E-Commerce Site With Payment Gateway

I’m launching an online store and need a developer who can take the project from blank domain to a fully operational e-commerce site. The single non-negotiable requirement is a rock-solid payment gateway integration that handles multiple cards securely and passes PCI compliance checks.

I’m open on platform—Shopify, WooCommerce, Magento, or any other stack you’re comfortable with—as long as the final build is stable, fast, and easy for me to manage after hand-off. Product search, filters, and customer reviews may be added in later phases, but they aren’t part of this initial scope.

Deliverables
• Responsive storefront with sample product catalog
• Payment gateway set up, tested end-to-end in both sandbox and live modes
• Admin dashboard walkthrough so I can add products, adjust pricing, and view orders on my own

Please outline the tech stack you recommend, any past e-commerce sites you’ve built, and an estimated timeline to reach launch.
