Core Features

1. Joint Venture Registration Program

This is the heart of Damascus Projects. We provide a secure environment for users to register as either investors or business managers. Each registrant goes through a verification process to ensure the credibility of the platform.

Investors can browse through verified business proposals and connect with partners.

Business Managers can submit detailed plans and seek funding or collaborations.

All participants are issued a unique customer user code (e.g., DP00123) which is used for tracking, verification, and identification throughout the platform.

2. Membership and Subscription Plans

Access to premium services and tools is granted through subscription-based membership plans, which are tiered to suit different needs and budgets.

Members receive access to premium business opportunities.

They can engage in exclusive investor forums and mentorship sessions.

Subscriptions are manually verified by admins for security and record-keeping.

Admins can upgrade, revoke, or customize membership plans directly from the backend.

Membership data is also displayed on the user dashboard and visible within admin tables for quick lookup and support.

3. Unique Customer Code System

Every registered user is automatically assigned a unique alphanumeric user code. This customer code is integral to:

Verifying user status

Admin search and filtering

Linking users with their membership data, hire-purchase agreements, or joint venture activities

Generating reports

This feature brings an additional layer of professionalism and data integrity to the system.

4. Admin Dashboard with Full Control

The platform features a custom-built admin page for WooCommerce, where administrators can:

View user name, email, phone number, user code, and membership status

Use a search filter to quickly locate users by code or other fields

Open a detailed panel showing real-time membership info when "View Details" is clicked

Manage, update, and export user records

This ensures efficiency and minimizes errors in user tracking or membership updates.

5. Damascus Memberships Plugin (In Development)

We are currently developing a custom plugin to replace and expand the functionalities of third-party membership tools like SUMO Memberships. The Damascus Memberships plugin will:

Accept and store customer user codes

Allow membership creation, upgrades, and expirations

Support WooCommerce integration for payments

Include frontend display for users via Elementor styling

Generate admin reports and send automatic email notifications

This gives Damascus Projects full control over the membership experience.

6. Hire Purchase & Asset Financing System (Coming Soon)

One of our most innovative features under development is the Hire Purchase Program, allowing users to acquire business-related products or services via flexible installment plans.
