QR Codes On Receipts

QR Codes On Receipts prints your own QR codes on customer receipts. A WiFi password guests can join in one scan, a link to your Google or Yelp review page, a feedback form, your contact card — with a caption above the code and a schedule that decides when it prints.

Overview

How it works

1

A code is content plus a schedule

You pick the type, fill in its fields, write the caption printed above it, and choose the days it prints.

2

The content is inside the code

A WiFi code carries the network name and password; changing the password means updating the code.

3

Several codes can print together

Each active code prints its own block with its own caption.

4

Cloud-stored

Codes are saved to your merchant account and apply across devices.

The app never replaces the Clover Register — it adds to it. Payments, taxes and reporting stay in Clover.

  2. Tap + to create a code.
  3. Fill QR name (just for you) — an internal label.
  4. Tap EDIT TEXT and write the caption customers read above the code.
  5. Tap EDIT QR, choose the type and fill its fields.
  6. Choose ONE TIME or ALWAYS, tick the weekdays and save.
  7. Print a test receipt and scan the code with your own phone.

Configuration

Setup scenarios

Each scenario is a complete configuration — follow the steps in order.

Most configuration screens require the Clover employee role of Manager or Admin.
1Share the guest WiFi password

Nobody has to read a password off a chalkboard or ask staff twice.

  1. Open QRCodes and tap +.
  2. Enter a name in QR name (just for you), e.g. Guest WiFi.
  3. Tap EDIT TEXT and write the caption customers will read, e.g. Scan to join our WiFi.
  4. Tap EDIT QR, choose the WiFi type and enter the network name, password and encryption (usually WPA/WPA2).
  5. Set the schedule to ALWAYS and tick every weekday.
  6. Use the print icon to test it, and scan the code with your own phone to be sure it connects.
Update the code whenever you change the WiFi password — the printed code carries the password inside it.
2Ask for a Google or Yelp review

The best moment to ask is right after the purchase, and the receipt is already in the customer's hand.

  1. Create a new code and choose the URL type.
  2. Paste the link to your review page, e.g. https://g.page/r/….
  3. Write a short caption above it, such as How did we do? Scan to review us.
  4. Set ALWAYS, or restrict it to your busiest weekdays.
  5. Test print, scan it, and confirm the link opens the review form.
3A limited-time promotion link

A campaign page that must stop printing on its own.

  1. Create a code with the URL type pointing at the campaign page.
  2. Choose ONE TIME in the schedule and set the start and end dates.
  3. Select the weekdays the promotion runs.
  4. Keep your permanent WiFi code active alongside it.
  5. After the campaign, delete the code or leave it for reuse next time.
At the register

Everyday use

What the cashier does after the app is configured.

  1. Nothing to do — active codes print on receipts by themselves.
  2. Update the WiFi code whenever the password changes.
  3. Delete or let a one-time promotion code expire when the campaign ends.
If something is wrong

Troubleshooting

Symptom on the left, what to do on the right.

SymptomWhat to do
The code does not print.It is outside its date range, or today's weekday is not ticked.
Scanning does not connect to WiFi.The password or the encryption type in the code is wrong; edit the code and test print again.
Customers do not know what the code is for.Write a caption in EDIT TEXT — it prints directly above the code.
The code prints too small or too large.Adjust the font size and appearance under CUSTOMIZE.
The app's dialog never appears on the payment screen; Clover shows "Customer is choosing payment method".Open the Clover Setup app → Payments and uncheck Automatically take payment on Connected Device, so payment is taken on the primary device.
Settings cannot be opened or changed.Sign in with an employee whose Clover role is Manager or Admin. Some apps also have their own Restrict access switch that locks the configuration.
The app works erratically, or stops reacting after the device has been idle.Turn off Battery Saver in the device's Android settings and keep the device online.
A change made on one device is not visible on another.Settings sync through the cloud; give it a minute and make sure both devices have a network connection.
