Setting up your Clover Go 3 Dock

The Clover Go 3 Dock is the countertop stand Arca provides for the Clover Go 3 card reader — it holds and charges your reader so it's always ready at the register. This guide covers assembling the dock, seating your reader, connecting power, and optional ways to secure it to the counter.

What's in the box

Note: A USB cable is not included — use a standard USB cable and power adapter to power the dock. Your Clover Go 3 card reader is the device that sits in the dock; it comes separately.

Set it up in 4 steps

1

Assemble the dock

Attach the cradle (the top piece) onto the dock base until it clicks into place.

2

Dock your reader

Place your Clover Go 3 card reader into the cradle so it seats on the charging contacts.

3

Tighten the screw

Tighten the screw underneath to lock the cradle to the base.

4

Connect power

Plug a USB cable into the dock's power port, then into a power adapter and outlet (USB cable not included).

Tip: Once powered, your Go 3 charges automatically whenever it's resting in the dock — keep it docked between sales so it's always topped up.

Secure your dock (optional)

If you want the dock fixed in place, you have three options:
