Devices
Our point of sale (POS) software runs on custom hardware for the best merchant experience. Developers can publish apps through the Clover App Market. Most Android applications run unmodified unless the app depends on Google services not available in the Android Open-Source Project (AOSP).
Google Play
Clover devices are not Google Play certified and do not come with Google Play Services.

Kits
Clover Developer Kits (Dev Kits) are available through our regional resellers and partners.
Before you begin with a Clover device
Note the features and best practices to work with Dev Kits
- Dev Kits are only for use in the sandbox environment.
- You cannot re-provision your Dev Kit between the sandbox and production environments.
- You cannot migrate your developer and merchant accounts between the sandbox and production environments.
- Be careful when using EMV credit cards. Repeatedly inserting an active EMV credit card into an EMV-enabled development device that is pointed to a blackhole payment gateway may cause the credit card to be disabled. This is because of EMV protection against repeated inserts that do not result in actual payments.
