Clip

What is Clip?

Clip is a payments company in Mexico that provides card readers, point-of-sale terminals and online payment tools so merchants can accept credit, debit and meal voucher cards.

Key features of Clip

• Card terminals: readers and all-in-one terminals such as Clip Total with printer and NFC.
• Contactless payments: NFC reader support.
• Online payments: payment links and web plugin.
• Meal vouchers and cards: accepts major cards and vouchers.

How Clip works

Merchants get a terminal or use online tools, accept payments and receive deposits. Clip charges a commission on each successful transaction rather than a monthly software fee.

Who uses Clip?

Clip is used by small and mid-sized businesses in Mexico, from market stalls to restaurants and retailers. Clip Total terminals combine a printer, an NFC reader and a SIM for connectivity in one device, so merchants can take payments away from the counter.

Clip pricing

Clip charges per transaction; commission rates and terminal prices are set by the vendor and change with promotions.

Clip integrations

Clip offers an online plugin and payment links for ecommerce, and does not publish a list of named software integrations.

Clip alternatives

Stripe is a global gateway with strong online tooling. Open is a Mexican payments provider for online checkout. Treasury Prime and Modulr are banking-as-a-service infrastructure providers, which is a different job. Clip focuses on in-person card acceptance.
