Lightspeed's Q3 innovations brought a number of new products and feature sets across the retail and hospitality industries, including:

Retail

• Expanded Lightspeed Scanner Revolutionizes the Retail Shopping Experience
  Lightspeed has expanded its Scanner app with selling capabilities, addressing the frustration of long lines and interrupted shopping experiences. Now available on the iPhone version of the app, the updated Scanner enables complete purchases directly from the shop floor using Mobile Selling. It's designed to create a more customized, seamless experience for customers while empowering retailers to scale up registers more efficiently during busy times.
  
• Pushing Out More Powerful Promotions for Retailers and Wholesalers
  Lightspeed gives both retailers and brands more flexibility when it comes to running promotions. Now retailers can create one promotion to run across multiple sales channels - in-store and online. Brands have the ability to offer new advanced promotions including free shipping, net term extensions and target these based on a range of conditions such as product availability or previous order history. Now both retailers and brands have more tools for their promotional strategies.
  
• Growing a 1 Million+ Product Catalog to Support Retail Success
  Lightspeed's Supplier Network now includes over 1 million new products, offering retailers high-quality data from leading brands across key verticals such as pet, home & garden, and golf. This growth simplifies inventory management and enables retailers to meet customer demand with tailored, seamless shopping experience.
  
• Improved Workforce Management Capabilities with Homebase
  Lightspeed's timeclock is now integrated with Homebase , enabling flagship retail customers to streamline employee tracking and management. This integration helps reduce missed shifts, early clock-ins, and accidental overtime-saving time and simplifying operations.
  
• Enhanced Retail Inventory Control
  Through an enhanced collaboration between Cin7 Core and Lightspeed Retail, customers can access a cloud-based, automated, and real-time solution for managing a retailer's entire inventory lifecycle. The integration helps retailers automate data synchronization, streamlining stock levels, sales orders, purchases, and stock adjustments between both systems.
  
• Streamlined Special Order Fulfillment
  Lightspeed extends its capability to manage complex sales workflows, enhancing special order fulfillment for cashiers. This launch is tailored to provide a seamless experience for customers purchasing multiple items that require separate forms of fulfillment. Retailers can now easily identify which items the customer takes immediately versus those that need to be fulfilled later, simplifying operations and maximizing sales opportunities.
  
• More Tools to Showcase Product Catalog Online
  Lightspeed extended its online tools to help merchants showcase their products online to grow sales with more options to display the catalog and draw attention to key offerings, discounts, sale offers, and brands offered. Improve the customer experience on the online storefronts with subcategory navigation, ensuring consumers can quickly find the products they want.

Hospitality

• Modernizing Kitchen Operations with the New Kitchen Display System
  Lightspeed's KDS seamlessly connects front-of-house and back-of-house operations. Orders flow directly from the POS or Tableside into the kitchen for smooth execution.

Ranging from golf lessons and simulator bay bookings to pickleball court reservations, Lightspeed Scheduling allows golf operators to serve the growing customer demand for off-course golf activities at the club.
  
• Transforming Golf Operations with Landscapes Golf Management Partnership
  Landscapes Golf Management extended a multi-year partnership with Lightspeed earlier this year to deliver powerful tools that streamline operations and elevate the guest experience across 60+ properties in the Landscapes portfolio.
