Lightspeed Commerce Integrates with Faire
Lightspeed Commerce — a provider of unified point-of-sale and commerce platforms for retail, hospitality, and golf businesses — has introduced a new integration with the B2B wholesale marketplace Faire. This move will allow Lightspeed Retail merchants to access over 100,000 brands directly within their existing system.
The Lightspeed Wholesale integration enables retailers to link their Faire accounts to the Lightspeed Retail platform, automatically syncing product information such as images, descriptions, variants, and cost data when orders are placed. This functionality is designed to eliminate the need for manual data entry and reconciliation across separate systems. It streamlines the process from product discovery to inventory management and eventual sale. The integration complements Lightspeed’s existing wholesale capabilities, including its NuORDER platform for established brands.
