How to Sell Digital Products from Your Lovable App

Add Lemon Squeezy to your Lovable app to sell digital products, courses, or downloads with zero backend complexity.

Before you start

✓A Lovable account with an existing app
✓A Lemon Squeezy account with a product created
✓Your Lemon Squeezy API key

Step by step

Create a product in Lemon Squeezy

Go to your Lemon Squeezy dashboard and create a product with pricing. Copy the checkout URL.

# Lemon Squeezy → Products → + New Product
# Name: Your Product
# Price: $49 (one-time) or $19/month
# Copy the Checkout URL

Create a sales page

Ask Lovable to build a product landing page with a buy button.

Paste this into Lovable:

Create a product sales page with:
1. A hero section with product name, tagline, and price
2. Feature list with icons
3. Social proof section with testimonials
4. A large 'Buy Now — $49' button that links to the Lemon Squeezy checkout URL
5. A FAQ section
6. Clean, modern design with good typography

Add the checkout overlay

Instead of redirecting, you can embed the Lemon Squeezy checkout as an overlay.

Paste this into Lovable:

Add the Lemon Squeezy JavaScript embed to the app:
1. Add <script src='https://app.lemonsqueezy.com/js/lemon.js' defer></script> to the head
2. Change the Buy button to use class 'lemonsqueezy-button' and set href to the checkout URL
3. This opens the checkout as an overlay without leaving the page

Handle the post-purchase redirect

After purchase, Lemon Squeezy redirects to your success URL. Create that page.

Paste this into Lovable:

Create a /purchase-success page that:
1. Shows a thank you message with confetti animation
2. Provides a download link or access instructions
3. Has a button to go to the dashboard
4. Looks celebratory and on-brand

Set up the webhook for delivery

Use Lemon Squeezy webhooks to grant access or deliver files after purchase.

Paste this into Lovable:

Create a Supabase Edge Function called 'lemon-webhook' that:
1. Receives Lemon Squeezy webhook events
2. On 'order_created' event, extracts the customer email
3. Grants the user access in the database (set has_purchased = true)
4. Returns 200 to acknowledge
