0. Overview

===========

This system is used to manage users who purchase our software products. We are going to sell a set of software products that can run online.

A user can use a copy of software only if

1. the user has paid for that copy of software

2. the software runs on the domain that the user registered. One user can purchase and run several different software.

This system will manage the user profile, accept payment via paypal, and validate the online software.

Web Front code must be separated from the paypal handling and DB handling code.

4. Deliverables

===============

source code

database schema and installation support

maintenance for 1 month if any bug is found

For Clarification:

The software products we sell are flash website templates. With this user management system, we want to make sure that one purchased copy can only run from one domain.

User must have an account before make the payment. We have a manual process to put the account number into the purchased flash template. When the flash template is viewed from a server, it will report back the account number and domain name to our server (and some other info). We need the management system to validate the info and tell the flash if it's valid or not.

Please adjust your bidding price if this info changes your tech plan.

Questions for you:

1. One user (account) may purchase multiple products. Do you have a plan to handle such scenario?

2. Do you plan to use flash as the front end? (this is preferred, but static html is OK)

3. Do you plan to use Paypal standard or paypal pro? (paypal pro is preferred since users don't have to leave our site, but paypal standard is OK)

4. We need to take coupons, such as $100 off. Coupon is specific to product we sell. Can you include that in the system? (I assume this is a light effort).

5. Are you sure about the delivery date? I HATE delay. Please update the date if needed.

6. Have you checked our payment policy?
