BitHappy includes a simple Delivery Tracking system for Buyers & Sellers. A Seller can add Delivery Tracking information to any Order which immediately updates the Buyer. Also, once the goods are received the Buyer can inform the Seller with just a click.
A Seller can give access to all or parts of their Account to different Users. eg: Sales staff, that only have access to Order information and cannot change Products or any other details.
A Seller can set the Opening Hours of the Account so that Buyers can only make Purchases at certain times. This can work for a retail outlet or a stall in a market. The Products can still be seen by Buyers outside of the specified times.
BitHappy Escrow reduces the risk of fraud by acting as a trusted third-party that collects, holds and only disperses funds after the Buyer has received their Product or Service.
A Seller chooses which Products they wish to offer to Buyers using the Escrow service. Escrow is paid for by the Buyer.
A Seller can specify the Location of their Account. This is reflected on the "Search Map" and "Near You" listing in kilometers from a Buyer.
A Seller could be moving around the world. Think of a musician for example. A Seller can specify their current position or any co-ordinate as their Location.
Sellers can create custom "Locations" which specify where the Product is going to be delivered. For example in a restaurant ?Locations? would be Table Numbers.
A QR Code is created for each Location, which can be scanned by the Buyer. So in a night club for example, a QR code could be on a wall which could be scanned so that the Seller knows where the Buyer is located. A "Location" could be a person or a tree.
