for Bike Shops
Comparing bike shop service software like Hubtiger? velobench is a service-management platform purpose-built for shops on Lightspeed Retail — branded online booking, digital work orders, waivers, webchat and SMS, and automated reminders, all synced to the POS you already use. Because it lives inside Lightspeed, you enter each work order once instead of keying it into a separate app and your POS — and it runs at about 40% of Hubtiger's cost. Here's what to look for when you evaluate the options.
velobench is built around Lightspeed Retail (R-Series). Bookings, customers, and work orders sync both ways, so the service counter and the POS stay in lockstep.
Customers book on a page with your shop's name on it, and automated reminders bring service customers back on schedule.
Capture service and e-bike waivers digitally and keep them attached to the work order — important as e-bike repairs grow.
Because work orders live in Lightspeed, there's no second system to feed. Your team isn't keying the same job into a standalone app and then your POS, so nothing falls out of sync.
velobench runs at about 40% of what Hubtiger charges — roughly 60% less a month — because it builds on the Lightspeed data you already pay for instead of running a separate platform.
Connect Lightspeed and you're live in under 10 minutes. No data import, and everything runs in the browser with optional Chrome extensions.
