Because you are collecting money, it would be very embarrassing if you
lost your records of who bought what because of a crash.  This implies
you should store your information in a database, one with crash
protection. I suggest Postgre.

If this is just a single-user desktop app, it will be a lot simpler
and secure than if you make it a multi-user or web app.

Performance is not a concern. The total amount of data is trivial.
