Payment #78

I know we talked about this, we should keep it in mind for the release after this one. Online payments, with paypal, money back guarantee for the first session as insurance, maybe background check incentives for the tutors to agree to get paid online. If we ever incorporate a more complicated scheduling system where you can schedule sessions, it would be interesting if we could have it automatically schedule payments hands-free, as well.

This is definitely a feature we want to look into down the road. Once you get involved with payments though, you have to ensure the stability and security of the site and databases. We are a long way away.

For starters we should consider acquiring an SSL certificate for HTTPS.

Ooph, quick google search yields very expensive certificate issuances for pretty short time periods. This is something that would be useful to get through Northeastern's venture accelerator, I might be able to haggle us some money for a cert.
