Hi there

I have two clients who are having great difficulty integrating VEND Lightspeed and Klaviyo. 

Here’s what they have tried:

Client One:

  • spoken with Lightspeed and they’re not planning on creating an integration any time soon for Lightspeed X-Series. 
  • Tried using Storetasker to no avail
  • Spoke to my local web dev who thought he’d be able to do something through Zapier - he couldn’t. 
  • Put something on UpWork and only one guy got back to me, with a three week and US$1500 (approx) quote. 
     

Client Two:

My only work around… and note its messy… is this:

Vend - Link to mail chimp (free account) - then to Zapier - into Klaviyo.

Although it works, a straight integration would be nice. 

 

Does anyone have any suggestions or recommendations of developers who can create a straight integration from Vend to Klaviyo? 

Hey @emailbydesign 

Welcome to the Klaviyo Community! If you need help from a developer please check out or Agency portal . It contains a list of all the agencies who are capable of helping your customers develop their custom API for VEND. 


Hello emailbydesign … I was wondering if you have had any further luck with your integrations from Vend POS (now Lightspeed X Series) to Klaviyo.  I have spoken with them many times over the last 8 years and Vend and Lightspeed are hopeless in adopting this approach.  They recommend Marsello everytime and that's pointless.

I picked up on your thinking with Mailchimp and maybe that's the way to go.  The tricky thing is that every Shopify sale goes in Vend and I have to make sure i dont get all that data coming back into Klaviyo again.  At least with using the Mailchimp approach I can use it as an interim filter before a sync to Klaviyo.

All im really after from Vend (lightspeed) is New Customer name, email address and any ongoing Placed Orders, $ amount and Product so I can get a better email auto approach across both the online Shopify world and instore with Vend POS.  You would think Vend / Lightspeed would think this is a good idea too!  

I did discover this too … but a bit hesitant  https://www.appypie.com/connect/apps/vend/integrations/klaviyo

 

Keen to see if you have any new thoughts. Cheers

 

 


Actually - just shelved the Mailchimp idea as it only syncs the following. Sigh

 

Information synced from Retail POS to Mailchimp:

  • Email
  • First name
  • Last name
  • Marketing and Promotional Email status (unsubscribed / subscribed)

I’m also looking for a solution for this.

 

I originally set up a API workflow with Pipedream that was pushing through all the emails but Pipedream just made Klaviyo a premium account so now was hundreds of pounds a year if i update the flow to the new APIs.

 

Klaviyo and Vend PLEASE integrate!


Indeed, looking for a solution as well. Please note that Lightspeed will move everyone to the X-series and stop developing the R-series. Futurewise a Klaviyo and Lightspeed integration will be needed. Rather sooner than later. 

Big opportunity for Klaviyo as well to be listed on the X-series and attract new customers.

Did you try this? We are looking to set this up now.


I have this need too.

I recently found this > https://klavx.framer.website/.
I’m attempting to engage them to find out more.
In concept it looks good.

I’m going to have a look at the AppyPie automation tool too - I tried to pull this off with Make.com before but struggled.
Edit : They only have annual billing - I’m skipping.


Did anyone go live with https://klavx.framer.website/. or with https://www.appypieautomate.ai/integrate/apps/vend/integrations/klaviyo

The latter looks like the cleaner option but wanted to hear from someone who has experience.

Thank you

  • Hey Ben, we originally called it Klavx, but then decided we wanted to expand to other areas and be the POS to Klavyio experts. We know Klaviyo (in beta) and Lightspeed will bring out their own intergrations, but ours is custom designed with the business owner in mind, so we have all the advanced features the basic intergrations wont have. Our new site is called https://usegather.com.au/ and it has:
    - 2 way sync between Klaviyo and Lightspeed
    - Profiles, product, orders and events sycyed in real time.
    - Custom mapping - locations, loyalty, etc.
    - Sync to different Klaviyo lists and option on that, like historical data flag, skip profiles with no marketing, no sales, etc.
    - We have reports and analtyics
    - We have a cool update that can create a review flow for you and put your lightspeed customers straight in when they purchase in store.
    - We have a custom AI that looks at your klaviyo, lightspeed and Shopify and give you recommendations of things that push the needle.

    Our biggest difference is we are small 2, team people and we support our customers. So if you have an idea, we implement it. Reach out.
