Its roles close in a median of 34 days. It measures how much of what this employer publishes turns into a real, finite search - not the employer as a workplace. How the index is computed
Overview
Lightspeed Commerce is a Canadian company founded in Montreal in 2005 that sells point-of-sale and commerce software to independent retailers and restaurants, together with the payment processing that now generates most of its revenue. Its strategic shift has been from charging software subscriptions to taking a share of the transactions running through that software, which raises revenue per customer considerably but ties it to their trading volumes. Headquartered in Montreal and listed in Toronto and New York, it grew through a long acquisition programme and has since been consolidating those platforms and narrowing its focus to retail and hospitality.

Products
Supplier Network
A catalogue connecting retailers to wholesale suppliers for ordering and replenishment. It puts the company into the purchasing side of a retailer's business rather than only the selling side, which deepens the relationship.
lightspeedhq.com
Lightspeed Capital
Merchant cash advances underwritten on the transaction history the platform already sees. Lending against observed daily takings is far more accurate than assessing a small retailer's filed accounts after the fact.
lightspeedhq.com
Lightspeed Payments
Integrated card processing that now supplies the majority of company revenue. Moving customers from software subscriptions onto payments raises revenue per location sharply but also links it to their sales volumes.
lightspeedhq.com
Restaurant POS
Ordering, table management and kitchen display systems for hospitality venues. Restaurants have entirely different workflow requirements from shops, which is why the two products are developed and sold separately.
lightspeedhq.com
Retail POS
Point-of-sale, inventory and multi-location management for independent retailers. Inventory depth is what distinguishes it from simpler card terminals, since a shop with thousands of stock lines cannot run on a payment app.
