Follow one Lightspeed sale

For businesses with a Squarespace site out front and a Lightspeed register in the shop. Squarespace announces orders straight away but not stock you edit yourself, and its 60-character SKU is the tighter of the two.

What to know before you connect

Inventory limit

Lightspeed marks it shipped, without the number

Lightspeed records a sale as fulfilled but does not keep a carrier or tracking number against it. We mark it shipped and the number stays visible in QuickSync.

Manual control

Listings do not publish to Squarespace or Lightspeed on their own

Copying a listing from Squarespace to Lightspeed (or the other way) always waits for you to look at it. Stock is the only thing that moves on its own, and only once you have turned it on.

Speed

Orders arrive at once; your own edits wait

The two paths through Squarespace run at different speeds.

A sale on either side reaches the other in about a second: Squarespace announces its orders immediately and so does the register. The slower path is stock you edit by hand inside Squarespace, which it tells no one about; we pick that up on our next look, a couple of minutes later.

In practice that means recounts belong in one place. Adjust the number in QuickSync or at the register and both sides carry it; adjust it inside Squarespace and it arrives on the next check.

The details

Sixty characters, and a sale marked shipped

Squarespace connects with a key, and Lightspeed keeps no tracking number.

Squarespace connects differently from the register: you generate an API key in Squarespace and paste it into QuickSync, and nothing on the site changes until you switch sync on. The shared SKU has to fit Squarespace’s 60 characters, the tighter side of this pair.

Tracking goes to the Squarespace order as normal. Lightspeed marks its own sales fulfilled without keeping the number, so shipping detail for register sales stays in QuickSync.

Questions people ask about this pair

How do I connect Squarespace to Lightspeed?

You generate an API key in Squarespace and paste it into QuickSync. You sign in to Lightspeed X-Series and approve QuickSync for the outlet you want connected. Then match products by SKU, choose which shop holds the true count on day one and turn the sync on. Keep SKUs within 60 characters, Squarespace’s limit.

Does Squarespace integrate with Lightspeed?

Not directly: neither offers a built-in link. QuickSync sits between them, matching items by SKU (60 characters or fewer, Squarespace’s limit) and keeping both sides in step automatically.

How does the Squarespace connection work?

You generate an API key in Squarespace and paste it into QuickSync; the register connects by signing in to Lightspeed X-Series. Nothing is written to either side until you turn sync on, so you can review what matched first.

Do I have to re-list my Squarespace products on Lightspeed?

No. We match your existing Squarespace and Lightspeed listings by SKU, and hand you a short list of whatever we could not match. You can also copy a listing from one side to the other if you want it in both places; that step always waits for you.

Can I charge a different price on Lightspeed?

Yes. Set a rule once for Lightspeed: a percentage, a fixed uplift, or a price you type yourself. We apply it whenever the price changes, and nothing forces Squarespace and Lightspeed to the same number.

Does the tracking number go back to both shops?

On Lightspeed we mark the sale shipped, but Lightspeed does not keep the carrier or tracking number, so that detail stays visible in QuickSync. The other side gets the full number when it accepts one.

Does a Squarespace order get recreated on Lightspeed?

No. The order stays on Squarespace. We pull it into your one QuickSync list next to your Lightspeed orders so you pack from one place, without creating a duplicate Lightspeed order for it.

What happens if a buyer cancels or I refund them on Squarespace or Lightspeed?

A refund alone does not restock an item. When the originating platform reports a stock increase, QuickSync propagates the updated quantity between Squarespace and Lightspeed.

Which plan do I need for Squarespace and Lightspeed?

Lite covers Squarespace and Lightspeed. Lite is $19 a month for two shops and holds 1,000 items, with up to eight connected integrations. You would move up a plan for catalogue size, and your bill goes up by another $19 if you connect a third shop.
