    Pre-proposal Official DASH Checkout for Magento eCommerce

    Hi, I respect your opinion but this will be completely developed from scratch in accordance with the requirements detailed by Dash. Most payment methods will add another payment option to the checkout which in my opinion is not the way to do it. Having had a brief discussion with some of the...

    Pre-proposal Official DASH Checkout for Magento eCommerce

    Hi thankyou for your reply, as this is a pre-proposal I am open to making changes to the overall functionality through requirements gathering. I am also happy to include documentation for the extension once it is uploaded to the Magento marketplace and Github. In addition to project deliverables...

    Pre-proposal Official DASH Checkout for Magento eCommerce

    This pre-proposal is for the design and development of the official Dash Checkout extension for Magento eCommerce V1 and V2. I am a fulltime Certified Magento developer with over 5 years experience developing extensions and modules for ecommerce merchants using the Magento platform. I would...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I hope DASH doen't share that mentality :D!! Why do you think PayPal became so successful? Because it was bought by eBay and became the preffered payment method on the auction/markeplace website. As ecommerce and online shopping continued to grow individual merchants saw the benefit of adding...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I don't think calling a merchant "dumb" for not wanting to integrate is a convincing argument. Rather, you have answered your own question. Merchants will want to be paid out in their local currency because their suppliers take USD, GBP or EUR as do their staff, stakeholders and shareholders -...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I work with the Magento ecommerce framework which is one of the biggest platforms outhere and yes you can get any data from the platform in both directions. Dash will certainly need to have some sort of integration into that platform but they need to consider what merchants want not what Dash...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    The Amazon rumours have been around for years! Overstock accepted bitcoin before Dell etc... For merchants to agree to integrate DASH as a payment method in their checkout will depend a number of key factors. From my experience doing implementations for one of the biggest ecommerce platforms...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I think he had the right idea, I think Dash has to think in terms of ecommerce in parallel with the other fantastic stuff that it is doing because to think merchants (and I mean the big merchants) are going to start adding a new methods to their cart overnight for a technology that hasn't been...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I agree it has been a very good discussion, if I were a merchant I would be reluctant to have Dash added to my checkout as I wouldn't want to have my customer service people spend time explaining to customers what the new payment option in the checkout is. It would be costly for merchants to...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    Yes it could but why send users elsewhere? That's a bad business model in my opinion...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    Well, I would propose to build the middleware as I am a ecommerce developer and have experience in this field. But it seems there is no plan for an ecommerce shopping layer which I think is a mistake. The middleware would be "Plug n Play" to push product data and pull order information into the...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    This will provide Dash and merchants with enough quatative data to substantiate how much user adoption there is for digital currency use to warrant any alterations to their exisiting checkout. At the moment Dash has none.

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I think he is asking about the "Evolution marketplace", a term I have heard used sometimes by Evan and others. Evolution obviously is not responsible for selling products but the question seems to be more about what is the marketplace experience like when someone uses Evolution. Is there a...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    By selling their products directly on the Evolution platform to users of Evolution which would mean Evolution will need to have a shopping cart feature of it's own. For example, If I were a merchant (say a Converse) and I wanted to sell on Evolution I would connect my platform (in this case...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    Thanks for your understanding and clarity. I apologize if I wasn't as clear in posing the question. The trouble with the current direction (if it is the case) in convincing merchants to add a new feature to their existing checkout will create another barrier for merchant adoption which make the...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    It seems like nobody really understands the question or do not have a definitive answer but either way it is worrying :(

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    The question isn't if "DASH is shoppable" rather is "DASH Evolution shoppable"

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    So the answer is "No" it doesn't have an ecommerce shopping layer... Was that intentionally missed out or just not thought of yet?

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I think DASH Evolution will miss a massive market but it's not my project so I'll hold fire on my proposal since it doesn't support a shoppable inteface. I will still look forward to shopping with Dash in traditional brick n mortar stores though :) I think you will find it very difficult to...

    Will Dash Evloution be Shoppable?

    I've already checked that and realised it was written some time ago and is essentially putting the cart before the horse imo. For Dash Evolution to attract exisitng ecommerce mercahnts the platform has to be a shoppable marketplace where users can make purchases without leaving DE. When it...
