Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) MCP by usefulapi

Work with your Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) store (formerly Vend) from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client — look up products, stock per outlet, sales, customers, suppliers, stock orders, registers and staff; get a sales report for a period in one call; create and update customers, set prices and set stock levels. Hosted, no local install: connect with your Lightspeed Retail account over OAuth.

Live endpoint: https://lightspeed-x-series.usefulapi.io/mcp · Homepage: https://usefulapi.io/lightspeed-x-series

Connect

  • Claude (claude.ai, Desktop): open Customize → Connectors, click + Add → Add custom connector, and paste https://lightspeed-x-series.usefulapi.io/mcp.
  • Claude Code: claude mcp add --transport http lightspeed-x-series https://lightspeed-x-series.usefulapi.io/mcp, then run /mcp to log in.
  • VS Code: Add to VS Code.
  • Cursor and other clients: add the URL as a remote MCP server:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "lightspeed-x-series": {
      "url": "https://lightspeed-x-series.usefulapi.io/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Add only the URL. Do not add an Authorization header or an API key to the client config: the server signs you in with OAuth, and you sign in with your Lightspeed Retail (X-Series) account.

Step-by-step setup, where to find your credentials, and FAQ: https://usefulapi.io/lightspeed-x-series/

On first connect you'll be sent to Lightspeed to sign in and approve access for your store; no API keys to paste. You can remove the access any time in your Lightspeed Retail back office. One subscription covers one store account.

New to MCP?

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.

An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
