Create a Shopify

I’m currently looking for an experienced Shopify developer/designer with a strong understanding of compliance, payments, and ad platform policies.

Previously, I operated a Shopify store selling drug detox solutions. Unfortunately, Shopify Payments was shut down, PayPal was frozen, and ongoing restrictions made it impossible to operate effectively, so we had to close the store.

We’ve now made the decision to relaunch with a completely new direction.

We are focusing on a single product: a rave recovery drink. However, rather than positioning it as a detox or comedown solution, it will be marketed clearly and compliantly as a hydration and recovery drink — similar to an electrolyte brand.

This time, we need to get everything right from the start.

I’m looking for someone who:
• Has previous experience building compliant Shopify stores
• Understands Shopify Payments and PayPal requirements
• Can structure product pages and messaging to meet regulations
• Builds stores that are Google Ads friendly
• Knows how to avoid unnecessary compliance flags or shutdowns

Domains, trademarks, packaging, and mockups are all ready. We are simply waiting on the store build before proceeding with launch.

Our goal is to have everything live and fully operational before May 1st, in time for the Ibiza season.

If you have relevant experience and believe you can help us structure this correctly from both a branding and compliance perspective, I’d love to discuss further.
