Lightspeed Commerce (NYSE: LSPD) (TSX: LSPD) CEO, Dax Dasilva: “Lightspeed: a True One-Stop Commerce Platform”
“…As economies reopen around the world and new business creation accelerates, we believe Lightspeed’s one-stop commerce platform remains a crucial lifeline for independent businesses. Our goal is to help them simplify their operations, provide them unparalleled opportunities to scale and equip them to deliver exceptional customer experiences. As they step into a new world of commerce forever altered by the COVID-19 crisis, both the traditional challenges they have faced, as well as the new customer expectations they will seek to meet will be best solved by Lightspeed solutions. From the customary complexities of supply chain management and accounting to the new demands of online ordering and contactless payments, Lightspeed is the technology that will ignite businesses everywhere…”

“…We continue to see great opportunities. Payments adoption can go higher. Delivering a unified solution in retail and hospitality should allow for greater software adoption amongst our customer base. Our capital business is still very much in its infancy and the potential from the B2B side with NuORDER and our supplier network has not yet even begun to impact our top line. And finally, once we close our proposed acquisition of Ecwid, we believe we can help our SMB customers to fully recognize the potential of omnichannel commerce. There remains a lot of heavy lifting and long hours ahead but the potential for Lightspeed as a true one-stop commerce platform has never been greater and the probability of success has in my mind never been higher.”
