Driving innovation through ingenious features

01
Live auction and bidding.
Thousands of sneakerheads can join auctions, buy and make bids to win the limited sneakers effortlessly. The application works through auctions with a countdown timer where people place bids one at a time. A person who bids last when the timer hits zero becomes the winner.
02
In-app giveaways.
Each new user receives reward points once they register. The reward points enable users to participate in sneaker giveaways and win a free pair of shoes.
03
Flip feature.
This functionality allows auction winners to instantly receive a market value payout for their win and a chance to earn even more by reposting their shoes.
04
Multiple payment gateway integrations.
The marketplace app supports numerous payment methods such as PayPal, ApplePay, GooglePay, and credit cards. The payment gateway integration allowed customers to make fast financial transactions in a scalable, flexible, and secure environment.
05
Reward shop.
Each user can claim a reward in the loyalty shop depending on the number of bids spent during an auction. They can use reward points in the app shop to buy merchandise or accessories or take part in giveaways. Thus, the reward system offered a richer experience and better user retention by rewarding users for their participation.
06
Referral program.
As an additional bonus, when users share the application with friends, they give and receive free bids. By using a unique referral code, customers can refer as many new players as they want.
