Easy Tech TutsHow to Connect Clover Sales to QuickBooks Online Easily 2026
By Impran M N
Manually entering daily Clover sales totals into QuickBooks is a recipe for reconciliation headaches. By connecting Clover through an official connector app in the QuickBooks App Store, retailers can automate the sync of daily sales, tax, and tips straight into their books. Here's how to set it up.
01Open the Apps dashboard
From the left sidebar, scroll down and click Apps to open the QuickBooks integration marketplace.
02Search for a Clover connector
Use the search bar to look for Clover or Commerce Sync and select the appropriate connector app.
03Start the connection
Click Get App Now to begin the authorization process between the two platforms.
04Authorize your Clover account
Log in with your Clover administrator credentials on the redirected authorization page and confirm the requested permissions.
05Configure sync settings
Choose Consolidated Daily Summary to reduce ledger clutter, map income, sales tax, and tips to the right QuickBooks accounts, set your bank settlement account, then turn the sync on.
Frequently asked questions
Should I sync every line item or a daily summary?
A consolidated daily summary keeps your ledger cleaner than importing every individual sale, which is usually preferred for retail volume.
How do tips and sales tax get handled in the sync?
During setup you map separate account codes for gross revenue, tips, and tax so each stays distinct in your reporting.
How can I confirm the sync is working correctly?
Run a test sync and compare the imported daily totals against your actual bank deposits to check they match.
Do I need a specific QuickBooks plan for this integration?
The video doesn't specify plan requirements, but connector apps in the marketplace typically list any tier restrictions on their listing page.
