What's New in Lightspeed Retail

At Lightspeed, we innovate and deliver new product updates and fixes for our customers all year round. Check out what’s new in Lightspeed Retail POS (R-Series).

Shipments now synced through Lightspeed Accounting.

From the shipment record page, you can seamlessly synchronize shipments with your accounting tool through Lightspeed Accounting.

Automate item fees.

Selling goods that require an extra fee, like a bottling fee or a regulatory compliance fee? With the new item fees feature, items and fees are linked based on categories. When items in that category are added to a transaction, the item fee you set will be automatically added to the transaction as well.

New pin login improvements.

Reduced frequency of unnecessary PIN prompts and clear explanations when PINs are required means less interruption to work.

Add serial numbers to vendor returns.

Improve serial number tracking by attaching serial numbers to vendor returns. If a serial number is attached to an item on a vendor return, the serial number for that item will be moved to Old Serials (with associated Vendor Return ID) under Inventory > (item) > Serial #s tab.

Enhanced layaway and special order API functionality.

Optimize your inventory and prevent overselling with layaway and special order API functionality. This API enables you to integrate layaway and special orders into your internal systems.

eCom stores (C-Series) now compliant with Google Consent Mode.

If you have a cookie banner enabled on your store, your store is compliant and no action is needed.

DMARC authentication options for eCom (C-Series).

As part of new DMARC authentication regulations, you will need to add additional DNS records to your domain provider in order to verify you own the domain and are authorized to send emails using it.
