eCommerce
Selling a product online - via the Internet - is worldwide accepted today. It requires an Internet application with a "catalogue", a "shopping cart" with the ordered products and service and a check-out point where the products and services are payed in a secure way.
In addition several functions for the shop-owner are added, like: inventory control, automatic ordering and registration of the customer preferences. It is obvious that the catalogue must contain pictures of every product offered, better is a range of pictures.
Statistical functionality can help to optimize turnover on e.g. a seasonal basis or based on other criteria.
Today many online shop software packages are available from very basic functionality up to very eleborate systems with all of the above feautures and many more. Special care must be taken to assure payment securement and the absolute confidentiality of the customer data.
The system architecture is in most cases such that the customer - after visiting the web site (the shop window) - can enter the store and immediatly can select and buy a product or service.Some products require special technical functionality like DRM to protect the copyrights of these products. Also the online payment function requires special technical functionalities to provide a range of payment possibilities.
