Initial Setup ⚡

1. Create a LemonSqueezy account

💡 Tip: Find Product IDs in LemonSqueezy Dashboard under Products → Select Product → Variants

Adding Subscribe Buttons 🔘

Use the getSubscribeUrl helper to create subscription links:

import getSubscribeUrl, { PlanType, PlanProvider } from '@/lib/plans/getSubscribeUrl'

function PricingCard({ plan }) {
  // Monthly subscription with 7-day trial
  const monthlyUrl = getSubscribeUrl({
    codename: plan.codename,
    type: PlanType.MONTHLY,
    provider: PlanProvider.LEMON_SQUEEZY,
    trialPeriodDays: 7
  })

  // Yearly subscription with 14-day trial
  const yearlyUrl = getSubscribeUrl({
    codename: plan.codename,
    type: PlanType.YEARLY,
    provider: PlanProvider.LEMON_SQUEEZY,
    trialPeriodDays: 14
  })

  // One-time payment
  const onetimeUrl = getSubscribeUrl({
    codename: plan.codename,
    type: PlanType.ONETIME,
    provider: PlanProvider.LEMON_SQUEEZY
  })

  return (
    <div className="pricing-card">
      <h2>{plan.name}</h2>
      <div className="buttons">
        {plan.hasMonthlyPricing && (
          <Link href={monthlyUrl}>
            <Button>Subscribe Monthly</Button>
          </Link>
        )}
        {plan.hasYearlyPricing && (
          <Link href={yearlyUrl}>
            <Button>Subscribe Yearly</Button>
          </Link>
        )}
        {plan.hasOnetimePricing && (
          <Link href={onetimeUrl}>
            <Button>Buy Lifetime</Button>
          </Link>
