Final Countdown: How Businesses Can Leverage Clover POS Before the Tax Break Ends

Many merchants and Small Businesses are showcasing Tax Break Sale campaigns to capitalize on the final days of the Tax Break Period.

The Canadian government’s Tax Break, which began on December 14, 2024, is ending soon on February 15, 2025. With only a few days remaining, many businesses are reminding their customers to take advantage of the tax savings. Now is the time to prepare for potential tax readjustments and utilize creative store promotions to elevate sales before the deadline. With Clover’s Cloud-based POS system, merchants can easily update tax settings through their devices and online Dashboard, manage store promotions through official and third-party applications, and track sales across all their devices, ensuring a smooth transition when the tax break comes to an end.

Boost Potential Sales with the Tax Break

Lower prices adds opportunity to drive more consumer spending, helping businesses move more inventory and help increase customer loyalty. Tax breaks not only encourage impulse purchases but also create a sense of urgency, prompting customers to buy during the short term tax break rather than after the break is over. For merchants, this means higher foot traffic, more transaction volumes, and opportunities to upsell or bundle related products. Even in these final days, businesses can continue to leverage the tax break to attract last-minute shoppers looking for savings while reinforcing long-term customer relationships.

Quick Tax Adjustments with Clover POS

Clover’s cloud-based system allows businesses to modify tax settings instantly, applying exemptions to specific items or categories. By going to the Setup app on the Clover UI home page, then going to the Tax tab, merchants can easily reapply their HST and GST at the end of the Tax break by checking the “default” box in the Tax Rate settings and clicking save. Applying tax rates can also be easily reapplied on Clover Online Dashboard by going to the “Account & Setup”, selecting “Taxes & Fees” then checking the “Default'“ box then Save. These few taps and clicks are all merchants need to update all their connected devices, ensuring accuracy across locations and online stores—A quick few steps to be ready for when the Tax Break ends.

Maximizing the Final Week with Promotions

Creating urgency with limited-time deals, bundles, or loyalty rewards can drive last-minute sales. Clover’s official “Discount
App and third-party discount apps like “Mix or Match Discount Builder” by CSI Works, makes it easy to apply storewide promotions. Loyalty apps like RewardUp Loyalty and Digital Loyalty Loyalzoo, both Clover-compatible, offer free trials especially helpful for short term Tax Breaks like the Canadian Tax Break.
