Here’s a detailed workflow of what happens after Step 1, including what is shown on the screen:

Detailed Workflow

Step 1: Country and Email Input

  1. User Inputs Country and Email:
    • User selects their country from a dropdown and enters their email address.
    • User clicks “Next.”

html

<form id="country-email-form">
  <h2>Welcome to the Futuverse™ Early Access!</h2>
  <label for="country">Select Your Country:</label>
  <select id="country" name="country" required>
    <option value="" disabled selected>Select your country</option>
    <!-- Eligible countries here -->
    <option value="USA">United States</option>
    <option value="Canada">Canada</option>
    <!-- More eligible countries -->
  </select>
  <label for="email">Enter Your Email:</label>
  <input type="email" id="email" name="email" placeholder="Enter your email address" required>
  <button type="submit">Next</button>
</form>

Step 2: Country Verification and Token Sending

  1. Country Verification and Token Sending:
    • The system verifies the selected country.
    • If the country is not allowed, display a message informing the user that the game is not available in their country.
    • If the country is allowed, send a trial version token to the user’s email and display a message indicating that the token has been sent.

Step 3: Post-Submission Feedback

  1. Feedback and Next Steps:
    • If the country is allowed, show a message on the screen confirming that the token has been sent to their email and provide a “Next” button to proceed to the download screen.
    • If the country is not allowed, show a message explaining that the game is not available in their country and do not proceed further.

javascript

document.getElementById('country-email-form').addEventListener('submit', function(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  const country = document.getElementById('country').value;
  const email = document.getElementById('email').value;

  if (isCountryAllowed(country)) {
    sendTokenToEmail(email);
    showPopup('A trial version token has been sent to your email.');
    // Automatically move to the next screen for download
    showDownloadScreen();
  } else {
    showPopup('Futuverse™ is currently not available in your country.');
  }
});

function isCountryAllowed(country) {
  const disallowedCountries = ['Nueva Zelanda', 'Australia', 'Filipinas', 'Japón', 'Reino Unido', 'Singapur', 'Suiza', 'Vietnam'];
  return !disallowedCountries.includes(country);
}

function sendTokenToEmail(email) {
  // Implement email sending logic
}

function showPopup(message) {
  alert(message); // Replace with a more elegant modal if needed
}

function showDownloadScreen() {
  // Hide the country-email form and show the download screen
  document.getElementById('country-email-form').style.display = 'none';
  document.getElementById('download-form').style.display = 'block';
}

Step 4: Download Screen

  1. Download Screen:
    • After verification and email confirmation, the user is taken to the download screen where they can download the software.
    • User enters the token they received via email to activate the game.

html

<form id="download-form" style="display:none;">
  <h3>Download Futuverse™ Early Access</h3>
  <p>For PC:</p>
  <a href="#" download>Download for PC</a>
  <p>For VR (Meta Quest 2/3):</p>
  <a href="#" download>Download for Meta Quest 2</a>
  <a href="#" download>Download for Meta Quest 3</a>
  <p>Play Online:</p>
  <a href="#">Access the Futuverse™ from any device with a high-speed internet connection. No downloads required!</a>

  <h3>Enter Activation Token:</h3>
  <input type="text" id="activation-token" name="activation-token" placeholder="Enter your token" required>
  <button type="button" onclick="validateToken()">Activate</button>
</form>

Screen Flow

Screen 1: Country and Email Input

  • User selects country and enters email.
  • User clicks “Next.”

Screen 2: Verification and Token Sending

  • If allowed country: Show a message “A trial version token has been sent to your email.”
  • If disallowed country: Show a message “Futuverse™ is currently not available in your country.”

Screen 3: Download Screen

  • After confirmation, show the download options.
  • User downloads the software.
  • User enters the token received via email to activate the game.

Explanation

  • Step-by-Step Process: This process guides the user through the necessary steps without overwhelming them with too many inputs at once.
  • Legal Compliance: By verifying the country first and sending the token only to allowed users, this workflow helps ensure compliance with legal restrictions.
  • User Convenience: The user gets immediate feedback and knows what to expect next, reducing frustration and confusion.
  • Data Collection: Requiring an email and validating it helps integrate user data with your CRM, providing valuable insights into your user base.

Do you envision the Step 3 as a pop up over the screen that shows the information of step 1? or a completely separate URL? if so, such URL must be very secured as otherwise anyone can go directly to this URL. thoughts?

ChatGPT

For a smoother user experience and better security, I suggest envisioning Step 3 as a pop-up overlay rather than a completely separate URL. Here’s why:

Why a Pop-Up Overlay?

  1. User Experience:
    • Seamless Transition: A pop-up overlay provides a seamless transition for the user without redirecting them to a new page. This keeps the user engaged and reduces the chances of them dropping off.
    • Immediate Feedback: Users get immediate feedback on their actions (e.g., verification status) without having to navigate away from the current page.
  2. Security:
    • Controlled Access: By keeping the download and token entry process on the same page, you minimize the risk of unauthorized access to the download page. A separate URL for downloads could potentially be shared or accessed directly without proper verification.
    • Session Integrity: A pop-up overlay ensures that the user’s session is maintained, and the flow of actions is controlled, making it harder for someone to bypass steps.

Implementation Details

Step 1: Country and Email Input (Main Screen)

  • User enters their country and email, then clicks “Next.”

html

<form id="country-email-form">
  <h2>Welcome to the Futuverse™ Early Access!</h2>
  <label for="country">Select Your Country:</label>
  <select id="country" name="country" required>
    <option value="" disabled selected>Select your country</option>
    <!-- Eligible countries here -->
    <option value="USA">United States</option>
    <option value="Canada">Canada</option>
    <!-- More eligible countries -->
  </select>
  <label for="email">Enter Your Email:</label>
  <input type="email" id="email" name="email" placeholder="Enter your email address" required>
  <button type="submit">Next</button>
</form>

Step 2: Country Verification and Token Sending

  • Verification logic, sending token, and showing pop-up based on the country.

javascript

document.getElementById('country-email-form').addEventListener('submit', function(event) {
  event.preventDefault();
  const country = document.getElementById('country').value;
  const email = document.getElementById('email').value;

  if (isCountryAllowed(country)) {
    sendTokenToEmail(email);
    showPopup('A trial version token has been sent to your email.', true);
  } else {
    showPopup('Futuverse™ is currently not available in your country.', false);
  }
});

function isCountryAllowed(country) {
  const disallowedCountries = ['Nueva Zelanda', 'Australia', 'Filipinas', 'Japón', 'Reino Unido', 'Singapur', 'Suiza', 'Vietnam'];
  return !disallowedCountries.includes(country);
}

function sendTokenToEmail(email) {
  // Implement email sending logic
}

function showPopup(message, isAllowed) {
  const popup = document.getElementById('popup');
  popup.innerText = message;
  popup.style.display = 'block';
  if (isAllowed) {
    document.getElementById('download-link').style.display = 'block';
  } else {
    document.getElementById('download-link').style.display = 'none';
  }
}

Step 3: Download and Token Entry (Pop-Up Overlay)

html

<div id="popup" style="display:none;">
  <div id="popup-content">
    <p id="popup-message"></p>
    <div id="download-link" style="display:none;">
      <h3>Download Futuverse™ Early Access</h3>
      <p>For PC:</p>
      <a href="#" download>Download for PC</a>
      <p>For VR (Meta Quest 2/3):</p>
      <a href="#" download>Download for Meta Quest 2</a>
      <a href="#" download>Download for Meta Quest 3</a>
      <p>Play Online:</p>
      <a href="#">Access the Futuverse™ from any device with a high-speed internet connection. No downloads required!</a>
      <h3>Enter Activation Token:</h3>
      <input type="text" id="activation-token" name="activation-token" placeholder="Enter your token" required>
      <button type="button" onclick="validateToken()">Activate</button>
    </div>
    <button onclick="closePopup()">Close</button>
  </div>
</div>


CSS for Popup

css

#popup {
  position: fixed;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

#popup-content {
  background: white;
  padding: 20px;
  border-radius: 5px;
  text-align: center;
}

JavaScript to Handle Popup

javascript

function closePopup() {
  document.getElementById('popup').style.display = 'none';
}

function validateToken() {
  const token = document.getElementById('activation-token').value;
  // Implement token validation logic
}


Summary of Steps:

  1. Country and Email Input:
    • User inputs country and email.
    • Clicks “Next.”
  2. Verification:
    • If the country is not allowed, show a message and do not proceed.
    • If the country is allowed, send a token to the user’s email and display a pop-up confirming the action.
  3. Download and Activation (Pop-Up Overlay):
    • The pop-up shows download links and an input field for the activation token.
    • User downloads the software and uses the token to activate it.

This workflow ensures a secure, user-friendly process while maintaining legal compliance and collecting necessary user data.


Recommended Approach:

  1. Generate Unique, Time-Limited Download Links: Each time a user successfully passes the country and email verification, generate a unique download link that expires after a certain period (e.g., 24 hours). This link can be tied to the user’s email address and/or token.
  2. Tie Download Link to Token: Require the token to be entered after downloading the software to activate it. This way, even if the download link is shared, only users with a valid token can use the software.

Detailed Workflow:

  1. Country and Email Input (Main Screen):
    • User inputs country and email.
    • Clicks “Next.”
  2. Verification:
    • If the country is not allowed, show a message and do not proceed.
    • If the country is allowed, generate a unique, time-limited download link and send a token to the user’s email.
    • Display a pop-up confirming the action and showing the download link.
  3. Download and Activation (Pop-Up Overlay):
    • The pop-up shows the unique download link and an input field for the activation token.
    • User downloads the software.
  4. Activation (Pop-Up Overlay):
    • The user enters the activation token in the same pop-up to unlock full features.
    • If the token is valid, the software is activated.
    • If the token is invalid, display an error message and prompt the user to try again.

  event.preventDefault();
  const country = document.getElementById('country').value;
  const email = document.getElementById('email').value;

  if (isCountryAllowed(country)) {
    const downloadLink = generateUniqueDownloadLink(email);
    sendTokenAndLinkToEmail(email, downloadLink);
    showPopup('A trial version token has been sent to your email along with the download link.', true, downloadLink);
  } else {
    showPopup('Futuverse™ is currently not available in your country.', false);
  }
});

function isCountryAllowed(country) {
  const disallowedCountries = ['Nueva Zelanda', 'Australia', 'Filipinas', 'Japón', 'Reino Unido', 'Singapur', 'Suiza', 'Vietnam'];
  return !disallowedCountries.includes(country);
}

function generateUniqueDownloadLink(email) {
  // Implement logic to generate a unique, time-limited download link tied to the user's email
  return "<https://example.com/download?token=>" + btoa(email + ":" + new Date().getTime());
}

function sendTokenAndLinkToEmail(email, downloadLink) {
  // Implement email sending logic
}

function showPopup(message, isAllowed, downloadLink = "") {
  const popup = document.getElementById('popup');
  popup.innerText = message;
  popup.style.display = 'block';
  if (isAllowed) {
    document.getElementById('download-link').style.display = 'block';
    document.getElementById('download-link').href = downloadLink;

    alert('Token validated! Full features unlocked.');
  } else {
    document.getElementById('token-error').style.display = 'block';
  }
}

function isValidToken(token) {
  // Implement token validation logic
  // For example, check token against a database of issued tokens
  return true; // Replace with actual validation
}


Summary of Steps:

  1. Country and Email Input (Main Screen):
    • User inputs country and email.
    • Clicks “Next.”
  2. Verification:
    • If the country is not allowed, show a message and do not proceed.
    • If the country is allowed, generate a unique, time-limited download link and send a token to the user’s email.
    • Display a pop-up confirming the action and showing the download link.
  3. Download and Activation (Pop-Up Overlay):
    • The pop-up shows the unique download link and an input field for the activation token.
    • User downloads the software.
  4. Activation (Pop-Up Overlay):
    • The user enters the activation token in the same pop-up to unlock full features.
    • If the token is valid, the software is activated.
    • If the token is invalid, display an error message and prompt the user to try again.

This approach ensures the download link is secure and not easily shareable, while maintaining a user-friendly experience.
