01 / FOR CUSTOMERS

What happens
when you buy?

Know the refund deadline, what seller badges mean and who handles a problem. Here are the actual protections behind a Lemonade Lab purchase.

THE LEMONADE LAB SATISFACTION GUARANTEE

30 day
protection

Exactly when a refund applies

  • Product not shipped: If a founder has not shipped an eligible purchase within 30 days of buying, our automatic refund process applies.
  • Service not completed: Incomplete services and unresolved service complaints can qualify at the 30 day deadline. Report a service problem in your order before that deadline.
  • Mixed or unusual orders: Some purchases require individual review instead of an automatic refund.
Read the full 30 day policy

Important: A shipped parcel that is lost, damaged or not as described is handled through order support, not the automatic unshipped order rule. This guarantee does not replace your rights under consumer law.

RETURNS AND ORDER PROBLEMS

You contact us. We handle the next steps.

  • Damaged or wrong item? Tell Lemonade Lab what happened.
  • Order missing? We help investigate delivery problems.
  • Need a return? We coordinate the process with the founder.

CUSTOMER MESSAGES

Talk to the shop without private contact details.

  • Before delivery: Platform messages and email replies pass through safety checks.
  • Private details: The founder’s personal email is not shown to customers.
  • One conversation: Replies stay in Lemonade Lab Messages, with support available when needed.
See how messages are protected
01 / BEFORE CHECKOUTCheck the listing

Look at the actual product photos, delivery details and seller badges, if earned.

02 / AFTER CHECKOUTKeep your order details

Your order record shows the purchase and the applicable protection deadline.

03 / IF SOMETHING GOES WRONGContact Lemonade Lab

For a service complaint, record the problem in your order before the 30 day deadline.

02 / HOW SELLER BADGES WORK

What does
“Verified” mean?

These are earned milestones based on real orders and reviews. A badge is not a product inspection.

Lemonade Lab Verified Seller seal
REAL FULFILMENT HISTORY

Verified Seller

  • To qualify: At least five separate paid and fulfilled orders through the founder’s website or Lemonade Lab Marketplace.
  • Not counted: In person sales.
  • What it proves: The founder has successfully fulfilled online purchases.

This is not independent inspection or certification of every product.

Lemonade Lab Top Reviewed Seller seal
REAL CUSTOMER FEEDBACK

Top Reviewed Seller

  • To qualify: At least five individual five star customer reviews from qualifying purchases, subject to moderation.
  • What it proves: Multiple customers reported excellent experiences.
  • What it does not prove: That every future order will be perfect.

Reviews and badge eligibility follow our published moderation rules.

No badge yet? That only means the founder has not earned the milestone. New founders can still offer excellent products.

Your shop can be public.
Your private details do not have to be.

03 / FOR FOUNDERS

Your shop is public.
Your details are not.

Customers should be able to buy from your shop without gaining access to your home address, private contact details or family information.

Account details stay off your storefront

  • Not shown: Your account surname, private email, phone number or home address.
  • You choose: Whether to show a first name and your public shop story.

Shipping labels without your home address

  • Sender and return address: A Lemonade Lab managed address on labels bought through our shipping tools.
  • Your origin details: Used privately for shipping setup, not printed as the sender on those labels.

Reply without giving out your personal email

  • Customer sees: Your shop conversation, not your private email address.
  • You reply: Inside Lemonade Lab Messages or through the relayed email thread.

Parents can see conversations and booking details

  • Shop messages: Linked parents can review conversations and control messaging permissions.
  • Service bookings: Booking alerts share relevant customer and schedule information when notifications are enabled.
See founder privacy and messaging rules

04 / LL SAFE

Messages are screened.
Private details are guarded.

LL SAFE checks messages sent through the marketplace and relayed email before delivery. It looks for unsafe content and attempts to move founders into private conversations.

LL SAFEBuilt into Lemonade Lab
01 / MESSAGE SCREENING

What messages are checked for

  • Harmful or inappropriate content
  • Scams, suspicious requests and pressure to move conversations elsewhere
  • Requests for private information
02 / PRIVACY CHECKS

What LL SAFE looks to prevent

  • Sharing phone numbers, home addresses or passwords in messages
  • Requests for private contact details or secret conversations
  • Other interactions that may need blocking or review
03 / REPORT AND SUPPORT

What to do if a message feels wrong

  • Keep the conversation on Lemonade Lab
  • Contact our team about concerning messages or content
  • Authorized safety reviewers can examine reports and help

LL SAFE reduces risk but cannot catch everything. Messages are not end to end encrypted because safety screening and authorized support may need access. It is not a claim of perfect safety. Read our privacy policy

05 / SERVICES AND FAMILY SAFETY

When a service
gets booked.

A dog walk or local service can involve meeting a customer in person. Here is what Lemonade Lab records and shares with the family.

01

Booking details are recorded

The booked service, schedule and available customer details remain attached to the service booking.

02

Linked parents can review customer information

When parent booking notifications are enabled, Lemonade Lab sends relevant customer details and the service schedule. A notification is not the same as a mandatory approval.

03

No secret meetings or private contact requests

Customers and founders should use platform bookings and Messages. Never ask a young founder for a private phone number, home address, school details or a secret meeting.

THE IMPORTANT DETAILS

The exact rules.
Plain answers.

We would rather explain how something works than make a promise we cannot prove.

Is Lemonade Lab safe for my child?

Lemonade Lab combines parent controls, private account details and LL SAFE message screening. These protections reduce risk; families should still review shop activity and agree on safe arrangements for services. See how parents stay involved.

Where can I read Lemonade Lab reviews?

Our reviews guide links to official app store feedback and explains how individual shop reviews differ from experiences using Lemonade Lab. Explore Lemonade Lab reviews.

Is Lemonade Lab COPPA and PIPEDA compliant?

Yes. Lemonade Lab is COPPA and PIPEDA compliant. Our Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected and used, and the choices available to families. Explore parent controls.

Does Lemonade Lab inspect or certify every product?

No. Our earned seller seals recognize real completed orders and review milestones. They are not product testing, certification or a guarantee of an individual item. Check the listing and contact us with concerns.

What happens if my order has not shipped by day 30?

Our satisfaction guarantee describes the automatic refund process for eligible unshipped purchases. Eligibility depends on order type and fulfilment status; some mixed or exceptional orders require manual review. Read the full policy for how this works.

What if my order shipped but never arrived?

Contact Lemonade Lab. Shipping alone does not prove delivery, but the automatic unshipped order deadline is different from a missing or damaged shipment. We handle these support cases and help determine the next step.

Are services automatically refunded if I am unhappy?

An incomplete service or an unresolved service complaint is covered by the published 30 day policy when the required conditions are met. Report a problem in your order before its deadline. A completed service with no unresolved complaint is not automatically refunded.

Can customers see a founder’s home address or personal email?

Private account details are not displayed in marketplace messages or shop listings. Lemonade Lab managed shipping labels do not print the founder’s home address. Founders may choose to share a first name or public shop story. See the privacy details.

Does LL SAFE catch everything?

No automated moderation is perfect. We check platform and relayed email messages for risks, but participants should still avoid sharing personal details and contact Lemonade Lab about anything suspicious. Messages are not end to end encrypted.

Do parents approve every customer service booking?

Not automatically. Linked parents can receive relevant booking details when those notifications are enabled and can review their child’s conversations and controls. A booking alert is not a separate approval step. Families should agree on safe service arrangements.

What if a founder is new and has no seller seal?

Every founder starts somewhere. Seller seals require earned history. A shop without a seal may still have excellent products and services; the absence of a seal only means that the specific milestone has not been earned.

A MARKETPLACE BUILT FOR WHAT COMES NEXT

Protect the people.
Let the ideas grow.

Discover something extraordinary, or build something of your own. We are working to make both feel safer, simpler and more rewarding.
