This adjustment signals your intent to monetize your Notion content through paid subscriptions.

Step 3: Configure Lemon Squeezy in Sotion

  1. In the Sotion dashboard, a new menu item for Lemon Squeezy will appear after saving your changes.
  1. Click on this menu item to access the configuration settings.

      • subscription_resumed
      • subscription_expired
      • subscription_paused
      • subscription_unpaused
  1. Save the webhook. This ensures Lemon Squeezy communicates with Sotion regarding membership updates.

  1. Provide a name for your checkout link, reflecting the product or subscription in Lemon Squeezy.
  1. Specify the product's price and customize the button text, defaulting to "Sign In" if no preference.
  1. Obtain the Checkout Link and Product ID for your offering from Lemon Squeezy. This is found under the "Share" option of your product settings.

  1. In the Sotion dashboard, ensure the payment link for your product is turned on. This activation allows new members to be added to Sotion when a payment is made.
  1. Refresh your custom domain to see the changes. Visitors will now encounter a sign-up option, directing them to the Lemon Squeezy payment page upon clicking.

Step 7: Manage New Members

Once a visitor completes a purchase through Lemon Squeezy:
