Setup Guide

Set Up Clover WooCommerce Integration

Follow these steps to install, license, and connect your Clover POS to WooCommerce. The whole process takes about 5 minutes. See the full feature list or check our FAQ if you have questions.

Rather not do this yourself?

Every licence includes free done-for-you setup. Give us a WordPress admin login and we handle the rest, usually the same day.

Step 01

Get Your License Key

After purchasing, you’ll receive a separate email from support@cloverwoo.com (sent by our license server, separate from your Stripe receipt).

Your license key has the format CLV-XXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX (for example CLV-EE6C-CC2043C8-356D5C8A-F5B604343564).

The same email contains your private plugin download link. Copy the license key — you’ll paste it into the plugin settings in the next steps.

Tip: Can’t find the email? Check your spam folder, or email <code>support@cloverwoo.com</code> and our support team will resend it.
Step 02

Install the Plugin

Download clover-woocommerce-integration.zip using the private download link in your license-delivery email.

In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin.

Choose the zip file and click Install Now, then Activate.

Tip: Your download link is tied to your active subscription — keep the email handy if you need to reinstall later.
Step 03

Enter Your License Key

Go to Clover → Settings in your WordPress admin sidebar.

Paste your license key (CLV-XXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX) into the License Key field at the top.

Click Save Settings. The plugin will verify your license immediately — you should see a green checkmark.

Step 04

Choose How to Connect

On the settings page, leave How to connect on Connect with CloverWoo and sign in. If you see not available for this environment and region, open Advanced: my own Clover app and paste your own keys instead — your Merchant ID, your Ecommerce API keys for payments and a Clover API token for sync, all made in your own Clover dashboard. No developer account either way. See the connection docs.

Set Environment to Production for a live store and pick your Region (North America, Europe or Latin America). Click Save Settings.

Tip: Advanced: if you already have your own Clover app (for example from sandbox testing), choose “Advanced: my own Clover app” instead. Note that Clover only lets a live store connect to an app after Clover has approved it — Connect with CloverWoo skips that wait entirely.
Step 05

Connect to Clover via OAuth

Click the Connect with CloverWoo button on the settings page.

You’ll be taken to Clover’s sign-in. Select your merchant account and approve CloverWoo.

You’ll be brought straight back to WordPress. A green “Connected” status confirms it worked, and your Merchant ID and payment key are filled in automatically.

Step 06

Configure Sync & Payments

Choose your sync direction — bidirectional, Clover → WooCommerce, or WooCommerce → Clover.

Set your conflict resolution strategy (Clover wins, WooCommerce wins, or newest wins).

Enable the Clover payment gateway under WooCommerce → Settings → Payments.

Step 07

Real-Time Sync (Automatic)

With Connect with CloverWoo, real-time updates from Clover are delivered to your store automatically — there is no webhook to configure.

If you chose Advanced (your own Clover app), copy the webhook URL from the plugin settings page into your app in the Clover Developer Dashboard and subscribe to items (I), inventory (IC), orders (O), customers (C) and payments (P).

Either way, the plugin also syncs on a schedule via WP-Cron, so nothing is lost if a real-time update is missed.

Tip: Using Cloudflare’s “challenge every visitor” mode on your store blocks Clover’s updates from reaching it. Allow /wp-json/clover-woo/ through, or rely on the scheduled sync.
Step 08

Run Your First Sync

Go to Clover → Dashboard (or Clover → Sync) in your WordPress admin sidebar.

Click Sync Products to pull your Clover items into WooCommerce (or push WooCommerce products to Clover).

The dashboard shows sync progress, mapped item counts, and a real-time activity log.

Tip: Start with products, then sync categories, inventory, customers, and orders in that order for best results.

You're all set!

Your Clover POS and WooCommerce store are now connected. Products, orders, inventory, and customers will sync automatically.
