What is Lightspeed X-Series × Shopify integration?
A Lightspeed X-Series × Shopify integration gives your retail store one connected inventory workflow across in-store and online sales.
When an item sells in your physical store, SKU IQ drops the available stock in Shopify. When a customer places a Shopify order, SKU IQ updates Lightspeed X-Series so your POS inventory stays aligned. Supported product details, including title, description, price, color, and SKU, carry across from whichever system you choose as the primary source.
SKU IQ is a no-code connection layer between your existing Lightspeed X-Series and Shopify eCommerce. It is not a new POS, an ERP, or an inventory suite. Lightspeed X-Series stays your POS; Shopify stays your online store. Nothing migrates off either system, and you do not have to change how you sell.
Why retailers connect Lightspeed X-Series and Shopify
Stop overselling
A sale in-store updates Shopify stock, and an online order updates Lightspeed X-Series. Your available inventory stays aligned across both selling channels.
No double data entry
Update supported product fields in your primary system, such as title, description, price, color, or SKU, and SKU IQ carries those updates across according to the sync table above.
Keep systems you already use
SKU IQ is not a new POS, ERP, or inventory suite. Lightspeed X-Series remains your POS, Shopify remains your ecommerce store, and SKU IQ keeps them connected.
Two ways to unify your inventory
Once Lightspeed X-Series and Shopify are connected, you tell SKU IQ how products relate to each other. Most retailers use more than one route as they clean up and expand their catalogue.
Link existing items
Fastest way to start. SKU IQ scans both catalogues and matches items by title, SKU, or UPC. You review the matches and choose which products to link. Title matching works when spelling matches, so clean naming makes the process faster.
Push a catalogue across
Copy products from one platform to the other. SKU IQ can copy an item to the other platform and link it automatically. You can run this yourself in batches, or use a full SKU IQ migration for a larger catalogue.
What syncs between Lightspeed X-Series and Shopify
Orders sync into Lightspeed X-Series for record-keeping and inventory. Payment processing stays in Shopify.
SKU IQ is built for single-location retailers syncing one POS to one store. If you operate multiple locations, talk to SKU IQ about your setup before starting a trial.
What to expect during setup
You do not need developers and you do not need code. If your products already exist in both Lightspeed X-Series and Shopify, most retailers are syncing the same day.
Create your SKU IQ account
Select Shopify + Lightspeed X-Series.
Connect both platforms
Authorize both platforms through the guided flow. Your catalogues load in, and nothing is altered until you confirm what you want SKU IQ to do.
Run a link report
Run the link report. SKU IQ matches products by title, SKU, or UPC, then you confirm the matches.
Review unmatched items
Review unmatched items. Fix spelling differences when titles should match, or push the missing product across to the other platform.
Validate Sync
Validate the first sync with one or two products so you can see stock and product data move as expected.
Choose sync & go live
Set the primary system for product data and choose whether to turn on auto-push for new items.
Migrating a large catalogue
You can push products yourself by selecting up to 50 items at a time. Each batch takes roughly one hour, and batches run one at a time. This works well for smaller catalogues but can be slow once you get past a few hundred products.
A bulk push migrates the entire catalogue in one scheduled operation run by the SKU IQ team. If anything goes wrong, SKU IQ fixes it. The process needs no input from you after it is scheduled. Bulk pushes are quoted by catalogue size and scheduled through Support.
A bulk push is optional. On any paid plan, there is no limit on how many products can be pushed in total. A bulk push buys speed and a hands-off migration; it does not buy access.
Before you connect
Your Shopify plan must support inventory tracking and third-party apps. Your Lightspeed X-Series plan must support inventory tracking and third-party apps.
