Advanced Fees

Trigger fees automatically or only when the rules match. Item-level or order-level. One fee or many.

Why Use the Advanced Fees App?

Because Clover’s native POS only allows limited fee control.

With the Advanced Fees App, you gain more flexible and intelligent fee handling:

  • Line-item or order-level: Apply a fee to selected items or to the entire ticket.
  • Dollar or percent: Set each fee as a fixed amount or a percentage.
  • Automatic or prompted: Apply the fee every time, after a checkout question, by order type, or when the ticket is over or under a spend amount.
  • Multiple fee types: Run as many fee rules as the business needs — at the same time.

Whether you need bottle deposits, service charges, large-party gratuity, or other industry add-ons, the app keeps those fees consistent at the point of sale.

Works on Smart POS Devices
Interacts with other software
When Register is open and an item is on the ticket, Advanced Fees can apply the fee or ask the clerk first. It can add the fee when the item is added or when Pay is pressed, and it can limit that to an order type or a spend amount over or under a threshold.
Merchants assign item fees to specific inventory items or categories. The fee can print as a modifier on that item or as a separate custom line. Order-level fees use a named custom item on the ticket.
Fees applied by Advanced Fees show in Clover’s native Reporting app, so merchants can track them with the rest of the ticket.
