The Licensing Server is used to issue licenses for Arc and provide the Buy portal. It integrates with:
- Stripe: An account is created in Stripe for each customer that purchases through the Buy page. Credit card details are also added from the Token on Buy page. We use a Stripe charge to deduct money from the customers credit card.
- S3 - cubewise-code: The licenses and a basic customer file are stored in the cubewise-code bucket in Amazon S3.
- Zoho Books: Invoices are managed in Zoho Books. When a customer purchases Arc they are created as a Contact in Zoho and a recurring-invoice is created. There recurring invoice then creates an invoice that is either "charged" through Stripe or paid through a bank transfer.
