### 1/5 — Complete garbage

*2024-01-21, version 6.1.0*

Basic features that should be standard are still missing after years. Avoid this app at all cost.

### 1/5 — I just dislike this app

*2021-08-20, version 5.7.2*

I use this application because the company that I work for uses it.  I would not use this application for my own business.  Every time I have to process a payment I have to go to settings and adjust them.  The application doesn’t save your settings. It’s a hassle and a waste of time to do that every time you have to process a payment.  Not a very good application.

### 4/5 — I like the fact they got Bluetooth reader that can accept nfc too.

*2019-01-23, version 5.3.2*

For iPhone user, recommend blue tooth reader. When you first pair you need connector but afterwards your good to go. App wise, good to be use but.. I’m pretty sure they can do better.

### 2/5 — Logs out too often

*2018-08-17, version 5.2.2*

Please make an option in settings to adjust automatic log out time. We have to log in every time we check someone out which takes too much extra time.

### 1/5 — Charge

*2018-04-09, version 5.1.4*

Edible company , I don’t recommend  to anyone , The beginning nice , but after while  they broke the law and charge you as much as they can , I charged one of  my client $2,791 , After three weeks they didn’t deposit to my account I gave them my clients phone number , address,  and also I sent electronic invoice to this company ,but they never respond , they hold the amount, They don’t want to deposit to my account and also they don’t want to  refund to my client account. They said  we will do refund in 10 business , but it’s almost one month they didn’t respond , And today they charged me $97 for no reason, They recognize my  phone number and they  don’t wanna pick up the phone. .... I highly recommend clover go company app.   It’s four circle , three green circle , one white.

### 1/5 — Owner/Estheticain

*2017-02-22, version 5.0*

Very disappointed with the new upgrade. It's extremely awkward handing the phone over to the client to give me a tip then swipe the card then have them sign. So I've opted to just skip the tip section and missing out on my tips from clients because I'd rather not feel awkward. I was looking into another app with the same roam pay.. would really like if it was changed back to what it was before.

### 1/5 — Tip w/ Signature

*2017-02-17, version 5.0*

PLEASE fix the tip before signature! App is ok but it'll be better if they adjust that.

### 2/5 — I don't like it

*2017-02-07, version 5.0*

X4 version was much better and easy to use, larger icons and fonts.
In x5 you have to make few more steps to process the card 👎

### 2/5 — Disappointed

*2017-01-31, version 5.0*

The tip BEFORE the signature is a disaster. It is extremely awkward and has definitely cost me money. Not cool, Roam Pay. Not cool. This app is historically late to update and can't ever seem to find it's footing. Love the service, absolutely HATE the app.

### 1/5 — Tip with signature

*2017-01-25, version 5.0*

Don't like that the Tip is asked for before the card is even swiped. Makes asking for tip extremely uncomfortable. Much prefer the tip and signature being together. Really upsetting.
