help Lightspeed eCom FAQ

Does Lightspeed eCom synchronize inventory with a physical store?

Yes, when it is connected to a compatible Lightspeed Retail POS setup, online and in-store products and stock can be managed together. The exact synchronization workflow differs between Lightspeed's E-Series and C-Series products, so merchants need documentation for their specific eCom generation.

What is the difference between Lightspeed eCom E-Series and C-Series?

They are separate Lightspeed commerce platforms with different administration interfaces, integrations, and setup procedures. E-Series grew from Ecwid technology, while C-Series is the older Lightspeed eCom platform used by many established merchants.

Can Lightspeed eCom sell through Amazon, eBay, and Google Shopping?

Lightspeed promotes multichannel connections that can place products on marketplaces and shopping channels including Amazon, eBay, Walmart, and Google Shopping. Availability depends on the merchant's country, eCom version, plan, and any required marketplace account.

How does Lightspeed eCom compare with Shopify for a retail store?

Lightspeed's strongest fit is often a merchant already using Lightspeed Retail POS and wanting inventory tied closely to physical locations. Shopify has its own POS and a very large app ecosystem, so the practical choice depends on which point-of-sale system, payment setup, and integrations the store already uses.
