Project Overview
The project required a secure, user-friendly membership signup flow with a built-in referral system, a member dashboard, Stripe payment integration for a one-time annual fee, automated transactional emails, and a simple professional logo to strengthen brand identity. CnEL India took responsibility for full setup and configuration on the client’s GoDaddy hosting and Stripe account.
Scope of Work
- User Registration with Referral Code: Unique referral code generated at signup and displayed in the member panel.
- Member Panel: Secure login where users can view signup details (name, email, referral code, membership status).
- Payment Integration: Stripe integration to collect a one-time fee of $49 per signup per year.
- Email Auto-Responder: Automated email dispatch with signup details and the user’s unique referral code upon successful registration.
- Basic Logo Design: A clean, professional logo to improve brand consistency across the site and emails.
- Access & Configuration: Setup and configuration using the client’s GoDaddy hosting and Stripe payment gateway credentials.
Challenges
- Seamless payment experience: Ensure Stripe integration is secure, PCI-compliant, and frictionless across devices.
- Referral code uniqueness & tracking: Generate collision-free codes and display them reliably in the member dashboard immediately after signup.
- Reliable email confirmations: Trigger timely emails containing membership details and referral codes while avoiding spam filters and ensuring deliverability.
- Quick deployment on existing hosting: Configure the system on GoDaddy with minimal downtime and correct DNS/payment webhook setup.
Our Solution
CnEL India implemented a streamlined, secure membership system that combined robust backend logic with a clean user interface. Key technical and process highlights:

- Stripe Integration: Implemented Stripe Checkout (or Stripe Elements, as required) to securely process the $49 annual fee. Webhooks configured to update membership status automatically upon successful payment.
- Member Panel: Authenticated area where users can view/edit profile details, see their referral code, and check membership validity.
- Email Automation: Transactional email system configured (SMTP / transactional provider) to send signup confirmations containing the referral code and membership instructions.
- Branding: Delivered a simple, professional logo suitable for web and email use, matching the site’s visual tone.
- GoDaddy & Stripe Setup: Completed DNS, hosting configuration, SSL setup, and Stripe account linkage; tested webhooks and payment flows end-to-end.
