Overview
Lightspeed is a restaurant point-of-sale (POS) system that integrates with Amenitiz so restaurant charges can be added to a guest's reservation and settled at checkout — including through AmenitizPay, so you don't have to ask for card details again. Activation has two parts: enable Lightspeed in the Amenitiz Marketplace, then configure Amenitiz as a payment method on the Lightspeed side.
Before you start
The integration only works with the Lightspeed K-series.
You need an active Lightspeed account. If you don't have one, contact our support team — we'll connect you with our dedicated Lightspeed agent who will help you set it up.
Lightspeed is available in countries including France, Switzerland, Morocco, and the French overseas territories.
