Automation and POS
Connect your systems. Reduce manual work.
Clove integrates websites, ordering platforms, POS systems, payments, printers, kitchen operations, notifications, inventory, and reporting into connected business workflows.
Confirmed integrations
Integration support for Foodhub and Square
Clove supports integrations involving Foodhub and Square, and works with other compatible POS and business platforms. Additional POS integrations are assessed according to platform capabilities.
Integration availability depends on APIs, account permissions, hardware, and the existing business setup — which is why every project starts with an honest technical assessment rather than a promise.
Connected order flow
How a connected order flows
When systems are integrated, an order placed by a customer moves through payment, POS, kitchen, and reporting without anyone re-typing it.

- Printing kitchen or fulfilment dockets

Before anything is built
Every integration starts with an assessment
Rather than assuming what is possible, Clove first reviews the platforms, devices, and processes the business already relies on. The result is a clear picture of what can be connected, how, and in what order.
Existing POS platform
Which system is in place and how it is currently used.
Available API or integration options
What the platform officially exposes and permits.
Ordering channels
Website, apps, marketplaces, phone, and in-store ordering.
Payment setup
How payments are taken, settled, and reconciled today.
Printers and devices
Docket printers, terminals, tablets, and kitchen screens.
Location structure
Single site, multi-site, franchises, or mixed models.
Current manual processes
Where staff re-type, copy, print, or double-handle data.
Security and permissions
Account access, roles, and data-handling requirements.
Reporting requirements
What owners and managers actually need to see, and when.
FAQ
Common questions
Which POS systems do you integrate with?
Clove supports integrations involving Foodhub and Square, and can work with other compatible POS and business platforms. Additional POS integrations are assessed according to platform capabilities — availability depends on APIs, account permissions, hardware, and the existing business setup.
Do we need to replace our current systems?
Usually not. The goal of integration is to make the systems you already have work together. Where a platform genuinely cannot support what the business needs, we explain the options honestly before anything changes.
What does an integration project look like?
It starts with an assessment of your current platforms, devices, and processes. From there we design the workflow, build and test the integration in a controlled way, and only switch it on once it behaves correctly end to end.
Can you automate things beyond hospitality?
Yes. The same approach — connecting systems and removing manual steps — applies to enquiries, document workflows, reporting, dashboards, and any process currently held together by spreadsheets and re-typing.
