How it works
Users type a message, agree to the content rules, and click pay. After payment succeeds, the message is marked as paid and moved into a moderation queue. Only approved posts appear on the public wall.
Playful concept, moderation-first
Let people pay £1 to post a short message.
This prototype turns your idea into a safer public wall: visitors write a short message, pay a flat fee, and the submission goes into moderation before anything appears live.
Why this is safer
A moderation-first flow is much safer than publishing immediately after payment. It gives you a chance to reject abuse, personal allegations, or illegal content before it becomes public.

The vending machine definitely knows when you are late.

Fastest launch: create a £1 product in Stripe, create a Payment Link, add one custom field if needed, and redirect people from this button to that hosted checkout. Better long-term version: create Checkout Sessions on a server and use webhooks to mark submissions as paid.
Replace YOUR_STRIPE_PAYMENT_LINK below in the script for the quickest no-code version.
Production notes
For a real launch, use a backend or automation layer to store submissions, verify payment completion, and keep an approval queue. Good options are Stripe + Supabase, Stripe + Firebase, or Stripe + Airtable/Zapier for a simpler MVP.
