Frequently Asked Questions

What is the relationship between Fiserv and Clover?

Clover is a POS hardware and software brand owned by Fiserv. When you purchase a Clover device — whether from a bank, reseller, or directly — you are using Fiserv's payment infrastructure. Fiserv operates the acquiring and processing layer behind many Clover deployments. The processing terms you receive depend on the channel through which you acquired the Clover system.

Can small businesses work directly with Fiserv?

Fiserv primarily operates through enterprise agreements, banking partnerships, and reseller channels rather than direct small-business self-service. Small businesses typically interact with Fiserv's infrastructure indirectly — through banks that offer Fiserv-powered merchant accounts, or through the Clover POS sold by those banks. Verify current direct-to-merchant options directly with Fiserv.

What types of businesses does Fiserv serve?

Fiserv serves businesses across retail, restaurants, ecommerce, and enterprise verticals through its various technology products and partner channels. Its scale covers millions of merchant locations globally. Business access is typically through bank and partner relationships rather than self-serve signup.

Does Fiserv publish pricing?

Fiserv does not publish a standard merchant pricing schedule publicly. Pricing is arranged through enterprise or partner agreements and varies significantly by account, volume, and the channel through which the relationship is established.

How does Fiserv compare to other large processors like Worldpay and Global Payments?

Fiserv, Worldpay, and Global Payments are all among the largest payment technology companies globally. All three primarily serve enterprise clients and work through partner and banking channels. Key differentiators include technology ecosystems (Fiserv owns Clover), global reach, and specific vertical products. The right fit depends on your business size, technical needs, and existing banking relationships.
