List of suggestions
Sharing a list ideas from further testing:
-
payment gateways should be a separate module by design - only test mode should be in the core. It looks like there will be a challange to have a favourite payment processors integrated out of the box (it depends on a country etc).
Should we have a Google Pay, Amazon Pay, Apple Pay and other big companies available out of the box there?
-
products archive page should have a sort by custom order (its not the same as sort by ID#) - add to a product item a Sort Order Number field. So when adding a product then a custom order can be set by admin for products displayed on the archive page (not everybody wants to sort products by A-Z, Z-A on the archive page)
-
ability to configure where to redirect user after a purchase was made - to a custom url like: Thank you page or stay on the same page (by default)
-
set a custom number of days for the Trial (no charge) period
-
can a coupon code be applied via url query string? Ex: when we share a link we can include branded (aff) coupon etc and coupon is automatically applied (or even set in a cookie/local storage for the next x min)
-
configure purchase product limit per customer (WP account) so the customer cannot buy the same product/license >X times - limit per user so if we have a membership 1 year someone cannot buy it 10 times straight to stack it and have 10 years memebership. This is important so when price will go higher or we close the shop/service we wont loose money and there wont be a need to provide the service for the next 20 years
-
fCart could be integrated (Pro) with other coupons from fProducts so fCart could be a Central Coupon hub - integrated with all other pro fPlugins: forms, booking - they are sync in with fCart coupons (Pro)
-
Paid subscription (integration) can give verified badge (blue tickmark) but also we could select other custom badges in fCommunity (Pro) - ex: when somone will purchase VIP subscription we could assign automatically a custom defined VIP badge in out fCommunity etc. Once the membership is expired remove a selected badges automatically.
-
user registration via fAuth/fForm to be rewarded and linked to an fAffiliate so we can give $x for a signup free account - also that new account is automatically assigned/linked to Affiliate permanently/lifetime or 1 year for all upcoming purchases (Pro)
-
there should be an easy way how to add the order bump on a checkout (per product or per category)
-
make a customer/order/product as a favourite item (star icon) so it is easy to find it later for the Admin (pinned to the top or filtered by fav)
-
option to buy a coupon code as a product - once a product is purchased a unique one time Coupon Code is generated in fCart with x days expiration date. Ex: we have $20 coupon as a product for sale for the price of $15 in our Store and it can be purchased by anybody or our members only.
