Point of sale: Shopify, Square, Lightspeed, Ascend, Hike and Loyverse

Velobook pushes completed jobs into your point of sale so the sale lands where your reporting and payments live. Hire bookings and fittings travel the same road. Supported: Shopify, Square POS, Lightspeed (R-Series and X-Series), Ascend RMS, Hike and Loyverse. Money always settles directly to you.

Shopify

• A completed job is pushed to Shopify as an Order, marked paid if the customer paid online, or pending so you collect at the counter.
• Each new booking can also create a draft order the moment it lands, with the service and add-ons as line items, to charge at the till at pickup. Separate from the completed-job push: use either or both.
• Add received stock to Shopify puts booked-in deliveries back on your Shopify counts, matched on SKU. Off until you turn it on, it only ever adds units, and a store with more than one location picks a receiving location first. Leave it off if your team already books deliveries in to Shopify by hand.
• Shopify still owns the sale: its products, tax and reporting.
• Payment taken at booking runs through your connected payment provider; Shopify receives the resulting order.
• Install the Velobook app from the Shopify App Store, then manage the connection under Integrations → Payments & POS.
• Hire bikes too? The same connection can build your hire catalogue from your Shopify products and put a booking widget on each product page. See hire from your Shopify product pages.

Lightspeed

On Lightspeed X-Series and Lightspeed R-Series alike, a completed job lands as a parked sale on the till, ready to open and ring up when the customer collects.

1. 1In Integrations → Payments & POS, open the Lightspeed row for your series. X-Series asks for your store's domain (the bit before .retail.lightspeed.app); R-Series connects straight away. Approve on Lightspeed and you land back in Velobook.
2. 2Pick where sales land: the outlet on X-Series, or the Shop, Register, Employee and Tax Category on R-Series. Pushes stay paused until this is done. R-Series also offers a Payment Type, only needed if you close sales paid in Velobook.
3. 3Leave Dry-run mode on while you watch a few jobs go through, then turn it off.

Ascend RMS

A completed job is submitted as a websale to your Ascend location, and your Ascend stock feeds Velobook's Inventory. Connect from Integrations → Payments & POS.

Square

Marking a booking complete sends an open order to Square with the customer and service items filled in, and your till takes payment against it. Your Square item library and stock counts flow into Velobook.

1. 1In Integrations → Payments & POS, open Square and choose Connect Square POS. Approve the permissions on Square and land back here.
2. 2Pick a location. Every Square order is booked against one, so pushes stay paused until you choose. Any register at that location can pick the order up.
3. 3Leave Dry-run mode on while you watch a few jobs go through, then turn it off.

Hike

• The job pushes an unpaid invoice to your Hike register with the customer and service items pre-filled. Your till operator opens it when the customer arrives, adds anything extra, takes payment and finalises the sale
• Choose when that happens, on the POS panel: when you mark the job complete (the default), or when the job reaches a stage such as *Ready for pickup*. Take payment on your own register and the second one is what you want, so the sale is waiting at the till before you finish the job rather than after
• Your Hike catalogue and stock flow into Velobook
• Choose Connect Hike; Hike's own screen picks the store. Then choose an outlet and a register. If an outlet has one register, Velobook pins it. Pushes stay paused until both are set
• If you buy parts at a trade or member rate, point the connection at the Hike customer group that carries it, under Parts pricing on the Hike panel. Parts added from Hike then carry that group's price. Unset, a quote shows retail

Loyverse

Loyverse is the odd one out, and in a way that matters to your books: it has no held sale to ring up later. A finished job arrives as a completed, paid receipt under a payment type you choose, and your Loyverse stock feeds Velobook's Inventory.

1. 1In Loyverse: Settings, then Access tokens, and add one. Copy it.
2. 2In Integrations → Payments & POS, open Loyverse and paste the token. Velobook checks it with Loyverse before saving anything.
3. 3Pick the store the receipts belong to, and the payment type they are recorded under. Pushes stay paused until both are set. If your account has one of each, Velobook pins them for you.
4. 4Optional, and worth it if you ever finish a job before the customer pays: pick a second payment type for jobs not yet paid for. Most shops add one in Loyverse called On account. Leave it empty and those jobs go under the main type with a line on the receipt saying payment was not recorded.
5. 5Leave Dry-run mode on while you watch a few jobs go through, then turn it off.
