- Description
- Our client is looking for a dynamic and agile software firm to develop a Customer Mobile App, Merchant Mobile App, Web / Mobile site, based on following directions:
Business:
Our client provides discounted merchant deals to its customers, who would buy the deals from within the app. The merchant will then be cleared financially at the end of the payment cycle. On the other hand, the customer may not buy the deal but rather avail the deal by visiting the merchant. The customer will show the deal to the merchant on his/her mobile app and the merchant will then enter the merchant’s pin to confirm. The customer can also buy services of the merchants that are not offered under the deal, but are rather standard services at the standard rates. The bookings can be made from within the app. The app will automatically do the financials and credit and debit merchant account based on these transactions. Moreover, the Customers are able to buy the ‘Products’ also from within the app.

i. Deals, Services & Products:

ii. App & Layout:
The app would show the ‘New Today’ section for all the deals starting that day. When a ‘Deal’ is finalized between the company and the merchant, the deal would be agreed upon for promotion for a longer period of time.
