# Verified revenue from Lemon Squeezy

> Show verified MRR or 30-day sales from Lemon Squeezy on your page, with a check mark and a revenue chart. Connect with an API key in a minute. Free.

Connect your Lemon Squeezy store and your page shows MRR from active subscriptions, or the last 30 days of orders and renewals, with a check mark.

## Connect in about a minute

1. In your project in the makerhandle editor, choose **Lemon Squeezy** under revenue. The button opens Lemon Squeezy's API settings.
2. Click **+** next to **API keys**, name it `makerhandle` and create it.
3. Copy the key. Lemon Squeezy shows it only once.
4. Paste it. If your account has more than one store, add the store ID or its address too.

## What we show

- With active subscriptions: **MRR** from those subscriptions.
- Otherwise: the **last 30 days of orders and renewals, net of refunds**, which suits digital products and one-time licenses.

The figure refreshes every few hours, gets a check mark on your page and the [leaderboard](https://makerhandle.com/features/leaderboard), and comes with a revenue history chart of up to a year of monthly figures. Not sure which number to show? Read [MRR vs last 30 days](https://makerhandle.com/blog/mrr-vs-revenue-which-to-show).

## About the key

Lemon Squeezy API keys cannot be limited to reading, so we say so plainly: we only ever read with it, active subscriptions for MRR and orders and renewals for the 30-day figure. The key is encrypted at rest and never shown again. Delete it in Lemon Squeezy and access ends at once.

Lemon Squeezy is a [merchant of record](https://makerhandle.com/glossary/merchant-of-record), and announced in 2024 that it had been acquired by Stripe. The connection reads Lemon Squeezy's own API either way.

We only ever read with the key. Lemon Squeezy keys cannot be restricted to read-only, so you can delete the key at any time to cut access.

### I have several stores. Which one is shown?

Add the store ID or address when you connect. Each makerhandle project can connect its own store.

### Is it free?

Yes. Verified revenue works on the free plan as well as Pro.
