DineSync for Clover

DineSync for Clover connects your WooCommerce store to your Clover POS. Orders placed online arrive on your Clover device. Product and price changes you make in WooCommerce are pushed to Clover. Your Clover menu — items, categories, prices and modifier groups — can be imported into WooCommerce whenever you need it.

DineSync works with WooCommerce rather than replacing it. Your products, orders, customers, payment gateways and shipping methods stay where they are.

Built for restaurants, cafes, bakeries, and food businesses that take orders online through WooCommerce and run Clover POS in-store.

What DineSync does

Being precise about this matters more than sounding impressive, so here is the actual scope:

• Orders go to Clover as they are placed. A WooCommerce order appears on your Clover POS within seconds of checkout, with line items, modifier selections, customer details, fees, shipping and discounts.
• Product and price changes push to Clover when you save. Edit a product in WooCommerce and the changed fields are sent to Clover. Only what actually changed is sent.
• Your Clover menu imports into WooCommerce on demand. Click Import from Clover to pull items, categories, prices, stock levels and modifier groups across.
• Modifiers come across and display on your storefront. Clover modifier groups become selectable options on the product page.
• How modifiers appear on the Clover ticket depends on where they came from. Modifiers imported from Clover are attached to the item they belong to, exactly as they would be if the order had been rung up in store. Modifiers managed by a third-party add-on plugin have no matching record in Clover, so their cost stays in the item’s price and their names are printed in the item’s note. Either way the ticket totals are correct.
• Orders can print to your Clover kitchen printer automatically when they arrive.

What DineSync does not do

• Changes made on your Clover POS do not flow back to WooCommerce automatically. There is no live Clover-to-WooCommerce feed. If you change a price or stock level on the Clover device, run Import from Clover to bring it across. This is a deliberate statement of scope, not a temporary outage.
• It is not a replacement checkout, cart or ordering system.

Why DineSync?

• Keep WooCommerce — Your products, orders and customers stay in WooCommerce. Use any of the WooCommerce payment gateways, shipping plugins and marketing tools you already rely on.
• Push to Clover, not just pull from it — Update a price in WooCommerce and it reaches your Clover POS on save.
• No vendor lock-in — Sync data is stored as ordinary WooCommerce product metadata. Deactivate DineSync and your products, orders and customer history are untouched.
• Per-field control — Choose exactly which fields sync: price, name, SKU, categories, stock, availability, description and modifiers.
• Smart updates — Only changed fields are sent to Clover, minimising API calls and avoiding unnecessary overwrites.

Key Features

Order Sync (WooCommerce to Clover)

• WooCommerce orders appear on your Clover POS with full details
• Line items, modifier selections, customer info (name, email, phone), fees, shipping and discounts included
• Payment recording on Clover, so orders show as paid with the correct amount
• Auto-print to a Clover printer you select
• Duplicate order prevention with transient-based locking
• Works with both the classic WooCommerce checkout and block-based checkout

Order Status (WooCommerce to Clover)

• WooCommerce “Completed” marks the Clover order fulfilled
• WooCommerce “Cancelled” and “Refunded” cancel the Clover order

Product Push (WooCommerce to Clover)

• Push products to Clover with diff-based updates — only changed fields are sent
• Push happens when you save a product, and in bulk from the Inventory Actions panel
• Bulk pushes are batched (30 items at a time) to avoid timeouts
• Out-of-stock WooCommerce products are marked unavailable on Clover
• WooCommerce short descriptions map to Clover’s alternateName field, stripped of HTML and trimmed to Clover’s 127-character limit
• WooCommerce categories are created on Clover if they do not already exist

Menu Import (Clover to WooCommerce, on demand)

• Import items, categories, prices, stock levels and modifier groups from Clover
• Existing WooCommerce products are matched to Clover items by name or SKU during import, so importing does not create duplicates of products you already have
• Per-field sync toggles control what an import is allowed to overwrite
• Clean & Re-Sync resets all mappings so you can start from a clean slate

Modifier Groups

• Clover modifier groups (toppings, sizes, extras) import with your menu
• Built-in storefront renderer with radio buttons, checkboxes and live price adjustment
• Adapter support for WooFood / Flavor and WC Product Add-Ons — the plugin detects which is active and writes modifiers in that format
• Works with no configuration

Built for WooCommerce

• Uses native WooCommerce products, cart, checkout and orders
• Compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS / Custom Order Tables)
• Works with any WooCommerce-compatible theme
• Settings dashboard with connection status, sync statistics and an activity log

Who Is It For?

Restaurants, cafes, bakeries, food trucks and food businesses that:

• Use Clover POS in-store and want online orders to reach it
• Want to keep the WooCommerce ecosystem — payment gateways, shipping plugins, marketing tools
• Want control over exactly what data is sent to Clover

Third-Party Services

1. Clover POS API (api.clover.com / apisandbox.dev.clover.com)

The official Clover API. This is the only external service a new installation contacts.

• Used for: reading and writing inventory items, modifier groups, categories, orders and merchant data
• API endpoints: https://api.clover.com/v3 (production) and https://apisandbox.dev.clover.com/v3 (sandbox)
• Data sent: product names, prices, SKUs, stock levels, descriptions, categories, order details, customer names, emails and phone numbers
• Data received: Clover items, categories, modifier groups, stock levels, printers, employees, order statuses
• Privacy Policy
• Terms of Service

2. DineSync Hub (hub.monirtechsolutions.com) — legacy connections only

Earlier versions of DineSync offered a hosted connection option that routed through our own middleware. Connecting with a Merchant ID and API token, which is the only method this version offers, does not contact the Hub at all. This entry remains for stores that were linked using the older method and still hold Hub credentials.

• Used for: relaying requests and status pings for stores still linked by the legacy method
• Service URL: https://hub.monirtechsolutions.com
• Data sent (legacy connections only): site URL, admin email, Clover merchant ID, plugin version, order sync counts, heartbeat status
• Privacy Policy
• Terms of Service
