It is similar to tennis meaning replaying the point. However, there is a difference regarding the serving. In tennis, with the let you have to serve again if the service is good. In badminton, the returner has to play the point and return the serve if the serve is good despite hitting the top of the net on the way across the net. In this sense, there is no let with serving. The LET rules are : LETS 14.1 ‘Let’ shall be called by the umpire, or by a player (if there is no umpire), to halt play. 14.2 It shall be a ‘let”, if: 14.2.1 the server serves before the receiver is ready (Law 9.5); 14.2.2 during service, the receiver and the server are both faulted; 14.2.3 after the service is returned, the shuttle is: 14.2.3.1 caught on the net and remains suspended on its top, or 14.2.3.2 after passing over the net is caught in the net; 14.2.4 during play, the shuttle disintegrates and the base completely separates from the rest of the shuttle; 14.2.5 in the opinion of the umpire, play is disrupted or a player of the opposing side is distracted by a coach; 14.2.6 a line judge is unsighted and the umpire is unable to make a decision; or 14.2.7 any unforeseen or accidental situation has occurred. Good luck and have fun. There is a let in Badminton. It is similar to tennis meaning replaying the point.

It allows for the player to serve again rather than lose service. In badmington, if the shuttlecock hits the net but lands in bounds it is still a bad serve.
