I’m looking for an experienced freelance WordPress and Elementor developer to help build a two-part voucher deals platform similar in concept to Groupon, Daddy Deals, FOMO, and Hyperli in South Africa. Project Overview The platform will consist of two separate websites/platforms that work together: 1. Customer-Facing Deals Website 2. Merchant Voucher Redemption Portal I already have a website template set up in Elementor, and the entire project must be developed using WordPress + Elementor. This is important because I am most familiar with Elementor and need to be able to manage the platform myself after development. Using Elementor should allow me to easily add, edit, remove, and manage new deals submitted by our subscribers/service providers. ⸻ Website 1: Customer-Facing Deals Platform This will be the main website where customers can browse available deals, make purchases, and receive vouchers. Types of Deals The platform will feature a variety of deals and experiences, including: * Spa and wellness packages * Bungee jumping experiences * Accommodation specials * Quad biking adventures * Boat cruises * Restaurants and dining experiences * Activities and entertainment * Travel and holiday packages * Beauty and lifestyle services * And other discounted products and services Customer Journey The basic process should be: Browse Deal → Select Deal → Purchase → Receive Voucher → Redeem Voucher After a successful purchase, the customer should automatically receive a digital voucher containing the necessary information for redemption. ⸻ Website 2: Merchant Portal The second website/platform will be used by merchants and service providers who participate in the deals marketplace. Merchants should have their own secure login where they can: * Log into their merchant account * View voucher redemptions * Enter or scan voucher codes * Validate whether a voucher is genuine and unused * Confirm/redeem the voucher * Prevent the same voucher from being redeemed more than once * View their redemption history The system should provide a simple and user-friendly interface that does not require technical knowledge. ⸻ Key Functional Requirements 1. WordPress + Elementor * The entire platform must be built using WordPress and Elementor * I should be able to manage the website without relying on a developer for everyday tasks * Easy management of deals, images, descriptions, pricing and availability 2. Deal Management I need an easy back-end system where I can: * Add new deals * Edit existing deals * Remove/deactivate deals * Set original and discounted prices * Set deal expiry dates * Set voucher validity periods * Add deal limits/quantities where required * Upload images and descriptions * Manage participating merchants 3. Online Payments The customer platform should support secure online payments and automatically trigger voucher generation after successful payment. 4. Voucher Generation After a successful purchase: * A unique voucher should automatically be generated * The voucher should contain a unique voucher/reference number or QR code * The voucher should be delivered to the customer electronically * The voucher should be linked to the specific deal and merchant * Each voucher should only be redeemable once 5. Voucher Redemption Merchants should be able to: * Log into their portal * Enter a voucher code or scan a QR code * Immediately see whether the voucher is valid, expired, already redeemed or invalid * Redeem/mark the voucher as used * View their previous redemptions 6. Merchant Accounts The system should allow me to: * Create and manage merchant accounts * Assign deals to specific merchants * Activate/deactivate merchants * View merchant voucher redemptions * Monitor voucher activity 7. Customer Accounts Customers should ideally be able to: * Create an account * Log in * View their purchased vouchers * Download/retrieve vouchers * View their purchase history 8. Responsive Design The entire platform must work properly on: * Desktop * Laptop * Tablet * Mobile phones The customer experience should be particularly optimized for mobile users. ⸻ Administration & Reporting I would also like an administrative dashboard where I can monitor: * Total sales * Number of vouchers sold * Number of vouchers redeemed * Unredeemed vouchers * Expired vouchers * Sales by deal * Sales by merchant * Redemption activity * Customer purchases The system should make it easy to manage the overall marketplace from one central WordPress administration area, where possible. ⸻ Important Development Requirement WordPress + Elementor is a non-negotiable requirement. I already have an Elementor template and want to continue using this platform because I need to be able to manage the website myself after the project is completed. I am therefore looking for someone who has strong practical experience with WordPress, Elementor, e-commerce, voucher/coupon systems, payment integration and custom WordPress development. Please do not apply if your primary experience is with other platforms such as Shopify, Wix, Laravel, React, etc. The core platform must remain WordPress + Elementor. ⸻ Ideal Developer The ideal freelancer should have experience with: * WordPress development * Elementor / Elementor Pro * WooCommerce or similar WordPress e-commerce systems * Custom WordPress functionality * Voucher/coupon systems * QR code generation/scanning * Payment gateway integration * User/member management * Merchant/vendor portals * Database management * API integrations * Mobile-responsive development * WordPress security Experience developing Groupon-style, deal, coupon, marketplace or voucher platforms would be a major advantage. ⸻ What I Would Like From Applicants When applying, please provide: 1. Examples of similar WordPress/Elementor projects you have developed 2. Examples of voucher, coupon, marketplace or merchant systems you have built 3. Your proposed approach to building the two-platform system 4. Estimated development timeline 5. Your total development cost 6. Any WordPress plugins or technologies you recommend 7. Whether you will provide ongoing support and maintenance after launch The goal is to build a professional, scalable and easy-to-manage voucher deals platform, with the ability to add more merchants, deals and customers as the business grows. Please only apply if you have proven WordPress and Elementor development experience.

Hi, this is a strong fit because the project is specifically WordPress + Elementor, and that is exactly where my experience is strongest. Your brief is clear: customer-side deal purchases with auto voucher delivery, plus a secure merchant portal for validation, redemption, and history. I’d approach this with Elementor for site management, WooCommerce for transactions, and custom voucher/QR + merchant workflow layered cleanly on top so it stays manageable for you after launch. I can also recommend the right plugin stack and provide post-launch support if needed.

Hi — Elias here from Miami. I understand you're building a two-part voucher deals platform using WordPress and Elementor. The goal is to create a seamless experience for users while managing complex integrations and workflows effectively. What usually matters most here is ensuring the site can scale as your user base grows. A common issue in systems like this is managing user roles and permissions effectively, especially when integrating with WooCommerce for payment processing. Looks straightforward initially, but maintaining performance and reliability during peak times is crucial. I would focus on structuring the site for both stability and maintainability. Leveraging custom post types for vouchers and a robust database schema will help future-proof the platform. I've worked on similar e-commerce sites, optimizing them for performance and user experience, which gives me insights into potential pitfalls. A few questions to better understand the scope: Q1 – What specific user roles do you envision for the voucher platform? Q2 – Are there particular payment gateways you want to integrate? Q3 – How do you plan to handle product customization and user-generated content? Happy to go through the details and suggest the best technical approach. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Hi, I understand this is a two-part WordPress + Elementor voucher marketplace, not just a standard eCommerce website. I would keep the customer-facing side in Elementor/WooCommerce so you can easily manage deals yourself, then build the merchant redemption portal with custom WordPress functionality for voucher validation, QR scanning, one-time redemption, redemption history and merchant-specific access. The system would cover the full flow: Browse Deal → Purchase → Generate Unique Voucher/QR → Customer Receives Voucher → Merchant Validates/Redeems → Admin Tracks Sales & Redemptions I’ll also set up customer accounts, merchant accounts, deal/expiry/quantity management, payment integration, mobile responsiveness, and admin reporting for sold/redeemed/expired vouchers and sales by merchant/deal. I would use Elementor + WooCommerce + custom WordPress/PHP development, using plugins only where they genuinely save time without creating unnecessary dependency or bloat. Fixed price: $1,500 USD Estimated timeline: 3–4 weeks Post-launch support: 30 days for bugs/issues related to the delivered scope I’m comfortable with WordPress, Elementor, WooCommerce, custom user roles, voucher/QR workflows, payment integrations and custom admin functionality. I can start by reviewing your existing Elementor template and then map the voucher/merchant workflow before development begins.

Hello, I’ve read the complete brief carefully. This is not simply a WooCommerce deals website—the important part is building a reliable connection between customers, purchases, vouchers, merchants, and one-time redemption, while keeping the front end manageable through WordPress + Elementor. I can build the platform around your existing Elementor setup and keep the day-to-day management as simple as possible. I’ll make the redemption interface particularly mobile-friendly because merchants will likely use phones or tablets at the point of redemption. WordPress + Elementor I understand that WordPress + Elementor is non-negotiable. WooCommerce & payments WooCommerce would be a strong foundation for the customer purchasing workflow, with the payment gateway selected according to your South African payment requirements. The successful-payment event will trigger the voucher-generation workflow, while failed/pending payments will not generate redeemable vouchers. I can also provide post-launch maintenance/support on an ongoing basis. I’m personally interested in building this as a maintainable WordPress system rather than simply assembling plugins and hoping the voucher workflow works. The goal is for you to be able to add merchants and deals yourself while the critical payment and redemption logic remains secure and reliable. Best regards ADEEL

Hello, I’ve read the complete brief carefully. I understand that WordPress + Elementor is non-negotiable, and that the important part of this project is not just creating a deals website, but building the complete workflow: Deal → Purchase → Unique Voucher → Customer Delivery → Merchant Validation → One-Time Redemption Proposed approach I would use WordPress + Elementor/Elementor Pro + WooCommerce as the core platform, with custom WordPress functionality for the parts that standard WooCommerce does not handle natively. Suggested technology WordPress Elementor / Elementor Pro WooCommerce Custom WordPress plugin for voucher/merchant functionality QR code generation/scanning Appropriate payment gateway for your target market WordPress roles/capabilities for merchant access Custom database structures where WooCommerce metadata is not sufficient I would also recommend allowing a separate post-launch maintenance/support arrangement for updates, security monitoring, troubleshooting and future feature development. The most important thing for me would be getting the voucher lifecycle and merchant redemption logic correct from the beginning. I’m available to discuss the existing Elementor template, preferred payment gateway, merchant workflow, and voucher rules before development begins. Best regards, RAHEEL

Hey, I’ve carefully reviewed your project, and I understand you need a scalable voucher marketplace built entirely with WordPress and Elementor, with a seamless customer purchase-to-redemption journey. I can help build this with a clean, manageable structure while keeping everyday administration simple for you. I will implement the deal management, secure payments, automated voucher/QR generation, customer accounts, and a dedicated merchant portal for real-time voucher validation and redemption. The platform will be responsive, secure, thoroughly tested, and structured so you can manage deals and content without ongoing developer dependency. I have hands-on experience with similar WordPress projects and would be happy to share relevant examples during our discussion.

Hi, I read the brief carefully and appreciate that WordPress + Elementor is non-negotiable, which is perfectly fine from my side. I can help build both parts of the system: the public deals website for browsing and purchasing, and the merchant portal for code/QR validation, redemption, and tracking. I would make sure deals, merchants, expiry rules, voucher validity, and customer purchase history are all easy for you to manage inside WordPress. Mobile usability and clean admin control would be a big focus here.

Hi, We build custom WordPress on Elementor, so managing deals, prices, and expiry dates yourself after launch stays clean. The redemption side is the real work here: a merchant portal with scan or code entry that checks valid, expired, or already used in one lookup. I'd handle vouchers as a custom post type tied to a WooCommerce order, each with a unique reference and QR, marked used on redemption so nobody double redeems. We've built WordPress sites on Elementor with Figma-driven design and mobile-responsive layouts, including a full redesign for a US home services business. One question: do your merchants need mobile QR scanning through the phone camera, or is manual code entry enough for v1? That changes the portal build. Adil

Hello!, This is James from Hollywood... I read your Voucher Deals Platform project carefully, and I understand you need a two-part WordPress + Elementor build that is polished, fast, and easy to manage. With 15 years of experience in WordPress, WooCommerce, Elementor, website optimization, and database-driven builds, I can handle this in a clean and practical way. My approach: 1. Review the full structure and deal/voucher logic 2. Build the WordPress foundation with Elementor for easy edits 3. Set up WooCommerce and any custom database needs 4. Optimize speed, mobile layout, and admin usability 5. Test everything properly before launch I’m very detail-focused, because the small things usually decide whether a site feels premium or rushed. If your goal is a voucher platform that is reliable, easy to update, and built to grow, I’d be glad to help. Relevant work examples: - hotelcollection-style ecommerce build - tombihn-style product/catalog site - usabaseballshop-style WooCommerce setup - foriawellness-style conversion-focused store Could you please clarify the following questions to help me better understand the project? 1. What exactly are the two parts of the platform, and how should they connect? 2. Will vouchers, memberships, or deal listings need custom logic beyond standard WooCommerce?

Building a marketplace like Daddy Deals or Hyperli on WordPress requires a clean marriage between WooCommerce for the transactions and a custom portal for the merchants. Since you already have the Elementor template, the focus shifts to the logic: unique voucher generation, mobile QR scanning, and the merchant side validation dashboard. I will set this up using WooCommerce as the engine, coupled with a specialized voucher system that handles auto-generation upon payment. For the Merchant Portal, I recommend a front end dashboard using JetEngine or ACF Pro so your partners never see the WordPress back end. They can scan QR codes directly from their phones at the point of sale, instantly marking vouchers as used to prevent double dipping. Since you need to manage this yourself, I will build everything using standard Elementor widgets and custom post types to keep the system modular and easy to edit. You will be able to track every sale and redemption from your central admin area without needing a developer for day to day operations. How do you plan to handle the payout split between you and the merchants (will it be a manual monthly reconciliation or do you need an automated split payment system at the point of sale)?
