What is LemonStand?
LemonStand is a Singapore storefront builder for social sellers. Merchants get a mobile-first store link like yourshop.lemonstand.net with cart, fulfilment dates, and dynamic PayNow QR checkout. Buyers pay via PayNow; money goes straight to the seller’s bank. LemonStand charges 0% platform transaction fees.
How does PayNow checkout work on LemonStand?
On LemonStand, each order generates a dynamic PayNow QR with the exact amount, payment reference, and merchant details. The buyer scans and pays with their bank app. LemonStand does not charge buyers with cards or Stripe — buyers pay PayNow only.
Does LemonStand charge transaction fees?
No. LemonStand charges 0% platform transaction fees on every sale. Customers pay via PayNow, which transfers money directly to your bank account with no LemonStand commission. You only pay the LemonStand subscription (from S$3.90 per week). Competitor platforms typically list separate transaction or processing fees on their public pricing pages — see LemonStand vs Shopify and LemonStand vs HitPay.
How much does LemonStand cost?
LemonStand is S$3.90 per week (billed every 4 weeks), or S$149 per year. There are 0% platform transaction fees. Buyers pay PayNow; LemonStand subscription billing uses Stripe for sellers only.
Can I use LemonStand to sell on Instagram / WhatsApp?
Yes. LemonStand is built for Singapore social sellers on Instagram, WhatsApp, TikTok, and Telegram. Share your store link (like yourshop.lemonstand.net) in your bio or chat so buyers browse, order, and pay with PayNow — without chasing DM screenshots.
How is LemonStand different from Shopify?
LemonStand is a PayNow-first storefront for Singapore micro-merchants: 0% platform transaction fees, dynamic PayNow QR per order, and pricing from S$3.90 per week. Shopify is a full global ecommerce suite; its fees and payment options typically vary by plan and region on Shopify’s publicly listed pricing. See LemonStand vs Shopify.
How is LemonStand different from HitPay?
LemonStand focuses on a simple Singapore social-seller storefront with native dynamic PayNow QR checkout and 0% platform transaction fees (subscription from S$3.90 per week). HitPay is a broader Singapore payments and online-store product; transaction fees and plans are typically listed on HitPay’s public pricing. See LemonStand vs HitPay.
Do I need a business registration (UEN) to use LemonStand?
No. You do not need a UEN to start selling on LemonStand. PayNow checkout can use a Singapore mobile number or a UEN as the PayNow proxy. Choose the option that matches how you receive PayNow in your bank app.
How do I get paid? How fast is settlement?
Buyers pay PayNow on each LemonStand order. Money goes straight to the seller’s bank account — LemonStand does not hold sales funds like a payment gateway. PayNow settlement is typically instant once the buyer’s bank completes the transfer.
What payment methods do my customers use?
On LemonStand, customers pay with PayNow only — via the dynamic QR on the order page. There is no card checkout for buyers. Stripe is used only for seller subscription billing to LemonStand, not for buyer payments.
Can I customize how my store looks?
Yes. On LemonStand you pick a curated storefront vibe (visual theme) and edit your content — products, hero, and fulfilment. Vibe applies to the public storefront only. LemonStand is not a full theme builder or Shopify-style design studio.
Is LemonStand only for Singapore?
Yes. LemonStand is built exclusively for Singapore sellers and PayNow checkout. Storefronts run on lemonstand.net subdomains and are aimed at Singapore social sellers and micro-merchants.
