Lemon Markets

lemon.markets is a Berlin-based, BaFin-licensed Brokerage-as-a-Service provider that sells white-label investment infrastructure as an API. Partners embed securities trading in their own products without holding a licence or operating custody, order routing, settlement, tax and reporting themselves. The Brokerage API covers account opening and KYC/ID+V, business and BPO accounts, securities accounts, instruments and prices across 10,000+ ETFs, stocks, bonds and funds, single and batch orders, trades, positions and financials, withdrawals and balance sweeps, corporate actions and income distributions, treasury mandates and transfers, German tax exemption orders (Freistellungsauftrag), documents, cash settlement, and recurring-investment workflows for savings plans. It is a REST API over JSON with bearer API-key auth, cursor pagination, an Idempotency-Key header on order creation, HMAC-signed webhooks across 83 event types, and a sandbox environment with published test ISINs. The API is invite-only.

agent native

Real signal across most facets with visible, nameable gaps — the contract exists but is thin, or the portal is good while governance and commercial terms are absent.

Kin Score

API Evangelist profiles Lemon Markets the way a machine reads it — 21 machine-readable artifacts across 17 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.

Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Lemon Markets scores 51.4/100 (developing), with a separate agent-readiness read of 69/100 (agent native). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.

Kin Score

This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

MCP Servers 1

Model Context Protocol servers expose these APIs directly to AI agents. We profile them because agent-native access is the fastest-growing way this provider's capabilities actually get used.

Event Specifications 1

Not every API is request/response. AsyncAPI describes the event-driven and streaming side — the webhooks and channels — so the asynchronous half of the interface is documented the same way the synchronous half is.

Security Posture 2

Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
