Project Overview

Lucky Shop is a next-generation e-commerce platform designed around a unique business model that combines traditional online shopping with a 10 BDT coupon-based product draw system.

Unlike conventional e-commerce platforms, Lucky Shop allows customers to purchase products directly or participate in product draws by purchasing low-cost coupons. Once all available coupons for a product are sold, the platform automatically initiates the draw and selects a winner through a dedicated random-selection system.

The platform was developed as a 100% custom-built solution using the MERN stack, with a scalable architecture designed to support future business expansion.


The Challenge

Lucky Shop required more than a standard e-commerce website. The business needed a platform capable of handling two different customer journeys within a single ecosystem:

  • Traditional product purchasing
  • Coupon-based product participation
  • Automated draw management
  • Real-time coupon sales tracking
  • Referral-based customer acquisition
  • Digital wallet management
  • Multiple payment methods
  • Real-time order and draw notifications
  • Comprehensive administrative control

The challenge was to bring these components together into one seamless, secure and scalable platform while maintaining a simple customer experience.


Our Solution

QuickTech IT developed a complete custom e-commerce ecosystem using React.js, Node.js, Express.js and MongoDB, supported by a three-tier architecture separating the presentation, business logic and data layers.

The platform was designed around two core revenue models:

01. Direct Purchase

Customers can browse products, add products to their cart, select payment methods, complete checkout and track their orders through the standard e-commerce journey.

02. Coupon Draw

Customers can purchase 10 BDT coupons associated with specific products. The system tracks coupon sales in real time and automatically initiates a draw when the coupon pool reaches 100% capacity. A random winner is selected from the eligible coupon holders and notified instantly.


Key Website Features

Modern E-Commerce Experience

The customer-facing website provides a complete shopping experience including:

  • Responsive homepage with promotional banners
  • Product categories and subcategories
  • Product search, filtering and sorting
  • Product variants such as size and color
  • Product image galleries
  • Shopping cart
  • Secure checkout
  • Multiple payment options
  • Order tracking
  • Customer account management
  • Coupon and wallet dashboard
  • Referral system
  • QR code support
  • Multilingual support

Custom Coupon Draw System

The coupon draw system is the core differentiating feature of Lucky Shop.

How It Works

Create Draw → Sell Coupons → Track Progress → Auto Trigger → Select Winner → Notify Winner

Administrators can create a coupon pool for a specific product and define the number of available tickets. Customers purchase 10 BDT coupons while a real-time counter displays the progress.

Once the coupon pool is completely sold, the system automatically initiates the draw process. The selected winner receives instant notifications, while the result is broadcast to participating users through the real-time communication layer.

The platform also maintains a complete draw history and provides administrative controls for coupon refunds and draw management.


Referral & Wallet System

To encourage organic customer growth, Lucky Shop includes a custom referral ecosystem.

Each registered customer receives a unique referral code. Referral rewards can be credited to the customer's wallet based on configurable business rules.

The internal wallet system supports:

  • Referral credits
  • Wallet top-up
  • Partial or full wallet payment during checkout
  • Withdrawal requests
  • Manual admin adjustments
  • Complete transaction history

Every wallet transaction is recorded with its associated timestamp, providing a transparent financial ledger.


Real-Time Experience

Real-time communication was implemented using Socket.IO, enabling the platform to instantly communicate important events to customers and administrators.

Real-time events include:

  • Order status updates
  • Coupon sales updates
  • Draw initiation
  • Draw results
  • Winner announcements
  • New notifications
  • Wallet balance updates

This creates a more interactive experience compared to a traditional static e-commerce platform.

The platform is designed to support both local and international payment processing.

Payment Technologies

  • SSLCommerz
  • bKash
  • Nagad
  • Rocket
  • Card payments
  • Stripe
  • International card processing with 3D Secure

The payment architecture also supports gateway callbacks and transaction status verification through dedicated API endpoints.
