Bubble.io Developer for App Store MVP — Infrastructure-Style App

Jobs / Freelance
1

ARK is a backup internet app for travelers and diaspora communities — (esim)a spare tire for connectivity when a primary carrier fails.
We are launching App Store–first, starting with the US → Ghana corridor.
ARK is not a marketing app or a simple CRUD build.
This is an infrastructure-adjacent product built around trust, reliability, and real-world edge cases.

Project Type
Bubble.io MVP
App Store–first (Bubble + mobile wrapper such as BDK Native)
Paid, milestone-based contract

Hey @contact.arkconnect :waving_hand:

I’m curious if you have a working example of how you will do this. It’s not a typical build. Is there an API that you connect to where you can purchase an eSIM and everything?

The Stripe payment is an easy thing by the way. Use the Bubble Stripe plugin and you shouldn’t have an issue. :blush:

Probably they would, do it form sendgrid or other platform.

back in time, i wanted to build a system for QA guyes, which give them temporary phone number and emails for testing.

as with testign app , some time we need to give phone number but here in PAK, India , we dont have US or other Europen number. so to give Project manager a platform to give there QA temporary number for test was my idea. because i faced it also my self testing with us number.

so, i did some research and found we can use sendgrid and few other platform which can give phone number to user. but the requirment was internet availability as these number were usign IP-calling.

For this case, He probably give user E-sims which can be automaticly ported to available network. really cool app to build.

Oh they are using Yesim, but yesim already have a public facing app to sell number, you business is on top of there business, you cant sell cheaper then them.

Really intresting how this go.

but they probably thought about it. got it they are reselling yesim and will get commision
