Implementing a Payment System for Student ID Cards on a Private Ethereum Blockchain
The problem CampusPay Reva solves
our solution aims to solve the the many problems that exist with traditional credit payment systems that use RFID card.
A PoA blockchain solution addresses these:
Centralization Risks
Traditional Issue: Centralized systems introduce single points of failure.
PoA Solution: Decentralizes control, reducing systemic vulnerability.
Security Vulnerabilities
Traditional Issue: Susceptible to fraud and data breaches.
PoA Solution: Employs robust encryption, enhancing security.
Lack of Transparency
Traditional Issue: Transactions are not easily traceable, affecting trust.
PoA Solution: Offers a transparent ledger for auditable records.
Smart Contracts for Incentives
Traditional Issue: Manual tracking for discounts leads to errors.
PoA Solution: Automates rewards and discounts, ensuring accuracy and efficiency.
Challenges we ran into
Setting up a custom blockchain for students was challenging due to the need to remove transaction fees and fine-tune numerous settings, which was a time-consuming process.
Connecting Python to blockchain was difficult due to limited Ethereum and private blockchain knowledge.
Compatibility issues with Ethereum API libraries caused significant time delays.
Integrating a third-party payment system was complex because of its stringent and specific requirements.
