What Clover is in the NextPay lineup
- Retail: Retail Growth plan ($84.95/mo) — inventory tracking, staff management, item-level reporting, discount/void controls.
- Restaurants (full service): Restaurant Growth ($89.95/mo) — table service, server management, orders to kitchen, bill splitting, tip management.

Conversion & positioning
- If merchant already uses Clover: Likely on Fiserv's processing. Conversion play: move processing to our rails if they're on suboptimal rates. Upsell add-ons (Appointments, Advanced Inventory).
- If prospect is NOT using Clover: Pitch as the "Goldilocks" — easier than custom POS systems, more flexible than Square (app marketplace), all-in-one. Lead with familiar brand (merchants know Clover), hardware placement ($0 down), and our processing rates on top.
Rate conversation
If transitioning from Fiserv's rates: pull their statement, calculate effective rate, show our rate side-by-side. Clover merchants often pay per-item fees (hurts low-ticket stores) — interchange-plus or dual pricing usually beats them. If new to Clover, position our processing as part of the total cost: "Clover software + our rates = lower total cost than [competitor POS + their processing]."
