Haven’t used LS before? But can you try using their API to export customers and reimport into stripe? What you will not be able to do is import their card data. I don’t think any payment provider can do that easily. That is likely a compliance no no.

Also, if you also need your customers transaction data, that won’t happen, because you can’t just migrate that between providers.

Using the API is not an option because we're migrating the active subscriptions themselves, including credit card data. Payment processors can transfer this data between one another, and there is a standard process for doing so while retaining PCI compliance, but because LemonSqueezy's customer support has been unavailable I can't get them to carry out those steps. Migrations between payment processors are fairly standard, though. For example, see https://docs.stripe.com/get-started/data-migrations and https://docs.lemonsqueezy.com/help/migrating/migrating-from-...
TIL, thanks
