Lightspeed Payments is an embedded payment processor, meaning it communicates with Lightspeed ePOS to process payments. Transactions are automatically recorded in your ePOS system, saving time and reducing errors because it eliminates the need for manual entry. Embedded payments make for a better checkout experience for both your employees and customers. Plus, you have access to plenty of valuable info including batch settlements, reports and customer data.

With non-embedded payments, processors don't communicate with the ePOS system. Transaction data isn't recorded—you have to manually input information, making the checkout process more complex.

The following terminal models are currently supported:

Yes. With Pay at Table, restaurant owners can split the bill when the payment terminal displays the amount due and they can choose between the following options:

- Divide the bill unevenly. The terminal will ask for the amount of the first fraction.

To process a transaction with Lightspeed Payments & Pay at Table, you will need a payment terminal. Currently, Lightspeed is compatible with the following payment terminal:Castles S1F2-a state-of-the-art, portable touchscreen payment terminal with a built-in receipt printer.

With Pay at Table, it is possible to process payments at the table at the same time on several terminals. However, you cannot use multiple terminals to make payments simultaneously on the same account.

Tipping is possible with Pay at Table, but only for card payments. There is also a difference depending on the version of the application used on the active device.

There are two reports available for Lightspeed Payments merchants:

* Payment Transactions report. The Payment Transactions report provides an overview of all payment transactions made with Lightspeed Payments. Users can search for transactions by date, the last four digits of the card number, or payment ID.
* Settlements report. The Settlements report allows you to track when your transactions are processed and funded into your bank account.

You can also use reporting automation to generate and send daily Lightspeed Payments reports directly to your email. 


Your transaction and settlement reports are all in your Lightspeed ePOS, in the same place you run all your other standard reports from. Your deposits and batches are tracked in real-time, which makes reconciliation faster and easier.
