tap.
  • Reload & store creditReload a card or issue a Clover gift card as a refund — a smart alternative to cash refunds.
  • No expirationCards don’t expire, so balances keep customers coming back.

Who it’s for

Restaurants, salons & spas, retail, cafes — any repeat-visit business, especially around holidays and as a refund/store-credit tool. Gift cards consistently lift average spend because recipients tend to spend more than the card value.

Getting started

Download the Gift Cards tool from the Clover App Market, pick digital and/or physical, and start selling at checkout. It’s a low-cost add-on with no expiration on the cards.
