How a payout works
Open the Clover Register, reach the payment screen and tap the Payouts Manager tender button. Enter an amount and a reason, then pick a mode: apply as payment to reduce the order total, remove cash to take money out of the drawer, or manual refund to record a negative transaction. Need a payout with no sale attached? The Launch Register feature issues payouts without items in the cart.

Frequently asked questions
What kinds of payouts can I record?
Lottery and video gaming payouts, bottle deposit refunds, cash drops, vendor payments, payroll, tips, rewards — or any custom payout with its own reason and amount entered on the spot.
Does it keep an audit trail?
Yes — every payout is logged with a reason, reports export to Excel, payouts print on receipts, and restrictions management controls what staff can do. For cash-heavy stores that's the difference between "money left the drawer" and "money left the drawer, and here's why".

Yes — the Launch Register feature issues payouts without items in the cart.
