PayPal in Lovable: check the payment flow before launch
Lovable's PayPal integration simplifies checkout, but your app must still handle charges, statuses and refunds correctly.

It doesn't work when fifty people sign in at once. That's not because you built it wrong — a prototype is built to be looked at, which is a different thing from being used. I turn it into something that holds up, without you starting from scratch.
No contract. You talk to the person who builds it.
What breaks
Whether the prototype was built in Bubble, Lovable, Figma or by hand. It's not the tool's fault — it's the difference between showing something and running it.
Two people save at the same time and one of the changes disappears. Nobody notices until someone gets in touch.
It keeps the curious out. It doesn't keep out anyone who knows what they're doing.
Fifty rows were fine. Fifty thousand aren't, and it's the same code.
You ship new versions by dragging something somewhere, and there's no way back when it goes wrong.
Which means it doesn't change, which means it doesn't get better.

How it works
We read what you've built
Before anything is rewritten. Most of a prototype is well thought out — it's just built to be demoed, not used.
What carries weight gets rebuilt
Database, sign-in, payments, publishing. The parts that break silently, and that cost the most to replace later.
The rest comes along
Flows and screens that work stay as they are. You'll recognise your product afterwards.
You get the keys
The code is yours, on your own accounts, and you can ship a new version yourself. No lock-in, and nobody sitting on the passwords.

Lovable can now call your own services when project events occur and before messages are sent, but the connection requires clear security boundaries.

Every week it doesn't hold is a week when new users meet an error message instead of what you built.

Send a link to your app or prototype and what you're wondering about. You get a written review back: what holds up, what doesn't, and what I would do first.
An answer within two working days. It costs nothing and commits you to nothing.

A rebuilt prototype is usually a couple of requests — not a six-month project with a quote at the bottom.
Six situations we hear about often. Pick the one that sounds most like you.
Three questions about what you want to build and when. Then we show you what actually applies to you.
