LIGHTSPEED INTEGRATION Γ NEXREPLY
Lightspeed has your webshop data. NexReply ensures customers get the right answers.
Lightspeed knows everything about your orders. But as soon as customers ask questions, that information is spread across multiple systems. NexReply brings it together. It reads customer enquiries, retrieves live data from the Lightspeed eCom API, fulfilment systems and carriers, and immediately turns it into an accurate answer.
Not a chatbot. An existing operational platform that automates your Lightspeed communications in a controlled way.
Automate your Lightspeed online shop customer service with NexReply
Through direct, deep integration with the Lightspeed eCom API, NexReply retrieves real-time customer and order details. There is no longer any need to search manually for shipping information, payments or order logs.
Always accurate order data
NexReply communicates directly with the Lightspeed API. Order data, address validations and return statuses are read directly and translated into clear, personalised responses.
Trigger automatic actions
Not just answers, but actions too. Through API connections, NexReply can perform actions directly in Lightspeed, such as putting orders on hold or verifying duplicate orders.
No costly time wasted
Your support team no longer has to switch constantly between your inbox and the Lightspeed admin panel. This saves up to 4 minutes per incoming ticket.

What happens when a Lightspeed customer asks a question
Scenario: A customer emails: 'Where is my order?'
1
Match customer & order
NexReply immediately matches the sender to the correct Lightspeed order, even with multiple active orders.

The platform retrieves the current status: is the parcel packed, in transit or handed over to the delivery company?
3
Retrieve carrier data
NexReply checks the carrier's live Track & Trace data for any current delays.
4
Analyse events
Are there exceptions such as partial deliveries, backorders or failed delivery attempts?
5
Generate response
A personalised, factually correct response is prepared in your unique brand voice.
Support
Typical Lightspeed questions you automate
Instead of standard templates, NexReply configures dynamic responses based on the specific customer enquiry.
Where is my order?
Including current Track & Trace, carrier status and any reported delays.
Order not yet shipped
Insight into fulfilment status, processing time and any stock problems.
Returns and refunds
Status updates on returns and refunds directly through Lightspeed.
Partial deliveries received
Clear communication about partial deliveries, subsequent deliveries or temporary backorders.
Change or cancel an order
Put the order on hold directly in Lightspeed to prevent shipping errors.
Eligibility for discounts or promotions

Events & Actions
Automate customer service based on real events
NexReply responds to what is actually happening in your webshop operations, not just to isolated text patterns.
Lightspeed shop events
Order created and paid in Lightspeed
Fulfilment started or shipped via PostNL
Track & Trace active but no physical movement
Return registered but not yet received

INFRASTRUCTURE OVER TEMPLATES
The Vision
Not a chatbot. Infrastructure on top of Lightspeed.
Traditional chatbots guess what a customer means and produce a standard text. NexReply actually resolves the problem behind the scenes.
The traditional chatbot
Often misunderstands context, cannot perform actions in Lightspeed and usually still leaves a frustrated customer wanting to speak to a human agent.
NexReply Integration
Connected to your live systems. Performs controlled actions directly (change an address, retrieve refunds) and guarantees 100% accurate responses based on your current order data.
Ecosystem
Works with your existing stack
NexReply is not a replacement for your helpdesk or e-commerce tools, but the connecting factor between them.
PostNL
Track & trace and live delivery status available directly for customer responses.
NexReply connects to virtually any system where customer data is available via the API.

A Dutch outdoor brand sells through Lightspeed eCom. In peak season, the team receives hundreds of customer enquiries daily, mainly about deliveries of panniers, camping equipment and rainwear. Manually switching between Lightspeed and inboxes took hours of work every day.
With NexReply, Lightspeed messages are automatically linked to order data, enriched with shipping status from PostNL/DHL and answered in the brand's house style. The team now only handles return disputes and product complaints. Customer satisfaction increased significantly.
