The Challenge
It was necessary to create an online store that would give users the opportunity to donate unneeded items and participate in charity through their sale.
Furthermore, users needed to be able to easily find and purchase items listed by others while choosing the charitable organization to receive the funds paid.
The Approach
The key was connecting the sale of items with charitable giving. To achieve this, an online store was created where a user can donate their item, set its price, and choose a charitable organization, while buyers can discover items, purchase them, and select their preferred charitable project.
An activity point system was also created to encourage user engagement.
The Solution
An online store was built for Alubala, combining item sales and charitable donations into a single platform.
Through the "Donate" feature, users can upload an item they no longer use, set its price, and specify the charitable organization that will receive the proceeds from the sale.
Users can also search for items listed on the platform via categories and search functionality, purchase the desired item, and choose the charitable organization to receive the payment.
Payments are processed directly within the platform, and user activity is reflected in a point system.
The Result
An online store was built, enabling users to donate unneeded items, purchase items listed by others, and participate in charity through this process.
