Lightspeed Payments for Golf is an expansion of the company’s integrated payments tool that streamlines payments for both merchants and customers, according to a press release on Wednesday (July 13).
Integrating with Lightspeed gives merchants expanded insights into the details of their business as well as what their customers are buying when and with what method of payment. The system aims to save merchants time by giving them everything they need with just a single vendor with embedded payments.

The company launched Lightspeed Retail in May to combine advanced POS, payments and eCommerce into one platform, PYMNTS reported at the time. Lightspeed Retail leverages the power of headless commerce and new integrations with an innovative interface.
“Payment processing has historically been fragmented and costly for golf operators. Managing a business comes with a myriad of responsibilities, and operators see value in being able to consolidate where their services come from. Lightspeed provides a complementary set of tools and services that alleviate these pain points for modern golf courses and resorts,” said David Hope, Lightspeed General Manager, Golf.

The integration is intended to give omnichannel merchants the ability to process payments fast, whether online or in-person. The integration with Lightspeed Payments also allows for a single platform to provide analytics, reporting, reconciliation, and chargeback resources for disputes.
“This expansion equips our golf merchants with the same caliber of payment technology available to major global enterprises from directly within their Lightspeed commerce platform. This gives them more data, resources, and most importantly, time back in their day to focus on their business and their passion,” said Lightspeed General Manager, Payments Jona Georgiou.
