Ink Fest · Custom Temporary Tattoos · Portugal
Ink Fest sells three ways. One site runs all of them.
Ink Fest sells temporary tattoos three ways: by the pack online, made to order from a customer's own artwork, and in person at weddings, festivals and brand activations. The site they asked for now runs all three. It takes the card payments, collects the event enquiries, and shows the owners what the business earned this month.

What was built
Seven systems behind one website
Store
A shop that keeps its own stock
Products live in a content system the owners edit themselves. Stripe handles the cart, the checkout and the card payment. When a payment clears, the stock count comes down on its own, once only, however many times Stripe retries the message.
Nobody has to remember to update a spreadsheet, and the last pack cannot be sold twice.
Made to order
Custom tattoos, priced on the spot
Customers order sheets printed from their own artwork. A configurator prices the job from what it actually costs to print: whole A4 sheets, a setup fee, and a better rate past a few sheets. The server runs the same sum again at checkout, so a customer cannot pay a price they made up themselves.
Events
Weddings, festivals, brand activations
Each event service has its own page and its own quote form, and the specific formats sit on pages underneath it: the disco bowl, the vending machines. An enquiry arrives as email and stops there. Nothing about the person asking is written into the content system, which is deliberate.
Order desk
Every order, start to finish
A password-protected dashboard lists every order and moves it through paid, shipped, delivered and returned. Marking one shipped emails the buyer a carrier tracking link. Revenue, order count, average order value, refund rate and low-stock warnings sit on the front page.
Privacy
Customer data stays where it belongs
The content system's database is publicly readable, which is how the site stays free to run, so no customer name, address, email or payment reference is ever written to it. Stripe is the order database, read live on every page load, and the confirmation page checks that you are the buyer before it shows an address.
There is no second copy of the customer list to lose.
Reputation
Reviews that can't be faked or filtered
A review invitation is a signed link, good for 60 days and tied to one order, so only a real buyer can write one, and only about a product that was in that basket. Approval is there to catch spam. The rating on a product page is the average of every review of it, including the bad ones.
Search
Built to be found, in both languages
Every page exists in English and Portuguese. The sitemap, the AI-crawler guide and the search-engine ping are generated from the same content, so none of them can describe a page that no longer exists. Nothing Google-owned loads until the visitor agrees to it.
