Showroom provides retailers with a sleek online presence that highlights real-time inventory and brand storytelling, all without the challenges of eCommerce.

MONTREAL, Sept. 29, 2025 /CNW/ – Lightspeed Commerce Inc. (NYSE: LSPD) (TSX: LSPD) (“Lightspeed” or the “Company“), the unified omnichannel platform powering ambitious retail and hospitality businesses in over 100 countries,  today announced the launch of Showroom, supported by AI and Lightspeed technology, designed for physical retailers who want a compelling online presence without committing to eCommerce.

For many local businesses, managing a full online store does not fit their model. Yet having no digital footprint risks losing customers before they ever walk through the door. Lightspeed’s Showroom bridges that gap by providing retailers with an easy to navigate site setup supported by AI, tools that highlight their products, real-time inventory, and brand story without enabling online transactions.

“Selling online isn’t right for everyone, but that doesn’t mean retailers should disappear in the digital age,” said Dax Dasilva, Founder and CEO of Lightspeed. “With Showroom, brick-and-mortar businesses can showcase their unique in-store experience while offering the digital touchpoints today’s customers expect.”

Built for Store-First Retailers

Showroom is designed for businesses with strong local customer bases and a focus on in-person shopping. By surfacing their assortment and story online, retailers can attract new shoppers, support loyal customers, and drive in-store visits without the overhead and complexity of eCommerce operations.

Setup is not just fast, but intuitively supported by AI and refined by Lightspeed. Retailers complete a brief onboarding survey, combined with their Lightspeed Retail product data, and Showroom automatically creates a custom-branded website and catalog. Merchants can then fine-tune the look and content with simple, easy-to-use tools.

Key features include:

  • A professionally designed, mobile-ready website
  • Automatic catalog creation and setup from Lightspeed Retail product data
  • Minimal setup, with AI managing the heavy lifting
  • Real-time visibility into in-store inventory for consumers
  • Seamless scalability into full eCommerce when the business is ready

With Showroom, retailers can confidently take their first step online knowing they will have the tools to expand into eCommerce at the right time.

Lightspeed continues to deliver innovations that solve real-world merchant challenges. While many competitors may offer AI tools for online selling or catalog creation, Lightspeed combines these capabilities in a single, purpose-built solution for physical retailers.

“This is not just about going digital, it is about giving retailers modern tools to compete on their own terms,” Dasilva added. “Showroom empowers them with a beautiful, data-driven website without forcing them into a model that does not fit.”
