Identifying Challenges in Constructing a User-Friendly Mobile Commerce Solution

The client requires an intuitive and secure mobile shopping experience that allows users to self-assess their needs, select appropriate products, and purchase seamlessly. Existing solutions lack smooth integration with external service providers, secure payment handling, and effective product management, leading to operational inefficiencies and decreased customer satisfaction.

  • Deploy the platform on scalable cloud infrastructure with optimized data management.
  • Achieve high user engagement metrics, targeting over 50,000 downloads in the initial phase.
  • Support multiple languages to cater to diverse user demographics.
