About Merchant OS

MerchantOS was a cloud-based point-of-sale and retail management system, widely used by specialty retailers such as bike shops, that handled checkout, inventory, and customer management. After Lightspeed acquired it in 2013, the product was folded into Lightspeed's cloud POS line and rebranded (Lightspeed Cloud, then Lightspeed Retail/R-Series). The current Lightspeed Retail platform serves retail, restaurant, and golf businesses across 100+ countries with POS, inventory, payments, and analytics. It is aimed at small-to-midsize and growing brick-and-mortar merchants.
