Redbus-Style Bus Ticketing Website

I’m planning to launch an online platform focused exclusively on booking bus tickets, mirroring the user experience and reliability people associate with Redbus. The core of the site will be a smooth, three-step journey: search, seat selection, and payment—finished off with an automatic confirmation via SMS and email.

Key features I need from day one
• Real-time seat selection that updates instantly as passengers reserve their spots
• Multiple payment options (cards, UPI, net-banking, wallets, etc.) processed through a secure gateway
• Automatic booking confirmation pushed to both SMS and email, with a unique PNR for easy lookup
• A straightforward module to list and manage business travel packages, allowing companies to pre-pay or set monthly billing

Nice-to-have (but not required immediately): a framework that lets us bolt on holiday or fully-customizable packages in the future without rewriting the core booking flow.

I’ll supply brand assets and a basic wireframe; you handle UI/UX polish, responsive frontend, and an admin dashboard where I can add operators, routes, fares, and view sales reports. Tech stack is flexible—React, Vue, or traditional server-rendered pages are all fine—as long as real-time seat maps stay lightning fast and the codebase is clear enough for my in-house dev to maintain later.

Deliver the full source code, database schema, and a brief deployment guide so we can move it straight onto our cloud instance. I’m ready to get started as soon as I find the right developer.
