RightPlace with Clover
A waitlist and kitchen screen beside your Clover, no new register.
Clover is built to take payments and run Clover apps. RightPlace runs on a tablet or laptop beside it to handle the waitlist, the kitchen pass and the guests deciding where to go tonight. Your Clover keeps doing exactly what it does now.

Keep Clover doing what it does best
Clover rings up the sale, runs the card and keeps your menu, checks and payments. RightPlace leaves all of that alone. It covers the parts of the night that happen before and around the check: the door, the line, the kitchen pass, the guests who are deciding where to go tonight, and the regulars you want back next week.
Nothing to install on Clover, nothing to switch off, and nothing to retrain on the register. No hardware required.
Where RightPlace runs on a Clover setup
- Clover devices are built to run Clover apps and don’t have the Google Play store, so give RightPlace a screen of its own: any tablet, laptop or other device with a web browser.
- Put it at the host stand or the kitchen pass and sign in with your spot’s code. It takes a minute.
- Your Clover goes on taking payments exactly as it does today.
- Clover developer docs: Clover devices: Clover’s own page on its devices and the apps they run.
Tip: keep a spare device or two charged in case a server’s phone dies. Staff can use their own devices if they like.
Get more out of Clover (advice any spot can use)
- Use your Clover sales reports to find the slowest night and hour, then put one deal on exactly that window.
- Export your Clover inventory as a CSV now and then. It is a handy backup, and it lets RightPlace match your item names.
- Keep the waitlist off the register on busy nights, so checkout never waits behind the door.
- Tell the whole floor when an item runs out. Tap “86 an item” in RightPlace’s kitchen screen and server phones, the host stand and the Door TV all show it sold out.
- Tap Rung in with the Clover order number when a RightPlace ticket goes on the register, so nothing is made without being rung.
What RightPlace adds beside Clover
- A posted wait guests can see: The host posts the wait with one tap. Guests looking for a spot tonight see it with the time it was updated, and can tap On the way.
- Deals that fill slow nights: Post a deal from the host stand with a start, an end and a photo. Guests see a countdown, so a Tuesday special works on Tuesday.
- A kitchen screen for RightPlace orders: Food ordered ahead and server phone orders show on a kitchen screen. A "Rung in" list shows which tickets still need to go on Clover, with the check number once they do.
- A TV by the door: Any smart TV shows the wait, tonight’s specials, games and photos from tonight.
- Table requests by scan code: A guest scans the code on the table to ask for a refill, the check or a to-go box. It goes to that table’s server.
- A Night Report in plain numbers: Parties seated through RightPlace, deals used and times, counted from your staff’s taps. Your sales numbers stay in Clover.
Already have a waitlist or reservations?
The Clover App Market has waitlist and reservation apps, and if you use one that works, keep it. RightPlace’s biggest help is bringing people in: guests looking for a spot tonight see the wait you posted and your deals, tap On the way, and come back for the perks you set. You can also run the waitlist on RightPlace; pick whichever your host likes.
Set it up in a few minutes
- Pick a screen: Use a screen you already have where it can open a web browser, or any tablet, laptop or phone beside the register.
- Open getrightplace.app: Sign in with your spot’s 6-digit code. There is nothing to download from an app store.
- Bring your menu over: Export your items from Clover as a CSV file and pick it in RightPlace. You see everything before it saves, and the names match your Clover buttons.
- Run a night: The host stand, kitchen, servers and Door TV each open on their own screen. Payments keep going through Clover.
Clover is a trademark of its owner. RightPlace is a separate company, not affiliated with or endorsed by Clover, and RightPlace does not connect to Clover: it runs beside it in a web browser.

Questions owners ask
Can RightPlace run on my Clover screen?
Plan on a separate screen. Clover devices are built to run Clover apps, so RightPlace runs on any tablet, laptop or phone beside it, in the web browser.
Can I import my Clover menu?
Yes. Export your items from Clover as a CSV file and pick it in RightPlace. You see everything before it saves, and the names match your Clover items.
Does RightPlace replace Clover?
No. Clover keeps every sale, card payment and check. RightPlace never takes payment and runs beside your register in a web browser.
