Hi. How can we help?

Setting up integrated payment types on Retail POS (X-Series)

Integrated payments are payments that Retail POS automatically pushes to the card terminal and receives an approval or decline response back to close the sale.

Retail POS integrates with a number of payment providers within different regions. Read below to find your local providers and how to add the payment type.

Add a payment type

To add a payment type:

  2. A drop-down menu will open and display the payment types available in your region. Add a new payment type from the drop down list
  3. Select the payment type you want to set up. Another window will open, asking if you have details related to the payment type you want to set up.
    • If you do not have an account, click Find out more to learn about using (payment type) with Lightspeed Retail.
    • If you do have the required information, click Set up Lightspeed Retail with merchant account details and terminals and Begin setup.

    These screens will differ based on the payment type you have chosen. Click the links in the payment types by region drop-down above for more information about the payment type you want to set up.

    Choose payment type and begin setup

  4. This will take you to a new page where you will then be able to set your payment type up and choose a name that will be displayed on your register.

Other payment types

Retail POS will create cash and other payment method payment types as a default.

Other payment types that will appear as standard buttons on your payment page (if enabled) include on-Account, layby, loyalty, and store credit.

You may also enable gift cards as an additional payment type to be displayed on your register.
