PROJECT: Ecwid Checkout Fix (Stripe + PayPal Flow) ⸻ About me I am an Australian artist selling original paintings online via my Ecwid-based website: https://kateowenart.com I am refining the checkout experience for high-value original artworks and need a developer to implement a clean, reliable, and professional purchase flow. This is a focused technical job, not a redesign and not a platform rebuild. ⸻ What I am looking for I am looking for a highly experienced and practical developer who: * Understands checkout/payment workflows * Has worked extensively with Ecwid * Can quickly understand and implement a clearly defined brief —I am not looking for someone who is learning on the job. I need someone who can recognise the issues immediately and implement the solution efficiently. ⸻ What I need done * Work within Ecwid (Lightspeed) * Implement Stripe or Square for card payments (on-site) * Ensure PayPal is optional only * Fix PayPal return behaviour * Improve the checkout flow and wording * Use JavaScript (not just CSS) where required ⸻ Important constraints * Do NOT suggest rebuilding the site * Do NOT suggest WordPress / Shopify * The existing structure must remain ⸻ Budget This is a clearly defined job. Expected cost: around $300 USD for an experienced developer Some flexibility up to $400 USD for the right person who can complete it quickly and cleanly. I am not looking for the cheapest option — I am looking for someone efficient and experienced. ⸻ Key requirement (READ CAREFULLY) To be considered, you must do the following: —Look at my product page: “The Pink Lake” on my site —Based on that, write a short response (maximum one page) explaining: 1. What the current checkout problem is 2. How you would fix the payment flow (Stripe/Square + PayPal separation) 3. Any limitations of Ecwid and how you would work around them 4. Your estimated time (hours) ⸻ Important * Do NOT send a generic proposal * Do NOT send long introductions * Do NOT send portfolios without addressing this job If your response does not directly address the above points, it will not be considered. ⸻ Future work If this job is completed well, I will likely require: * Further improvements to the site * Structural updates * Off-page SEO support ⸻ Timeline / working style I am travelling and working from mobile, so I need: * Clear, concise communication * Minimal back-and-forth * Someone who can understand the brief quickly and execute
