Retail

Lightspeed rolled out powerful new features designed to tackle common industry challenges, streamline operations, and enhance customer engagement. These updates provide retailers with comprehensive insights, improved efficiency, and enhanced tools for both in-store and online sales.

• NuORDER by Lightspeed introduces "Order Trends" to bring insight into wholesale buying
  
  Buyers can now gain a competitive edge with data-driven buying. This feature surfaces aggregated, top-performing product data (category, size, color) at the brand level, allowing buyers to make confident stocking decisions, by understanding what's selling well for other retailers,  and reducing their overhead risk. Early adopters of Order Trends have seen approximately 10% increase in average order value.
  
  
  
  
• Enhanced Inventory Tracking & Financial Metrics
  
  Achieve greater precision by creating Custom Inventory Adjustments, allowing for detailed tracking of stock changes. Additionally, Lightspeed Insights now includes Inventory Turns and GMROI (Gross Margin Return on Investment), providing crucial financial metrics traditionally found only in ERPs, directly within Lightspeed to help retailers optimize profitability. Retailers using Insights have on average seen a 25.4% higher GMROI compared to merchants without Insights¹.
  
  
  
  
• Lightspeed Retail achieves "Built for NetSuite" status
  
  The new Lightspeed Retail SuiteApp enables retailers to integrate and automate data flows between NetSuite and Lightspeed Retail POS to improve data sync across products, inventory, and customer history; simplify transaction reporting; optimize inventory; and centralize multi-location data visibility.
  
  
  
  
• Improved Clienteling on Lightspeed Scanner App
  
  With the Lightspeed Scanner App, sales associates are empowered with real-time product information. It allows for easy product search, inventory checks, and pricing directly from the app, leading to a more informed shopping experience. For iOS users, the Scanner app also offers search filtering and supports Loyalty and Store Credit Payments on the shop floor, streamlining checkout.
  
  
  
  
• Seamless Omnichannel Management
  
  Lightspeed now offers enhanced support for Omnichannel refunds, statuses, charges, and packing slips. Retailers can set custom online checkout charges (including pickup fees), print packing slips for orders, and ensure order status (fulfillment and refunds) syncs seamlessly between platforms, providing end-to-end tracking.

Hospitality

• Lightspeed Restaurant's AI-powered Benchmarks and Trends launches in Europe
  
  Previously available to North American hospitality customers and now available in certain European countries as well, Benchmarks & Trends addresses the need to stay competitive in this evolving market by giving restaurant owners a deeper understanding of their own performance and how they measure up against local competitors. These insights can help boost revenue, streamline operations, and gain a competitive upper hand in a crowded dining landscape where customers are hungry for the best dining options.
  
  
  
  
• Serve more, walk less with the upgraded Lightspeed Tableside
  
  Lightspeed Tableside just got more versatile. Tableside is the pocket-size, mobile POS that allows servers to take orders and payments directly at the table, on the terrace, or wherever guests are. Now, with the addition of the sleek new Mobile Tap device to merchants in the UK, Netherlands, and Belgium, Tableside can take tap, insert, and swipe, with battery life up to 48hrs. Powered by Lightspeed Payments, it speeds up service, increases table turnover, and keeps staff moving less while selling more.
  
  
  
  
• Get deeper insights on the go with Lightspeed Pulse
  
  Lightspeed Pulse, our real-time reporting App now offers deeper insights to help restauranteurs uncover sales trends. Stay informed on the go with digestible data—spot sales trends, top staff and best-sellers at a glance. Plus, a new "yesterday" filter makes it easy to check how the business performed at a glance, all from the convenience of a smartphone.
  
  
  
  
• Streamlined operations and kitchen performance for better order flow
  
  New updates make daily restaurant operations smoother and more efficient, from menu management to kitchen flow. Kitchen Display System (KDS) users can now directly access "Prep insights" to analyze kitchen performance. Meanwhile merchants now have more control over item details and menu updates, saving time by reducing the need for manual updates in the Back Office.
  
  
  
  
• New Sales Report and real-time hourly sales metrics help improve profitability
  
  Designed with profitability in mind, Lightspeed Restaurant launched Sales Report to consolidate all key sales insights into a single, clear and customizable view which empowers restaurateurs to analyze sales drivers and identify trends. Operators can get even more granular by filtering and selecting what metrics they want to see hourly, or analyze performance focusing on specific shifts, e.g. breakfast, lunch, dinner, etc.  These new reports are designed to help businesses plan smarter shifts, cut costs and boost revenue with real-time insights.

Golf

• Lightspeed and Whoosh partnership elevates private golf operations
  
  As Whoosh's Preferred Membership Management Partner, Lightspeed will provide Whoosh users in the Private club space its cloud-based point of sale, payments and membership management technology directly integrated into their tee sheet, giving clubs an automated, real-time view of member activity across the facility.
