Stripe Acquires Lemon Squeezy
Lemon Squeezy Team (via Hacker News):
In 2020, when the world gave us lemons, we decided to make lemonade. We imagined a world where selling digital products would be as simple as opening a lemonade stand. We dreamed of a platform that would take the pain out of selling globally.
Tax headaches, fraud prevention, handling chargebacks, license key management, and file delivery, among other things, are complicated.

Going forward, our mission remains the same: make selling digital products easy-peasy.
With Stripe’s help, we’ll continue to improve the merchant of record offering, bolstering billing support, building an even more intuitive customer experience, and more.
