What's live, what's coming, and what we've decided not to build

A feature doesn't ship until it can be done well. Not perfect — well. Here's where everything stands.

What's live

  1. Storefront architecture. Every seller has a dedicated shop page with collections, location, and featured products.

  2. Wallet (Prepaid Credit + AutoBonus). Buyers can hold a balance on the platform and apply it at checkout. Top-ups go through Curlec. AutoBonus accumulates alongside Prepaid Credit.

  3. Promotions. Sellers can create discount conditions against their own listings. Seller-controlled, not platform-driven.

  4. Order management and fulfilment flow. Full order lifecycle from placement through fulfilment, confirmation, and settlement.

  5. Settlement and payout. Pending and completed payout views, payout account configuration, and manual payout request.

What's in progress

  1. Product reviews. The rating architecture exists. What's being finalised is the review collection flow — specifically, how the system captures outcome (did the part work) rather than just transaction satisfaction (did it arrive). Getting this wrong produces the same unusable star aggregate every other platform has.

  2. Campaign infrastructure. Banner impression tracking is already instrumented. The campaign management layer — structured promotional events sellers can participate in — is being built on top of it.

  3. Chassis number lookup. Compatible parts lookup from vehicle registration or chassis data. Not released yet because partial coverage is worse than no coverage — a lookup that works for some vehicles and not others generates false confidence. Data coverage is being resolved before the feature ships.

What we've decided not to build for now

  • Urgency mechanics. Countdown timers, 'X people viewing this' notifications. These exist to shorten deliberation time. Deliberation is not the problem we're solving.

  • Platform-controlled flash sales. We don't spend seller margin on platform acquisition. Promotions on Driwego are seller-initiated.

Unverified seller badges. A badge that costs nothing to obtain means nothing. Seller verification infrastructure is being built before any verification claim is surfaced to buyers.
