# Open Questions & To-Do Backlog

[← Product docs home](../index.md)

From `whatsInYourMind.txt` — things to build, research, or decide. Some are now resolved in the
refined data model; marked below.

---

## Build / surface backlog

- **Ticket page** — the admin-readable messaging surface; modeled in
  [Messaging (ticket system)](../data-model/09-messaging.md) and required by
  [Messaging & On-Site Emergencies](../business/12-messaging-and-emergencies.md).
- **Backoffice / admin** — see [Notifications & Admin / Backoffice](../business/14-notifications-and-admin.md).
- **Verify the registration code** — OTP confirmation step in onboarding.
- **Rate limiting** — abuse protection on auth/OTP and API.
- **Workbox for cache** (maybe) — PWA/offline caching, client-side.

## Needs research

- **Terms of Service page** — *(needs research)*.
- **Privacy & Policy page** — *(needs research)*.

## Resolved questions (kept for the record)

These were the two hardest open questions; both are now **answered** against verified payment
research and built into the model.

- ~~اگر پرداخت قسطی داشته باشیم و طرف اون وسط بخواد کنسل کنه چی میشه؟~~
  **(BNPL booking cancelled mid-plan — what happens?)** → Resolved. Money always flows
  `customer ↔ provider ↔ Balinyaar`; Balinyaar calls the provider's revert/cancel/update API and the
  provider unwinds the customer's installments. See
  [Q1 — cancellation/refund](../payments/cancellation-and-payout.md) and
  [the two questions](../data-model/index.md).
- ~~BNPL اگر باشه خب پول پرستار رو کی میده؟~~
  **(Under BNPL, who pays the nurse?)** → Resolved. **Balinyaar** pays the nurse, on its own weekly
  schedule, from `gross − balinyaar_commission` — identical to a card booking; the BNPL commission is
  a platform expense, never the nurse's. See [Q2 — who pays the nurse & when](../payments/cancellation-and-payout.md).
