From my limited exposure, it seems to me that most shopping cart/eCommerce platforms are specifically for products-based retailers. On several occasions now, I've been asked about ecommerce solutions for service providers. That is, it's basically just a single product with payment but no shipping, and highly configurable "product".

Any recommendations for a cost-efficient solution (high feature coverage) for such a web platform? Requirements:

  • .NET
  • No/suppressed product catalog
  • A service customization selection form
  • Payment (probably PayPal with accountless credit card processing)
  • Guest purchases (no site account required)
  • Email confirmation
  • Customer service -facing control panel

It's hard to search for such a product because I get "web service based ecommerce software" and so on clouding up the results.
