Fintech company Fiserv has expanded its point-of-sale (POS) system and software platform Clover to Australia, offering small-to-medium businesses an integrated solution to streamline operations.  

This expansion establishes Clover’s presence in 11 countries, supporting 3.5 million devices globally, the release said.  

Clover’s proprietary hardware and software combine to replace “fragmented” payment terminals and non-integrated services.   

This system is tailored for the hospitality, service, and retail sectors. 

The platform integrates with specialised solutions, facilitating tasks such as online ordering, accounting, inventory management, and employee management.  

With the Clover Web Dashboard, business owners can monitor sales, manage customer information for promotions, and assess staff performance.  

The company plans to expand the platform with new apps, automated features, various payment options, and hardware. 

Four Clover models are currently available in Australia – Clover Flex, Clover Mini, Station Duo, and Clover Kiosk.  

Commenting on how the solution aids businesses, Fiserv Australia country manager Gavin Jones said: “Australia’s small businesses, particularly those in the retail and hospitality sectors, are vital to the economy.  

“Ninety-eight per cent of Aussie businesses identify as small-to-medium businesses but many rely on a complex array of solutions that don’t integrate with each other and are supported in a fragmented way. Small businesses work incredibly hard to get ahead in the market and Clover provides advanced technology backed by support teams that are dedicated to helping businesses grow. 

“With two-thirds of small Australian businesses aiming to scale, there’s a clear opportunity for Clover to support them in adopting technology that enables growth and keeps them competitive in a rapidly evolving market.” 

The expansion follows Fiserv’s acquisition of Dutch payments technology provider CCV, which has enabled the company to extend Clover’s reach and serve a broader merchant and partner base.
