CLEVOR APP · TUTORIAL 9 OF 13

Accept payments: turn your phone into a Clevor terminal

Any Android phone with the Clevor app can become a Clevor terminal. Buyers pay by holding their Clevor card to the back of your phone; payments settle to your card’s address.

Before you start: A Clevor account with an activated card (its address receives the payments), an Android phone with NFC, and the coin and network you want to accept.
