COMPLETE RETHINK — from monitoring dashboard to message design studio.
## The Big Idea
Aaisha doesn't need a dashboard that says 'is it working?'
She needs a studio where she can SEE what Ahmed sees on his phone,
EDIT the words, TEST different approaches, and DESIGN cross-channel
sequences. The WhatsApp phone mockup is the star.
## New: Phone Mockups (3 channels)
- WhatsApp: green bubbles, blue ticks, org avatar, chat wallpaper,
full formatting (*bold*, _italic_, `code`, ━━━ dividers)
- Email: macOS mail client chrome, From header, subject line
- SMS: iOS Messages style, grey bubbles, contact avatar
## New: Template Editor
- Editable templates per step (receipt, day 2, 7, 14) per channel
- Live preview in phone mockup as you type
- Variable insertion chips: {{name}}, {{amount}}, {{reference}}, etc.
- Subject line editor for email channel
- Character count + SMS segment counter
## New: A/B Testing
- Create Variant B of any step/channel message
- 50/50 split traffic automatically
- Track sent count + conversion rate (paid after receiving)
- Side-by-side stats: 'A: 33% paid, B: 54% paid ★'
- Delete variant to revert to single message
## New: Channel Strategy Matrix
- 3 presets: Waterfall (default), Belt & Suspenders, Escalation
- Visual matrix: steps × channels with status indicators
- 1st = primary, fb = fallback, + = parallel send
- Waterfall: WhatsApp → SMS → Email (most cost-effective)
- Belt & Suspenders: all channels for receipts + final
- Escalation: start gentle (WA only), add channels as urgency increases
## New: Customizable Timing
- Each step's delay is editable inline (dropdown next to phone)
- Default: Day 2, Day 7, Day 14
- Can change to any schedule: Day 1, Day 3, Day 21, Day 28
## Schema: 2 new models
- MessageTemplate: per-org editable templates with A/B variants
(step, channel, variant, body, subject, splitPercent, sentCount, convertedCount)
- AutomationConfig: per-org timing + strategy + channel matrix
## API: /api/automations (GET/PATCH/DELETE)
- GET seeds defaults on first load (12 templates: 4 steps × 3 channels)
- PATCH upserts templates and config
- DELETE removes variant B and resets A to 100%
## Default templates (src/lib/templates.ts)
Extracted from hardcoded whatsapp.ts + reminders.ts into editable templates:
- WhatsApp: receipt, gentle, impact, final (with emoji + formatting)
- Email: receipt, gentle, impact, final (with cancel/pledge URLs)
- SMS: receipt, gentle, impact, final (160-char optimized)
## Architecture
templates.ts → resolvePreview() fills {{variables}} with examples
templates.ts → resolveTemplate() fills {{variables}} with real data
messaging.ts → sendToDonor() routes via channel waterfall
automations/route.ts → seeds + CRUD for templates + config
## Visual: Step timeline at top
4 tabs across the top with emoji, timing, description
Active step is dark (111827), others are white
Click to switch — editor and phone update together
## Layout
[Step Timeline — 4 tabs across top]
[Phone Mockup (left) | Editor (right)]
[Channel Strategy — expandable matrix]
[Live Feed — condensed stats + scheduled + messages]
THE STAR OF THE SHOW — the automation engine is now visible.
## New: Unified Messaging Layer (src/lib/messaging.ts)
Channel waterfall: WhatsApp → SMS → Email
- sendToDonor() routes to best available channel
- Respects donor consent flags (whatsappOptIn, emailOptIn)
- Falls back automatically if primary channel fails
- Every attempt logged to AnalyticsEvent for dashboard
## New: Email Integration (src/lib/email.ts)
Bring-your-own-key: charity pastes their Resend or SendGrid API key
- Resend: free 3,000 emails/month
- SendGrid: free 100/day
- Messages come from THEIR domain (donations@mymosque.org)
- Plain text auto-converted to clean HTML
## New: SMS Integration (src/lib/sms.ts)
Bring-your-own-key: charity pastes their Twilio credentials
- Pay-as-you-go (~3p per SMS)
- UK number normalization (07xxx → +447xxx)
- Reaches donors without WhatsApp or email
## New: /dashboard/automations — the visible engine
A. Dark hero stats: Messages this week per channel + delivery rate
B. Live channels: WhatsApp/Email/SMS with status, features, stats
C. The Pipeline: visual 4-step automation sequence
- What triggers, what's sent, which channels, waterfall explanation
D. Scheduled reminders: upcoming messages with timing
E. Message feed: recent messages with channel icon, status, time
## New: /api/messaging/status — dashboard data endpoint
Returns channels, stats (7 day), history (50 recent), pending reminders
## New: /api/messaging/test — send test message to admin
## Schema: 8 new Organization columns
emailProvider, emailApiKey, emailFromAddress, emailFromName
smsProvider, smsAccountSid, smsAuthToken, smsFromNumber
## Settings: 2 new channel rows in the checklist
- Email: provider selector (Resend/SendGrid) + API key + from address
- SMS: Twilio credentials + from number
Both follow the same checklist expand/collapse pattern
## Nav: Automations added between Money and Reports
Home → Collect → Money → Automations → Reports → Settings
## Stats tracking
Messages logged as AnalyticsEvent:
message.whatsapp.receipt.sent
message.email.reminder_1.failed
message.sms.reminder_2.sent
Donor PII masked in logs (last 4 digits of phone, email obfuscated)
Model: PNPL never touches the money. Each charity connects their own
Stripe account by pasting their API key in Settings. When a donor
chooses card payment, they're redirected to Stripe Checkout. The money
lands in the charity's Stripe balance.
## Schema
- Organization.stripeSecretKey (new column)
- Organization.stripeWebhookSecret (new column)
## New/rewritten files
- src/lib/stripe.ts — getStripeForOrg(secretKey), per-org client
- src/app/api/stripe/checkout/route.ts — uses org's key, not env var
- src/app/api/stripe/webhook/route.ts — tries all org webhook secrets
- src/app/p/[token]/steps/card-payment-step.tsx — redirect to Stripe
Checkout (no fake card form — Stripe handles PCI)
## Settings page
- New 'Card payments' section between Bank and Charity
- Instructions: how to get your Stripe API key
- Webhook setup in collapsed <details> (optional, for auto-confirm)
- 'Card payments live' green banner when connected
- Readiness bar shows Stripe status (5 columns now)
## Pledge flow
- PaymentStep shows card option ONLY if org has Stripe configured
- hasStripe flag passed from /api/qr/[token] → PaymentStep
- Secret key never exposed to frontend (only boolean hasStripe)
## How it works
1. Charity pastes sk_live_... in Settings → Save
2. Donor opens pledge link → sees 'Bank Transfer', 'Direct Debit', 'Card'
3. Donor picks card → enters name + email → redirects to Stripe Checkout
4. Stripe processes payment → money in charity's Stripe balance
5. (Optional) Webhook auto-confirms pledge as paid
Payment options:
- Bank Transfer: zero fees (default, always available)
- Direct Debit via GoCardless: 1% + 20p (if org configured)
- Card via Stripe: standard Stripe fees (if org configured)
Stripe was wired up but never used:
- No STRIPE_SECRET_KEY in .env
- Card payment step had a 'simulated fallback' that pretended to charge
- Stripe fees (1.4% + 20p) contradict '100% goes to charity' brand promise
- Bank transfer is the primary rail, GoCardless (DD) is the secondary
Removed:
- src/lib/stripe.ts (Stripe client, checkout sessions, webhooks)
- src/app/api/stripe/checkout/route.ts
- src/app/api/stripe/webhook/route.ts
- src/app/p/[token]/steps/card-payment-step.tsx (263 lines)
- 'stripe' and '@stripe/stripe-js' npm packages
- Card option from PaymentStep (payment-step.tsx)
- Card references from confirmation-step.tsx, success/page.tsx
- Stripe from landing page integrations grid
- Stripe from privacy policy sub-processors
- Stripe from terms of service payment references
Type Rail changed: 'bank' | 'gocardless' | 'card' → 'bank' | 'gocardless'
Pledge flow bundle: 19.5kB → 18.2kB (-1.3kB)
Payment options donors now see:
1. Bank Transfer (recommended, zero fees)
2. Direct Debit via GoCardless (1% + 20p, hassle-free)
GIFT AID (HMRC compliance):
- Exact HMRC model declaration text displayed and recorded
- Home address (line 1 + postcode) collected when Gift Aid is ticked
- giftAidAt timestamp recorded separately from the boolean
- Declaration text, donor name, timestamp stored in consentMeta JSON
EMAIL + WHATSAPP (GDPR/PECR compliance):
- Separate, granular opt-in checkboxes (not bundled, not pre-ticked)
- Each consent records: exact text shown, timestamp, consent version
- Consent checkboxes only appear when relevant contact info is provided
- Cron reminders gated on consent — no sends without opt-in
- Pledge creation WhatsApp receipt gated on whatsappOptIn
AUDIT TRAIL (consentMeta JSON on every pledge):
- giftAid: {declared, declarationText, declaredAt}
- email: {granted, consentText, grantedAt}
- whatsapp: {granted, consentText, grantedAt}
- IP address captured server-side from x-forwarded-for
- User agent captured client-side
- consentVersion field for tracking wording changes
EXPORTS:
- CRM CSV now includes: donor_address, donor_postcode, gift_aid_declared_at,
is_zakat, email_opt_in, whatsapp_opt_in
- Gift Aid export has full HMRC-required fields
Schema: 6 new columns on Pledge (donorAddressLine1, donorPostcode,
giftAidAt, emailOptIn, whatsappOptIn, consentMeta)
POSITIONING FIX — PNPL is NOT just 'QR codes at events':
- Charities collecting at events (QR per table)
- High-net-worth donor outreach (personal links via WhatsApp/email)
- Org-to-org pledges (multi-charity projects)
- Personal fundraisers (LaunchGood/Enthuse redirect)
TERMINOLOGY (throughout app):
- Events → Campaigns (sidebar, pages, create dialogs, onboarding)
- QR Codes page → Pledge Links (sharing-first, QR is one option)
- Scans → Clicks (not just QR scans)
- 'New Event' → 'New Campaign'
- 'Create QR Code' → 'Create Pledge Link'
- Source label: 'Table Name' → 'Source / Channel'
SHARING (pledge links page):
- 4-button share row: Copy · WhatsApp · Email · More (native share)
- Each link shows its full URL
- Create dialog suggests: 'WhatsApp Family Group, Table 5, Instagram Bio'
- QR code is still shown but as one option, not the hero
LANDING PAGE (complete rewrite):
- Hero: 'Collect pledges. Convert them into donations.'
- 4 use case cards: Events, HNW Donors, Org-to-Org, Personal Fundraisers
- 'Share anywhere' section: WhatsApp, QR, Email, Instagram, Twitter, 1-on-1
- Platform support: Bank Transfer, LaunchGood, Enthuse, JustGiving, GoFundMe, Any URL
- Islamic fund types section: Zakat, Sadaqah, Sadaqah Jariyah, Lillah, Fitrana
ZAKAT & FUND TYPES:
- Organization.zakatEnabled toggle in Settings
- Pledge.fundType: general, zakat, sadaqah, lillah, fitrana
- Identity step: fund type picker (5 options) when org has zakatEnabled
- Zakat note: Quran 9:60 categories reference
- Settings: toggle card with fund type descriptions
FUND ALLOCATION:
- Event.fundAllocation: 'Mosque Building Fund', 'Orphan Sponsorship' etc.
- Charities can also add external URL for reference/allocation (not just fundraisers)
- Shows on campaign cards and pledge flow
AUTH0 SETUP (done via Management API):
- Created 'Pledge Now Pay Later' app (regular_web) on quikcue.us.auth0.com
- Enabled connections: Google, Apple, Username-Password
- Callback: https://pledge.quikcue.com/api/auth/callback/auth0
- Client ID: hpr7JcEAAk3Q5ADkzyyZSRDxGIZTcjRJ
CODE CHANGES:
- Auth0Provider added to NextAuth alongside existing CredentialsProvider
- findOrCreateSocialUser(): first Google login auto-creates org + user
- Login page: 'Continue with Google' button at top, email/password below
- Signup page: 'Sign up with Google' button at top, form below
- JWT callback: resolves Auth0 users to DB users on every token refresh
- Docker compose: AUTH0_CLIENT_ID, AUTH0_CLIENT_SECRET, AUTH0_ISSUER env vars
FLOW:
- Click 'Continue with Google' → Auth0 Universal Login → Google consent
- First time: auto-creates '{Name}'s Charity' org + org_admin user
- Return time: finds existing user, loads their org
- Demo login still works via credentials provider
AUTH:
- NextAuth with credentials provider (bcrypt password hashing)
- /api/auth/signup: creates org + user in transaction
- /login, /signup pages with clean minimal UI
- Middleware protects all /dashboard/* routes → redirects to /login
- Session-based org resolution (no more hardcoded 'demo' headers)
- SessionProvider wraps entire app
- Dashboard header shows org name + sign out button
LANDING PAGE:
- Full marketing page at / with hero, problem, how-it-works, features, CTA
- 'Get Started Free' → /signup → auto-login → /dashboard/setup
- Clean responsive design, no auth required for public pages
WAHA QR FIX:
- WAHA CORE doesn't expose QR value via API or webhook
- Now uses /api/screenshot (full browser capture) with CSS crop to QR area
- Settings panel shows cropped screenshot with overflow:hidden
- Auto-polls every 5s, refresh button
MULTI-TENANT:
- getOrgId() tries session first, then header, then first-org fallback
- All dashboard APIs use session-based org
- Signup creates isolated org per charity
CORE PRODUCT SHIFT:
A pledge is now a promise to pay on a future date, not just 'pay now'.
NEW FLOW: Amount → Schedule → Payment/Identity → Confirmation
SCHEDULE STEP (/p/[token] step 1):
- 'Pay right now' — existing card/DD/bank flow
- 'Pay on a specific date' — calendar picker with smart suggestions
(This Friday, End of month, Payday 1st, In 2 weeks, In 1 month)
- 'Split into monthly payments' — 2/3/4/6/12 month installment plans
with per-installment breakdown and date schedule
SCHEMA CHANGES:
- Pledge.dueDate — when the donor promises to pay (null = now)
- Pledge.planId — groups installment pledges together
- Pledge.installmentNumber / installmentTotal — e.g. 2 of 4
- Pledge.reminderSentForDueDate — tracking flag
- New indexes on dueDate+status and planId
INSTALLMENT PLANS:
- Creates N linked Pledge records with shared planId
- Each installment gets its own reference, due date, reminders
- Reminders: 2 days before, on due date, 3 days after, 10 days after
- WhatsApp receipt shows full plan summary
DEFERRED SINGLE PLEDGES:
- Reminders anchored to due date, not creation date
- 'Pay on date' → reminders: 2 days before, on day, +3d nudge, +10d final
- WhatsApp preferred when phone number provided
DASHBOARD:
- API returns dueDate, planId, installment info for each pledge
- Confirmation step shows schedule details for deferred pledges
