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.
Open Tools › Merchant terminal. Confirm the payout address (your card’s address on the chosen network), enter the business name buyers will see, and pick the accepted coin and network.
STEP 2
Registering
The app registers the terminal with the issuer. Wait for the confirmation before you charge the first payment.
STEP 3
Charge an amount
Type the amount to charge and tap Charge.
STEP 4
The buyer taps the card
Ask the buyer to hold their Clevor card against the back of your phone and keep it there.
STEP 5
Above the tap limit
If the amount is above the card’s tap limit, the buyer either approves the payment in their own Clevor app or types their POS PIN on your phone. The payment is held for a short time; you can cancel it.
STEP 6
POS PIN entry
The buyer enters their POS PIN on your phone, or approves the transaction number shown in their Clevor app.
STEP 7
Payment received
The amount, the issuer transaction number and the hash are shown. Tap New payment for the next customer.

The gear icon opens This terminal: issuer state, chip id and terminal key, the payout address, and the accepted coin and network.
