A smooth checkout can be the cherry on top of a great dining experience.
Cater to your customer's needs with these quick and easy workflows!
With Lightspeed, splitting orders by product, price or number of guests lets customers pay the way they want to pay, without slowing down service. Merging orders is quick too, so your staff can easily free up tables when guests move.
What's in this guide:
Splitting Orders
Split by price is useful when a guest needs to use different payment methods or if a guest wants to pay a specific amount.
- From POS, select Checkout
- Select Split Payment
- Select the current total
- Enter an amount
- Choose an amount to Checkout
Split by product helps when guests want to pay for specific products, whether it be what they ordered or picking up the drinks as well.
- From POS, select Checkout
- Select Split Payment
- Select Split by product
- Select products from the left panel
- Select Checkout
Split by the number of guests is great for when guests are happy to split evenly. You won’t need a calculator or to be great at maths to quickly work out how much each guest needs to pay.
- From POS, select Checkout
- Select Split Payment
- Select Split
Each time you select Checkout the total will be divided evenly
Merging Orders
Sometimes guests need to move tables, like when they are having a few drinks at the bar while they wait for their table. With Lightspeed you and your staff can quickly merge whole orders or individual items, so misplaced orders can easily be corrected too.
