Lemonway is a French licensed payment institution specializing in providing modular and compliant payment solutions tailored for marketplaces and crowdfunding platforms. Established since 2012 and trusted by over 400 marketplaces including major clients like Decathlon and SNCF Connect & Tech, Lemonway offers a comprehensive suite of services including Pay-In, Identification (KYC), Wallet management, Pay-Out, and an intuitive Dashboard. Their API-centric approach enables seamless integration and control over payment flows, supporting multiple currencies and payment methods. The company emphasizes security, compliance, and user experience, backed by ACPR licensing and PCI DSS compliance. Technically, the website leverages modern frameworks such as Next.js and React, with robust analytics and tracking tools implemented responsibly with user consent. Security posture is strong with HTTPS, security headers, and secure forms, although explicit security policies and incident response details are not publicly disclosed.

Overall, Lemonway presents a professional, secure, and mature digital presence aligned with its business objectives.

This scan rated NIS2 with an earlier keyword method that is no longer shown; rescan for the per-article view. Risk management, continuity, supply chain, training, MFA, management oversight (Art. 20) and incident reporting (Art. 23) need internal evidence, and Guard cannot tell whether NIS2 applies to this organisation.

GDPR is indicative only, based on publicly visible signals: Articles 7, 12, 13 and 32 of Regulation (EU) 2016/679 and Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive. Not a certification or legal assessment.

Priority findings

5 findings rated critical or high. Fix these first.

  1. Security headers

    Security headers are instructions your web server sends to every visitor’s browser. Missing ones leave visitors more exposed to attacks such as clickjacking and injected scripts.

    • High

      Missing X-Frame-Options header

      Prevents clickjacking attacks

      What to do: Add "X-Frame-Options: DENY" or "X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN"

  2. GDPR outside view

    These are the privacy signals visitors and data protection authorities look for under GDPR.

    • High

      No Privacy Policy found

      GDPR requires a clear and accessible privacy policy

      What to do: Add a comprehensive privacy policy page and link to it prominently

    • High

      No Cookie Policy found

      GDPR requires clear information about cookie usage

      What to do: Add a dedicated cookie policy explaining cookie usage and purposes

    • High

      No Cookie Consent Banner found

      GDPR requires explicit consent for non-essential cookies

      What to do: Implement a cookie consent banner that appears on first visit

    • High

      Third-party services without privacy policy

      Detected services: Google Analytics, LinkedIn, YouTube

      What to do: Document all third-party data sharing in your privacy policy

Each check with its score, findings and the evidence it collected.

How this score is calculated

The security score runs 0–100, higher is better. It is the plain average of the security checks that completed in this scan, each counted equally. A check that could not run is left out: it counts neither as a pass nor as a fail.

Not counted

  • NIS2 outside view: Re-weights evidence from the TLS, email, DNS, network and hygiene checks, so counting it would count that evidence twice. Shown on its own.
  • OffSeq Observations: An AI reading of the site, useful context but not reproducible evidence. Shown on its own.

Findings that cap the score at 49

Each of these is serious on its own, so while any is present the site cannot rate better than high risk, however good the other checks are.

  • The certificate is not trusted by browsers
  • The website is not served over HTTPS
  • A database, remote desktop, file-sharing or Telnet service is reachable from the internet
  • The page loads a script from a compromised source
  • The domain registration has expired
  • SPF authorises every server to send mail as the domain

Partial scans

When the site blocks Guard or most checks cannot run, the score covers only the checks that ran (usually DNS and email), is capped at 75 and is shown as partial, without a risk level.

Technical appendix

Business context, site observations and technical notes gathered during the scan, and the standards behind each reference.

Business context

Business profile

Lemonway occupies a strong position in the fintech sector, focusing on payment processing for marketplaces and crowdfunding platforms. Their business model revolves around API-driven payment services that enable marketplaces to manage complex payment flows including onboarding, wallet management, and payouts. The company benefits from a broad client base and strategic partnerships with marketplace platforms like Mirakl and e-commerce leaders such as Adobe Commerce. Revenue streams likely include transaction fees, subscription for API access, and value-added services like KYC and fraud prevention. The target customers are marketplace operators and crowdfunding platforms seeking compliant and scalable payment solutions. Growth indicators include recent acquisition of PayGreen activities and continuous expansion of plugins and integrations. The company maintains a strong ecosystem and emphasizes customer success through case studies and testimonials.

Security posture

Lemonway demonstrates a mature security posture with enforced HTTPS, comprehensive security headers, and secure handling of user data via consent-based forms. The presence of PCI DSS compliance and ACPR licensing indicates adherence to stringent regulatory and security standards. However, the absence of a publicly available security policy or incident response plan and lack of a vulnerability disclosure program represent areas for improvement. No vulnerabilities or exposed sensitive data were detected in the website content. The use of modern analytics tools is balanced with privacy considerations. Overall, Lemonway's security practices align well with industry expectations for a financial services provider, though transparency around security governance could be enhanced.

Recommendations

  1. Publish a dedicated security policy and incident response information on the website to improve transparency and trust.
  2. Implement and publicize a vulnerability disclosure program or security.txt file to encourage responsible reporting of security issues.
  3. Provide a direct security contact email (e.g., security@lemonway.com) for incident reporting and inquiries.
  4. Regularly review and update privacy and cookie policies to maintain GDPR compliance and user trust.
  5. Enhance WHOIS transparency if possible, or provide clear justification for privacy protection to reduce trust concerns.

Technical notes

Notes

The website is built on a modern React and Next.js framework, ensuring fast performance and excellent mobile responsiveness. Hosting is on AWS infrastructure with Cloudfront CDN, supporting scalability and reliability. The site uses advanced analytics and marketing tools including Matomo, Hotjar, Google Tag Manager, and LinkedIn Insight Tag, all implemented with user consent mechanisms. SEO is well addressed with comprehensive meta tags and Open Graph data. Accessibility and navigation are well designed, contributing to a positive user experience. No technical debt or outdated libraries were detected. Opportunities exist to further enhance security transparency and incident response readiness.
Standards and sources

Reference chips under each finding point to the standard, regulation or specification the finding relates to. They are taken from the official datasets below and mapped conservatively: a finding with no defensible link shows none. NIS2 and GDPR references mark where a finding is relevant evidence, not a compliance verdict. Implementing Regulation (EU) 2024/2690 binds digital infrastructure and digital service providers; for other entities it is the most detailed public reading of the Article 21 measures. WCAG, EN 301 549, European Accessibility Act and Web Accessibility Directive references name the requirement an automated accessibility rule relates to; they are not a conformance verdict.
