Business logic

Next to plans prices differ depending on:● Individual or organization (VAT)● Edition of Liferay (additional costs per billing cycle for

PCE)

Difficult to manage with Braintree since:● No VAT calculations● Add-ons with Euro 0,- not possible

Business logic:● Yearly = 11 months also for PCE● Calculates if VAT (21%) should be paid


Getting a Firelay

1. Select product-plan combination2. Select edition-version combination3. Fill in credit card data4. Fill in billing information

a. Individual or organizationb. Country (NL, EU, outside EU)

5. Checks:a. Required fieldsb. Braintree verification credit cardc. Subscription incl. price FIS -> Braintreed. Braintree charges credit card and creates subscription

6. All checks ok -> FIS provisions Firelay

Disadvantages● Braintree leading for
