Important – Third-Party Services and Possible Costs

Bookly is a complete, self-hosted package. You receive the full source code for all three projects, with no licence keys and no subscription payable to us.

Some features connect to third-party services. Those services are not included in this purchase. Each one is billed to you directly by its provider, under that provider’s own terms and pricing.

Please note: buyers are responsible for any and all fees charged by external services. This includes hosting, developer accounts, app store commissions, payment processing fees, storage, email delivery and any usage beyond a provider’s free tier. None of these fees are part of the item price, and none of them are collected by us.

The services Bookly can use, and what they typically cost, are listed below. Please review this list before buying.

• Hosting (required): any VPS or cloud host with Node.js 20+ and PostgreSQL 14+. Paid, billed by your hosting provider.
• Firebase (required for the mobile app): Authentication for Google and Apple sign-in, Cloud Firestore and Cloud Messaging for push notifications. Free Spark plan covers typical usage; usage-based beyond it, billed by Google.
• Apple Developer Program (required to publish on iOS): USD 99 per year, paid to Apple.
• Google Play Developer account (required to publish on Android): USD 25 one-time, paid to Google.
• Transactional email, any SMTP provider (required for email sign-up): sign-up uses email OTP verification. Free tiers are common; paid above them.
• In-app purchases, Google Play Billing and Apple In-App Purchase (optional): Apple and Google take a commission on every sale, typically 15-30%. The backend verifies purchases directly with the Google Play Developer API and the App Store Server API.
• Subscription management, RevenueCat (optional): free tier available; paid above their revenue threshold.
• Online payments, PipraPay (optional): hosted web checkout for book purchases, rentals and subscriptions; per-transaction fees set by the provider.
• Not integrated – bKash, Nagad, SSLCommerz, Stripe: these names can be selected in the admin panel’s Payment Gateways screen but no checkout integration for them is included in this version. Adding one is your own development work.
• Push notifications, Firebase Cloud Messaging (optional): free tier available; usage-based beyond it.
• Advertising, Google AdMob (optional): free to integrate; you earn revenue, subject to AdMob terms.
• File storage / CDN, Cloudflare R2 or Bunny.net (optional): usage-based; local disk storage also works at no extra cost.
• Google Fonts (optional): the app and admin panel load their fonts from Google Fonts at run time. Free; bundle the font files yourself to avoid it.
• IP geolocation, ip-api.com (optional): detects the reader’s country for regional pricing. Free for non-commercial use; their paid plan is required for commercial use.
• Reader look-ups – Free Dictionary API, Wikipedia API, Google Translate (optional): free public services used by the in-reader dictionary, Wikipedia and translation tools. No account needed; availability is not guaranteed by their operators.

The item price covers the source code and documentation only. You will need hosting, a Firebase project, and an Apple and/or Google developer account to publish to the stores. Every service marked optional can be left out; the platform runs without it, with the matching feature switched off. The full list, including who bills you for each service, is repeated in the documentation’s Third-Party Services and Costs table. Third-party pricing is outside our control and may change, so please check each provider’s current rates before you buy. We support our own code, but we cannot support, waive or refund any third-party service fees or account approvals.

Backend Architecture and Security

The Bookly backend is built with NestJS and PostgreSQL, providing a strong foundation for building and scaling a modern eBook platform.

• NestJS Backend: Built using a modern and structured Node.js framework, organised into clear feature modules for maintainable server-side development.
• PostgreSQL Database: Uses PostgreSQL as the primary relational database for reliable and structured data management, with multilingual content stored as JSONB.
• Paginated APIs: List endpoints are paginated with a consistent response envelope, so large catalogues stay responsive.
• Background Jobs: Optional job queue for scheduled work such as rental-expiry reminders and scheduled notifications.
• Built-in Security: Security headers, configurable rate limiting with stricter limits on login and registration, a CORS allowlist, and bcrypt password hashing.
• Protected Book Files: Book files are only served to readers who purchased, rented, or subscribed to that title, with optional expiring signed links to prevent link sharing.
• Flexible File Storage: Store files on Cloudflare R2, Bunny.net, or local disk – selected automatically from your configuration.
• Scalable Architecture: The backend is maintained as a separate project, allowing you to scale and deploy it independently from the mobile application and admin panel.
• Easy Maintenance: A structured backend architecture makes it easier for developers to add new APIs, features, integrations, and business logic.

Easy and Secure Configuration

To make deployment and customization easier, environment-specific configurations and required credentials are managed through .env files.

• Environment-Based Configuration: Configure server, database, authentication, storage, and third-party service credentials through environment variables.
• Fully Documented: Every supported environment variable is documented with its default and purpose in .env.example.
• Credential Separation: Sensitive environment-specific credentials are separated from the application source code.
