i was looking to setup some sorta automated phone card pin system.

 

like... after someone orders something from me via my webpage..

credit card.. paypal..

 

i then email them a pin number / phone number depending on the card they order from me. via a pin number database that i enter numbers(automatically)

 

anyone know a freeware program out there that would do something like that for me

 

thanks guys

Without searching, I don't know of any software off hand that will do what you ask, but this is a new field for me. Can I delve and draw a parallel? Are you looking for something similar to shareware purchasing/downloading program maybe? For example, if I buy a piece of shareware, I get an e-mail with a link to a download site/file and a password. I can then click on the link and enter the password to get the file.

 

So whatever backend service that is run from, I would imagine might also work for your scenario (phone # instead of link, pin instead of pass)?

 

Interesting.

I imagine that MySQL could certainly be secure enough to work, but also imagine that the frontend would have to ensure that security.

hi Lianna,

 

Yes that would prove relevant. Different Software would be considered different phone cards. Different password would work as the pins.

 

However the passwords would have to be set in a database and not randomly generated.

 

If that makes any sense.. Thank for your inquiry,

Dennis,

 

Sorry, still not coming up with anything affordable. By that I mean, there are some custom programs out there for sale, but in the thousands. (Figuring since you asked for freeware, that was a little off your mark.)

I found this https://www.eliteweaver.co.uk/antifraud/scr...p?page=Features it needs PHP4 installed and access to MySQL.

 

The following is from their site

 

Q: Can I sell phone pins or serial numbers?

A: Yes, our software now supports the sale of unique one time pin numbers or serial codes. You can add up to five custom fields to each pin and would suit software vendors selling trial unlock codes, phone resellers selling topup codes, calling card pins etc... You could even use it to sell lottery tickets if you wanted!

The price for a single domain license is just $49.95 and includes unlimited updates!

Hope it helps.

1automationwiz.com is set up to do this. Be prepared for a sizable monthly fee.

 

I forget what I used to pay... $45 per month maybe. But everything is automated.

Yes it is. But it's a quick solution to get you up and running and then you can tweak and improve your system later by building (or hiring someone to build) a script that does the same.

 

I'm the king of analysis paralysis but I've been healing myself by taking the motto : Finish it now, fix it later.
