Frequently Asked Questions
Can you give me more information about Light Speed?
How do I integrate Light Speed with my ecommerce store?
Spark Shipping provides a pre-built Light Speed integration that works with Shopify, BigCommerce, Magento, WooCommerce, Amazon, eBay, Walmart Marketplace, and other platforms. To get started, create a Spark Shipping account, add Light Speed as a vendor using your API credentials or data feed details, then connect your ecommerce store. Once linked, product data, inventory, pricing, order routing, and tracking updates flow automatically — no custom development required.
What Light Speed product data does Spark Shipping sync?
Spark Shipping syncs the full Light Speed product catalog your dealer account is authorized for, including titles, descriptions, specifications, high-resolution images, UPCs, MPNs, brand and category data, and your dealer-specific pricing. All product data stays up to date automatically.
Does Spark Shipping keep Light Speed inventory and pricing in sync automatically?
Yes. Spark Shipping pulls live inventory levels and dealer pricing directly from Light Speed and pushes updates to your store on a scheduled interval. When a product goes out of stock or Light Speed changes wholesale cost or MAP pricing, your listings update automatically to prevent overselling and protect your margins.
Can Spark Shipping automate Light Speed order fulfillment and tracking?
Yes. When a customer places an order on your store, Spark Shipping captures it and submits a fulfillment request directly to Light Speed. Once Light Speed ships the order, tracking information is pulled back and pushed to your ecommerce platform automatically, so your customer receives a shipping notification without any manual work.
Can I sell Light Speed products alongside other suppliers?
Absolutely. Spark Shipping supports multiple vendors on a single store. If the same product is available from Light Speed and another supplier, you can link both to one listing. Spark Shipping's Intelligent Order Routing then automatically selects the supplier with the best price or closest warehouse to the customer's shipping address for each order.
How does Spark Shipping handle Light Speed pricing and profit margins?
Spark Shipping pulls your dealer cost and MAP pricing directly from Light Speed and applies your custom pricing rules to calculate retail prices. You can set fixed dollar markups, percentage margins, or tiered pricing structures. When Light Speed changes wholesale cost or MAP, your store prices adjust automatically.
