A retailer running an online store, two physical sites and a warehouse system had stockouts, oversells and write-offs caused by mismatched counts. We built a two-way sync between the eCommerce platform, POS and back-office so SKUs, reorder points and order status stay aligned everywhere.
Read the full case studyFour restaurants across Melbourne, all on Lightspeed, and our bookkeeper was losing half her week reconciling with Xero. HELLO PEOPLE built a proper Lightspeed-to-Xero integration with per-venue P&L, tips separated and processing fees tracked cleanly. We can finally see which venue is actually making money.
Every Lightspeed integration company promises a smooth build. Here is the six-step structure we actually use. Discovery, data mapping, build, testing and go-live, then ongoing support once you are live. Venue by venue if needed.
Lightspeed POS integration across Restaurant (L-Series) and Retail (R-Series). We push sales, payments, tips, fees, refunds and inventory movements into Xero, MYOB or QuickBooks, then layer on multi-venue P&L, rostering data and BI dashboards on top. Every workflow is built on the official Lightspeed API.
Pricing depends on the systems involved, the volume of data and the exception cases. You get a fixed-price quote after a 15-minute scoping call. No hourly billing, no surprises, and multi-venue is priced per scope complexity, not per location.
Yes. Each Lightspeed location maps to a tracking category in Xero. Sales, payment splits, tips, processing fees, refunds and gift-card liabilities all flow across daily. Per-venue P&L, revenue comparison and expense tracking are standard inclusions for multi-site setups.
A single-venue integration takes 3 to 5 weeks. Multi-venue setups with inventory and labour cost dashboards typically take 6 to 10 weeks. Larger hospitality groups with more than 10 venues run in phases so each site goes live cleanly.
Yes. Tips, processing fees, card surcharges and cash rounding are each tracked in separate accounts. Staff tip liabilities sit in their own account for ATO compliance, and split-payment transactions are decomposed correctly.
Yes. Lightspeed sales combined with Deputy shift data gives you revenue per labour hour per venue. Peak-hour analysis, day-part breakdowns and labour cost percentage dashboards are the most requested reports for hospitality groups.
Yes. Gift card sales are recorded as liabilities. Redemptions are recorded as revenue. Outstanding gift card balances sit as a liability in your accounts, and loyalty balances stay consistent across venues.
Yes. We build Lightspeed Retail POS integration for national chains, including per-store P&L, catalogue governance, click-and-collect routing and channel-specific pricing. Rollouts happen store-by-store with the head office reporting live from day one.
