Driver Application
Types of Driver
Our system offers the flexibility of facilitating order delivery through one of the two drivers types:
Freelance Drivers
- Freelance Drivers are drivers that can deliver orders received from more than one store and are not bound to a specific store.
- A store can always switch between Freelance Drivers, and store drivers to do their deliveries.
Store Drivers
- Every store can have its own drivers and they can do the last-mile delivery to the customer.
Multiple Deliveries
Drivers can accept and deliver more than 1 order on the app so that a store can dispatch multiple orders to a driver to optimize the deliveries and save on fuel cost.
A driver can accept, and deliver an order for ‘X’ address, and at the same time make a delivery to another address close to the previous address, or on the way to the third-order delivery address.
Proof Of Pickup (POP)
Admin can enable bag scan at the time of pickup. In case this is enabled the driver will have to scan the unique bar code on the bag to confirm, the driver has picked up the right order.
Proof Of Delivery (POD)
To ensure the delivery of an order, as a method of a double handshake, a driver can’t complete an order on the application without taking the customer signature on it. This can be enabled or disabled from the backend.
These signatures are stored with the order and can be accessed later for dispute handling.
The driver will also have to take a photo of the id card of the person who received the order in case there is any product in the order that requires the collection of id proof, for example, alcohol.
If contactless delivery was opted for then the driver has the additional option to take a photo of where the driver has left the order as proof that it was indeed delivered.
If bag scan is enabled then the driver will have to scan the barcodes generated for each bag in the order to further confirm the driver is dropping off the right bag to the right customer.
Assigned Orders
A driver is assigned an order directly or receives an order request giving him an option to either accept the order or reject it.
The assigned orders list shows all the orders assigned to the driver and each order consists of the following components:
- Order Status
- Delivery Fee
- Order ID
- Delivery Date & Time
- Store Name & Address
- Customer Name & Address
- Order Date & Time
- Order Type
Driver Presence: A driver can make himself available/unavailable for receiving orders by Going Online / Going Offline using the button on the top of the page.
Steps In Delivery Process
The delivery process is as follows:
- The driver is sent an order to accept in the case of ASAP delivery orders
- The driver is sent an entire batch of orders if they were managed in shifts ( this is assigned and the driver does not have to accept it )
- Driver visits the store to pick up the orders first. The pickup might require the driver to pick up multiple orders.
- The driver scans each bag linked with the order. The driver can complete the pickup only after scanning each bag. This is an optional process and can be enabled or disabled from the backend admin.
- The driver completes all pickups from the store and then starts each delivery.
- Driver arrives at first drop.
- The driver can notify the customer of arrival, this is geotagged so the driver has to be in a 50 m range of the address to update this status.
- The driver drops the items if the customer is not available the driver can mark the order for REATTEMPT or can cancel the delivery.
- On reattempt, the driver tries to deliver the order again and an extra delivery fee might be applied.
- On cancellation of delivery, the driver has to return the order back to the store.
- Returns will have to be confirmed by the store manager with a signature.
Reattempt Delivery Management
If a customer is not available at the address, the driver can re-attempt to do the delivery later but has to update the status with a reason so that the system admin knows that a re-attempt happened.

FAQ'S
All our products can be scaled vertically and horizontally. All the backend components can be dockerized and clustered. Our products are built to support 100’s of thousands of users. A good solid server infrastructure as shown below is a good example of a configuration built for scale.
We are deeply inspired by the popular apps we create CLONE PRODUCTS off but we by no means acquire any source code from any of these awesome companies and products.
We have taken strong and definitive steps to ensure we don’t step any legal boundaries with any other popular product. We use the word CLONE mostly as a marketing trick and we in NO WAY reverse engineer any app to make our products. All our products have been built ground up in the company.
We have also taken steps to ensure we add unique flavors into the product to guarantee they stand out in the market-place. We have also ensured we put in unique UI elements so that it does not look exactly the same as any other popular product.
Most secure app infrastructure in the market where security extends from the mobile app to the API’s.
- Use of keychain on iOS and Android to store all credentials.
- All API’s are secured with a wildcard SSL certificate.
- Use of JWT and JWE for securing all API’s.
- Load Balancer supported for horizontal scaling.
- All customer data on the server is encrypted using 128 bit AES encryption.
- Tele call between patient and healthcare professional is via secure WebRTC which is running on a secure WebRTC gateway which in-turn is running on a on-premise ( self hosted or cloud hosted ) server infrastructure.
- Rate limit API and controller access to minimize the harm from automated attack tooling.
- App secured from any DB injection.
- App protected from clickjacking protection, XSS, MIME-Sniffing, HSTS, HPKP or set the CORS settings.
- Security headers are enabled.
- Scripts are not deployed with default credentials, particularly for admin users.
- Uses a server-side, secure, built-in session manager that generates a new random session ID with high entropy after login. Session IDs should not be in the URL. Ids should also be securely stored and invalidated after logout, idle, and absolute timeouts.
- JWT tokens are invalidated on the server after logout.
At the time of writing this page we have no RESELLERS of our products. We also don’t allow any of our customers to re-sell the product once they acquire it from us. We do share the source code of the product with our customers but we provide them with a perpetual license which is bound by a contract that we sign when we are issued a purchase order. There is no license key in our software products but the legal contract that we sign prohibits our customers from re-selling our source code to any one else.
We built Appscrip.com with a mission to accelerate your journey to become an entrepreneur. Every entrepreneur’s dream is to be acquired for multi million dollars and therefore we in no way prohibit you from selling your company to anybody else. The perpetual license will be transferred to the company that acquires your company and the same rules from point (4) will apply to that company as well.
We sign NDA with our clients to ensure we don’t disclose their idea to anybody else. We usually have a product road map and all our products have a rate card that details what features we have on them and what are coming out soon. Anything outside that list can be protected with an NDA that we readily agree to sign. Therefore, your idea is perfectly safe with us.
We provide free patches for bugs on our core products for a year after purchase. These patches are supplied via GIT pushes to your source code repository. We however don’t do the actual code merge etc for you as that would cost us man hours.
We have paid support plans available. We know our apps best so for most of our customers it makes a lot of sense to hire our team for support. We have different support packages available depending on the SLA required ( Service Level Agreements).
Logically thinking if you do buy our app and you want to customize it, there is no better team than ours to do it for you since we have developed all the underlying base code.
We have the biggest range of pre-built business applications in the market that cover several business models. We built all these products with the sole aim of reducing time to market and cost to market for our customers.
On average it costs over $100,000 to build most of these products that we have, so using them as a base to build your customized business idea will definitely bring your costs and time down significantly.
Most custom software development companies pitch you a full project plan to develop a product from scratch, a process that might take months and cost you pot loads of money, where-as we pull something out from our repotriotire, customize it and voila we have you a product in let’s say 60 days 🙂
In case you do have an idea that is not similar to any of our pre-built products we can surely develop something totally custom, from scratch for you. We will try to re-use some of the micro-services and reusable software components to do some rapid application development.
We have done this successfully for large corporations who have raised multi million dollars in venture capital funds. Our team comes with a strong technical expertise in a broad range of technologies that cover:
- API Development – GoLang, Node.JS, Python, Elixir (Erlang)
- App Development – iOS ( Swift, Objective C) , Android (Java, Kotlin), Flutter, React Native
- Web Application Development – React.JS, AngularJS 9.0, Next.JS, Vue.JS
- Data Science & Analytics – Apache Kafka, Apache Spark, Apache Flink, Hadoop
- Blockchain- Hyperledger
- Desktop Application – Electron JS
The major costs involved for running applications of such nature are as follows:
- Server costs for hosting the API’s and Database – A decent configuration on AWS / Azure / Google / Digitalocean will cost you anywhere between $150-$200/month.
- Content Delivery Network – Apps such as these require the content to be delivered seamlessly with low latency and low bandwidth consumption. We use a CDN to ensure we are doing image / video transformations to maintain content quality at different network speeds and different devices.
- Text messages for verification codes – We generally use Twilio for sending text messages. The price for this depends on the country and can be tracked here @ https://www.twilio.com/pricing.
- Transactional emails – We generally use services like Sendgrid, Mailgun or Amazon SES for sending transactional emails. All these services usually have a free tier that should hold good for new apps.
- SSL – We secure all our apps via a Wildcard SSL certificate that secures all sub domains for a particular domain name. This is important for security. A pretty affordable place to get one will be here @ https://www.ssl2buy.com/alphassl-wildcard.php
- Cloudflare – We use Cloudflare as a firewall and also often to manage the domain. It has a free tier and that usually is good enough. If under attack like maybe a DDOS attack , Cloudflare can prove to be a pretty solid first layer of defence.
- Google Map API – We use google map api’s for tagging locations with a post and also for sharing locations inside the chat. A google map API key with billing enabled is required to use this service.
- Apple Developer Account – An apple developer account is required to host the app under your name. An account costs $99/year. Individual accounts are pretty easy to create but if you need the app to show under your company name then you will need to apply for a company account and that requires a DUNS number that you will need to first acquire to get listed as a developer with apple. Follow steps here @ https://learn.buildfire.com/en/articles/477266-how-to-create-an-apple-developer-account-and-enroll-in-the-program
- Google Play Developer Account – A google play developer account is required to host an app under your name / your company’s name on the Android play store. This costs $25 one time. You can get a google play developer account here @ https://play.google.com/apps/publish/signup/#EnterDetailsPlace.
- Domain Name – A domain name is required to host the API’s / website etc. A domain name can be bought from sources like GoDaddy etc. Price of a domain name really depends on its availability etc.
