When click "get ExpoShip" on the homepage and put my email address in I get an email saying "follow this link to confirm your user". When I click that link, it takes me to a page that says "You don't have access to this page To get access to this page make a purchase first".

Same thing if I sign in with github.

You need to go to https://expoship.dev/#pricing and make a purchase first to get access to the dashboard

Yes I understand that. But the “get expoship” button on the homepage should take me to somewhere I can purchase. And if it’s sending me a magic link then the magic link should take me to somewhere I can purchase.

Trying it again now it’s still the same bug, and the email doesn’t arrive.

If you have bugs like this at the first point you’re trying to acquire a customer then that doesn’t bode well for the robustness of the product you’re selling.

I was genuinely interested to buy this (I bought shipfa.st, and have found it very useful) but this is a big red flag.
