The Finalsite Store integrates with Clover POS (point-of-sale system) to unify product catalogs, inventory tracking, and order management across your online and physical storefronts. A point-of-sale (POS) system refers to the hardware and software used to complete transactions, such as taking payments, managing inventory, and processing sales. Clover offers a range of POS options, including countertop terminals, mobile readers, and full register setups, making it easy for schools to manage both physical and digital storefronts.

Benefits of a Clover POS integration
The Finalsite Store supports four levels of synchronization with Clover POS.Â
Click each of these benefits to learn more:
Initial product import
When the Store is first connected to Clover POS, products and categories are imported from Clover into the Store in a disabled state. This allows you to add images and descriptions before publishing.
Imported product details include:
- SKU
- Name
- Price
- Stock level
- UPC
- Product options with modifiers
- Category
Important Note
Clover acts as the master catalog. Products are synced from Clover to the Store, not the other way around. Images and descriptions must be added manually in the Store.
Manual catalog updates
You can manually import products from Clover at any time. This is useful for:
- Syncing new items added in Clover.
- Updating existing product details.
- Refreshing stock levels or categories.
Manual sync includes:
- SKU
- Name
- Price
- Stock level
- UPC
- Product options
- Category
Important Note
Deleting a product in Clover does not remove it from the Store. You will need to delete it manually in both systems to keep your catalog clean.
Automatic inventory sync
Inventory levels are automatically updated when:
- Products have matching SKUs in both systems.
- Inventory sync is enabled in your Store settings.
Sales made through Clover POS update inventory in the Store within minutes, and the same applies when products are purchased online.
Important Note
Product options may be overwritten during sync. Clover supports only radio buttons and checkboxes, so incompatible option types may be removed.
Automatic order sync
Orders placed in the Store will sync to Square POS if:
- Inventory sync is enabled.
- The order is paid using Clover Payments.
Important Note
Orders created in Clover POS do not appear in the Store, but inventory is still updated to reflect the sale.
This integration helps reduce manual updates, prevent overselling, and keep your store aligned across platforms.
