Using the Clover Flex-3
By default, the Clover Flex-3 will be in Merchant mode, which allows you to access the admin panel and the Android device settings.

- The HSN (hardware serial number) is listed here for ease of use. This uniquely identifies the terminal and is needed for the setup in Liberty.
- Contact Support brings up the Cardpoint Support center website.
- Lock Customer Mode makes the device launch into Customer Mode automatically when the app is launched. Once the device is fully configured you won’t need to use Merchant Mode often, so locking it into Customer Mode can be helpful.
- Cardpointe Properties shows information about the hardware and software.
- Application Properties gives you the app version.
Running a Transaction Through The Liberty POS
The Clover terminal accepts the following types of payment:
- Credit Cards
- Debit Cards
- Contactless Cards
- EMV
- NFC
Once a sale is rung up in Liberty, the Clover will automatically light up with the total cost and prompt the customer to insert, tap, or swipe. They can insert or swipe at the bottom. Tap works anywhere on the screen but may work best on the top half of the terminal.
After the transaction is approved, Liberty will prompt for a receipt if you have that option selected, otherwise it will just ask you to click any key to complete the transaction.
