The Challenge
What stood in the way.
Gift-card marketplace operations needed scalable access on both web and mobile, and a way to validate retailer balances automatically.
Balance validation
Each card's balance had to be confirmed with the retailer before it could be trusted.
Scale
Checks and marketplace activity had to keep up as volume grew across many retailers.
Our Solution
How we answered it.
We built and supported a web marketplace and native mobile apps for gift-card exchange. Alongside them, we built bots that check balances on retailer sites and store the results in a database. We also supplied UI/UX screens for the product.
