tscargo Posted April 19, 2010 Share Posted April 19, 2010 Hi,I am looking for a shopping solution that allows me to sell services instead of products.In google I was pointed to Prestashop, but in the demo-admin area I cannot see a way to add a 'service'.What I need to do (and probably program myself) is add a step in the ordering process for the information that is required for the order of the service.The services I want to offer are SSL certificates (and domainnames etc).Any help or pointers into the right direction are welcome !Thanks,Taco Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 I just started to look into this also. Prestashop has the notion of "virtual products" that can be downloaded. This would seem to be close to what you want. In the back office choose a product and check the checkbox "Is this a downloadable product?" in the Infos tab of the product.

tscargo Posted May 27, 2010 Author Share Posted May 27, 2010 I don't think this is the way to go. A service is not a downloadable product. The certificate is ofcourse, but as that is the part that differs per order, I don't think this is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mark2 Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 It would be fairly simple to replace the downloadable product with a script that generates the correct certificate. You would need to change the default behavior of Prestashop. I'm doing something similar but for a pure service (the customer does not download anything). Adding a "feature" to the product named "service" lets me tag the product as a service then have different behaviors associated with it. For example replace the link to the downloadable product with a link to the certificate generation script. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozgur34 Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Hi Has anyone succeded to build a PS site that doesnt sell products but book services. For example, baby sitter site, or talent agency site, or modeling agency site where employers searches and finds employees in PS made site so for that finding service employees should upload their own profiles to be searchable in the site. So to be registered as member employees have to pay for site membership annually. Has anybody achieved doing similar? Or can that be achieved using PS? thnx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tuk66 Posted January 14, 2014 Share Posted January 14, 2014 I think downloadable products, probably together with attributes (product combinations) and customizations should be enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
