Suggestions for implementations and changes
• Add Brazilian Portuguese, as it is the most widely spoken language in the world
• Add a search filter, main category, subcategory, locations, and price to the home page
• Add more categories and subcategories
• Improve the rating system, implement a reputation system, where both sellers and buyers can be penalized with temporary blocks and even suspension if they repeat practices that violate the established terms.
• Change the auction start and end system, where they can choose the duration in minutes, hours, and days, thus making it more flexible
• Implement reserve value: Reserve System (Minimum Value): Sellers can set a reserve value for their auction items. The auction will only be considered valid if the final value reaches or exceeds the reserve value. If the reserve value is not reached, the seller is not obliged to sell the item, and it is up to the seller to decide whether or not to sell the item. The reserve value is hidden.
• Last-minute bid extension to protect items from last-minute bids. For example, if there is a bid in the last 2 minutes, the auction will be automatically extended for another 2 minutes. Without this feature, several buyers may wait until the last minute and place bids just seconds before the auction ends.
• Implement a voucher and affiliate system with coins: Vouchers help with initial campaigns → attract new users. Affiliates turn current users into active promoters. Coins create a mini internal ecosystem of value, encouraging engagement.
Hello,
Thank you for your suggestions. For the moment, any other functionalities will be done only as custom development.
Thank you for understanding.
Hi. What tech stack you are using on web version?
And what resources you recommend on VPS
Hello,
The web application is a NextJS application with Typescript and it is using a NodeJS server.
I do recommend having at least 1CPU and 2GB of RAM for the NodeJS server.
Please checkout the official documentation for more details here: https://www.biddo.info/docs
Do you have a video how to install Admin panel on a vps step by step.? Think your “doc” is not easy to to understand. Thanks
Did you take a look here: https://www.biddo.info/docs/server/deploy/publish-a2hosting?
This is a video recording.
Let me know if this helps.
Is there a feature project that allows you to see auctions near you or based on your proximity?
Hello,
I just added a functionality which will allow the users that have a location set to their account to sort the auctions based on the distance between them and the auction owner location.
It is currently under review.
Can this feature be included in dear pasca bazaryo?
I cannot give you an estimation for the moment
Hello, is it multilingual?
Hello. Yes, it is multilingual. If you go to the demo web application, you can see all the supported languages in the footer.
Let me know if you have questions anytime!
Thanks for reply. Will you continue to develop and improve the product in the future? Thank you.
You’re welcome! I will keep the dependencies up to date and fix any issues that might already exist, but bigger new functionalities will most probably be added only as custom development.
Let me know if you have more questions and I’ll do my best to help you.
Merhaba. Benim son bir sorum olacak. Mobil uygulamada bir açık arttırma eklendiğinde eşzamanlı olarak web sitesinde görünüüyor mu acaba? ikisi bir birine bağlı mı ?
Yes, both the web application and the mobile application are using the same NodeJs server, thus, the same database. When you add an auction from the mobile app it will appear on the web and the other way around as well.
kullanıcıların eklediği ilanları admin onayıda sunma seçeneği çok önemli bir konu. bir anda müstehcen resimler ekleyebilirler onun önüne geçmek lazım. kesin olarak almayı düsünüyorum bunu aldığımız zaman kendimiz yapabiliyor muyuz yoksa sizin eklemeniz mümkün mü
Currently, the admin approval does not exist inside the app, but other users can report existing auctions if they find any upsetting content and you can remove any auction from the admin panel.
You can definetly add it yourself if you have enough technical knowledge. Unfortunately, this is not in my backlog.
Let me know if you have any other questions and I’ll do my best to help you.
Admin panelini test etme şansımız var mı acaba ?
Hello,
You can test the admin panel here: https://server.biddo.info/admin/login
Username: test@biddo.com Pass: password
Take into account that these credentials are only for readonly, so you will not be able to create, update or delete any data. You will also not be able to see some sensitive data.
kullanıcı adı yada şifrenin yanlış olduğunu söyledi
I just tried it out and it worked. If you tried it using copy+paste, please make sure that you did not copy an extra space or an extra character. If this problem persists, please try to write the credentials by hand.
- 1. Some companies require documentation from bidders. Do you have that option?
- 2. Do you have a subscription for users?
- 3. I ran a page speed test and it tells me that the JavaScript is not up to date. Are you planning to update it?
- 4. Is there a direct payment gateway for cards or Metamask?
Hello,
1. I’m not really sure what you exactly mean with “documentation from bidders”. Can you please rephrase or give me more details?
2. Currently, the only payment integration is done to purchase tokens. So no subscriptions.
3. I am updating the product from time to time, so yes, whenever something is up to date, I do try to update the code.
4. There are integrations with stripe, paypal and razorpay. No other payment providers are supported.
Please checkout the documentation from here: https://www.biddo.info/docs
You might paint a better picture about the product.
For any other questions, feel free to come back with a message and I’ll do my best to help you.
Hi,
This looks great! Can you add auction proxy bidding, reserve price, and buy now option? These options can be helpful to sellers and the platform.
If possible for listing versatility, add a backend form for the admin to create default description/specs form type fields (eg. text, select, checkbox, radio, file, url) for sellers in creating auction/item form.
Thanks for the consideration. Best regards.
Hello,
I might add a functionality in which you will have the possibility to see auctions nearby, or based on a proximity. Unfortunately, the other functionalities that you described can be done only as custom development, at least for the near future.
If you have any other questions or proposals, feel free to come back with a message.
Pre purchase question: Hello, I would like to buy this however I have a few questions:
1. How can we make our users buy tokens as subscription for their listings so we make revenue?
2. Is full installation and after sales support provided to ensure there is no bugs in the source code or issues after deployment
3. Does it also have a mobile app we can buy and easily integrate?
4. Can we deploy this on a VPS
Hello,
1. Unfortunately, subscriptions are not supported inside the provided app. You will need to have some technical knowledge in order to implement it yourself.
2. As stated in the beginning of the product description, installation is not included and I cannot provide it either in the next period. Usually, when someone discovers a bug, it is fixed right away. You can see in the product description logs that I have some bugfixes. Until now, there are no other known bugs inside the app.
3. Yes, this bundle contains a web application, a mobile app (written in flutter) and a NodeJS server that is used by both mobile app and web app.
4. Yes. Please read the documentation I provide and you will have this question asked and most probably other technical questions you might have. You can see the documentation here: https://www.biddo.info/docs
Can you explain the installation on VPS from scratch to the end?
Hello,
Did you checkout the deployment documentation for the NodeJS server here (https://www.biddo.info/docs/server/deploy) and for the web application here (https://www.biddo.info/docs/web/publish)?
If you did and you need further information, please let me know. I did try to write as specific documentation as possible, so you should be able to understand from what I have in the provided links. Some technical knowledge might be required.
sir you make a video (Publish on A2 Hosting VPS) . can i use another vps company with sim steps ?
Theoretically yes. You could basically use any other similar VPS, as long as it can run NodeJS.
Hello, I have some questions before purchasing. 1. Can the administrator add or delete auctions in the control panel? 2. Can certain features be removed or disabled from the control panel, such as disabling the maps feature or the chat feature between users? 3. Is the installation method complicated, and does it require additional costs, such as purchasing hosting or a server? Please clarify if it is expensive and requires costs.
I await your response.
Hello!
1. No, the application was not built for the admin to create auctions. The admin can only remove auctions from the panel.
2. No, features cannot be disabled from the admin panel. If you want to remove a feature, you will need to remove it from the source code.
3. You will need to have a vps for the NodeJS server. That will imply additional costs.
Please go through the documentation I provide and make sure you understand what you are purchasing. As I am mentioning in the documentation, you will require some technical knowledge to publish the app, so please take this in consideration before purchasing.
I don’t understand the demo control panel. Can I change some settings? 1. Add new currencies or modify currency rates. 2. Cancel some languages. 3. Cancel payment methods. 4. Create Excel reports or print receipts.
So, the credentials that are public for the admin panel have read only permissions. This means that you cannot create/update/delete any entities from the panel. Now, to answer your questions more specific:
1. The currencies rates are taken every day from an online source. This means that even if you update the rates for a specific currency, the change you do is going to be overriden when the algorithm gets again the new values, in the next day. For the moment, only the currencies that you see in the admin panel are available. You might need technical knowledge to add new ones.
2. Unfortunately, you cannot cancel specific languages from the admin panel.
3. The payment methods that have proper credentials will be availalbe in the web application. If you don’t set credentials for PayPal, for example, this payment method won’t be available in the web application
4. Unfortunately no, you cannot export excel reports or print receipts at the moment.
Let me know if you have any other questions anytime.
Hi, I have a few questions about your own Terms of Service vs Envato Pty Ltd.
Your Terms of Service “Intellectual Property: Ownership: All content, trademarks, logos, and intellectual property rights related to the App are owned by the Company or its licensors. License: We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the App for personal, non-commercial purposes.”
You copied and pasted all types of words, like non-exclusive, non-transferable license and App for personal, non-commercial purposes.
I’m not a lawyer, but what you wrote there is like you don’t own anything. You purchased (wasted your money) the Biddo script, but you don’t own it, and you also can’t earn money from it. The biddo script is useless; if that’s true.
Hello,
I think this is the default licence CodeCanyon is setting for any product, as I did not add such things.
From my perspective, after you purchase the product, you are free to do whatever you like with it, as long as you are not re-selling it or use it on multiple domains. (You can resell it if you purchase the extended license)
I hope this is clear. If not, send me a new message anytime and I will do my best to help you.
I’m always confused, Regular vs Extended licences. Extended licences are good, for example, a freelance programmer who wants to do modifications by adding more features or reselling multiple scripts to their customers.
With a Regular licence, I think you can transfer or sell your one licence to a new owner only, right?
Thanks for clarifying
Yes, with extended license, you can do changes to the source code and resell it to other customers.
With regular license, you can do whatever you want with the source code, but you cannot resell it. You can basically use it for your own business only.
Hello, I would like to buy the source code, but I have a question. Can I make this auction so that I can only display products and users bid? I hope you understand what I mean. I don’t want multiple bidding applications. I just want to be the one who puts the products up for auction. Is that possible?
I think you also sent me a private message. I answered you there. If you did not send me a message, please let me know and I’ll write you a more detailed answer here.
Yes I got the answer thank you very much
Hi Thank you for your efforts in developing the application. Before making a purchase decision and moving forward with installation and deployment on a VPS server (with the help of a freelance developer), I would like to clarify a few important points. 1. Hosting Requirements
Could you please clarify what type of hosting is required to run the entire project (mobile app, web admin panel, and backend server)? Specifically: 1. Is it possible to host the project on shared hosting? If yes, what are the minimum required specs? 2. If shared hosting is not suitable, would a standard VPS (such as from Hostinger or Contabo, running Ubuntu) be sufficient? 3. Or does the project require cloud-based VPS solutions like AWS, DigitalOcean, etc.? 4. What are the minimum recommended specifications (RAM, CPU, storage, OS)? 5. Is it mandatory to use Docker, or can the backend run using plain NodeJS without Docker?
2. Technical Architecture & Code Structure
I’d also like to better understand the structure of the source code to assess its readiness and flexibility for future updates: 1. What types of files are included in the source code for each component (mobile app, web panel, backend)? 2. Are there any Docker Compose files or deployment scripts provided for easier installation? 3. Is the code well-structured and customizable (e.g. logos, colors, texts)? 4. Is there any documentation or a README file explaining the setup and deployment steps? 5. What type of database is currently being used (PostgreSQL? MongoDB?), and can it be hosted separately from the backend server? 6. Are there any payment gateway integrations or support for adding payment options specifically for the Middle East or Oman? Can you assist or guide with this in the future?
The purpose of these questions is to ensure that the project meets my needs and budget, and to help me choose the most appropriate hosting environment while preparing for deployment with a freelance developer.
Thanks again for your time and support. Best regards,
Hello,
Thank you for your nice feedback.
Hosting questions:
1. I did not try to host the application on a shared hosting, but as long as you can run NodeJS, you should be able to run this app as well. I do recommend having a VPS though.
2. Yes, a standard VPS should be just find.
3. It does not require AWS or google cloud hosting. It can be hosted there, but it is not required.
4. I am running multiple apps on an ubuntu VPS, with 1CPU, 1GB RAM, so it should be enough. If you want better performance, I do recommand having more RAM.
5. You can run the server as plain NodeJS, docker is not required. I do recommend it though.
Technical questions:
1, 2 and 3: You can find more information about what files are included and the overall architecture here for the NodeJS server (https://www.biddo.info/docs/server/architecture), here for the mobile app (https://www.biddo.info/docs/mobile-app/architecture) and here for the web app (https://www.biddo.info/docs/web/architecture). The code is well structured and it is super extensible.
4. This is the documentation: https://www.biddo.info/docs. Please read it before doing a purchase as you will have a lot more details about the app.
5. The supported database is PostgreSQL.
6. The mobile app has revenuecat integration for payments and the web app has stripe, paypal and razor pay. I can assist for additional payment providers integration as custom development.
Let me know if you have additional questions and I’ll do my best to help you.
Is there an update in the future or has the project developed this much? Best regards
Hello,
The product is currently stable and all the features that I had in the backlog were implemented. If multiple of my buyers are asking for some improvements, I can implement them. Other functionalities will be done only as custom development.
There is an ad deletion error. The ad is not deleted when a comment or message is sent.
Hello,
I just pushed a new version that fixes this. The fix is on the server only.
Can you now add a proximity listing distance feature to this project?
I’m sorry, but as I said before, new functionalities will be done only as custom development.
This is a deficiency that should be in the project, please add it to the project.
As I previously said, it is not a deficiency in the current business case of Biddo, it is only nice to have. If your business requires this, you can send me a private message and we can discuss about custom implementations.
hi sir ;
first of all your products look like ver good and stable.
I have a presale question ;
I am looking for a classified script and
Should I look for
Bazaryo – Sell & Buy, Gumtree like (full application with chat) or Biddo – Full Flutter auction app, NextJS web app, NodeJS server (with chat)
I think the biddo has bidding feature but are there any other major difference betweeb bazaryo and biddo ?
Hello,
Thank you for your feedback. Yes, the product are stable and feature rich.
Yes, you are correct. The only difference between Biddo and Bazaryo is the bidding feature.
Let me know if you have additional questions and I’ll do my best to help you.
hello sir can you implement a verification system before placing an auction? a verification and approval system, without this many people could scam others and place fake ads without the admins knowing their identity. regards
Hello,
Unfortunately this is not in my backlog and I don’t think such a functionality would be ok inside an auction platform. What if I’m trying to place a bid in the last seconds of the auction? What if there are multiple users that are bidding against each other on the last seconds of the auction? Who is going to manage/approve those bids?
From the admin panel, you can force the users to validate their email before creating an auction or a bid. Furthermore, one user can block another user from bidding on their auctions, so any possible damage can be a controlled a bit from there. Users can also report other users/auctions/bids.
Also, from the admin panel, you can set a price for each auction/bid for the users. So, if the users need to pay in order to create an auction/bid, I don’t think there would be any scams.
Let me know if this makes sense or you have any additional questions.
*I can only implement such a feature as custom development.
Yes sir i undestand but i say a verification system before publishing an auction so that the admin will know the data of the person publishing the auction. This is to make the platform more secure so as not to have users who can scam.
I understand now.
Unfortunately this is not in my backlog either, from 2 reasons: 1. A user needs to verify its email before creating an auction (admin panel setting)
2. By default, a user can post 2 auctions for free. After that, they will need to purchase coins in order to create more.
Having this in mind (from my perspective), any additional validation would only add delays inside the app, so in order for this to be implemented, it would be only as custom development.
Let me know if this makes sense.
hello sir, I gave a tip on one of the main important functions in terms of security. 1) yes you can verify the email but as we know today there are temporary emails and for scammers they are untraceable. For this reason it will be easy for scammers to publish scam auctions, creating two free auctions and then they will open a new account always with a fake email to publish other auctions. Even a simple user will be able to create multiple accounts with multiple emails and publish auctions endlessly without paying to publish the auction. For this reason a user verification system would be the best thing both for scammers and for those who want to publish for free without paying.
Yes, you are right. One user should really want to do damage in order to go through all these steps.
I added this functionality in the backlog, but I cannot give you an estimate on how long it is going to take to implement it, as it is with low priority.
If you have other proposals, feel free to come back with a message and we can have a discussion.
Multi sub categories and custom attributes are the most important. Hope you can add it
Unfortunately I do not have a release planned for this functionality in the near future. Currently, my focus is on custom development functionalities. I might add this feature, but I cannot give you an estimate on how long it is going to take.
