Developer must be comfortable working in the adult industry.
Current tech stack: Ionos VPS Server WordPress customsied theme AWS file storage
Currently the platform is “functional” in that everything works but we are looking to improve this for user experience. The main aspects we want to tackle:
Payment Gateway – We currently have a working payment gateway, we use Fibonatix which is a specialist adult merchant. However, the payment window is clunky, majority of payments get declined because its pulling data wrong from the platform to prepopulate the payment section. The payment options available are limited especially as our customers are internationally based. Lastly and most importantly, Fibonatix are pestering us on a regular basis expecting high volumes when we are startup, so we need an alternative merchant that is not going to pester us, offer more payment options and a more customer friendly process. I appreciate most merchants that will accept adult industry typically have high fees, a long and intensive application process, so we would be interested in any more streamline merchants. To give context OnlyFans uses Stripe, Stripe doesn’t approve of adult high risk but regards OnlyFans as a “content sharing platform”.
File Storage & Upload – Currently we operate on an Ionos VPS server linked to AWS storage. When creators upload a clip it is stored directly to AWS. However, the upload process is very slow. We do have a upload bar to show users it is doing something and not froze but ideally we want to improve the upload speed, make it user friendly and show progress as well as have it queue in the background so that users can continue to use the website.
Fake Activity – As we are a new platform, visiting the platform can appear empty and lack activity which instantly turns off new users. We need to give the impression of a vibrant environment. Similar to how some websites show “8 of these sold today” “4 people have booked this hotel in the last 24 hours”. We want some function to give the impression activity is happening both on social media and on the website. We currently have something which makes a post on social media when a custom request is made so maybe we could develop this so it generates fake content.
