LGBTQ+ Brand Microsite Developer with Email & Stripe Integration

I’m launching a bold, LGBTQ+ novelty brand offering custom email addresses, with plans to expand into merchandise sales and on-site chatting. The brand is fun, cheeky, and designed for a niche audience active on platforms like Grindr and Sniffies.

I’m looking for a creative and technically skilled web designer/developer to bring the vision to life—from setting up the website to configuring payments and email delivery.

This job covers Phase 1 (core website + email + Stripe). Future work may include full store and chat upgrades.

💬 Chat Feature (Optional or Phase 2)
