Skipcash (prototype, MVP and millions in funding)

Skipcash – a mobile payment app designed and developed by PLATFORM, won the startups of the year, received millions in funding, and became a partner of Microsoft. Wow, what an achievement! Congrats!

As with all projects, we started with a discovery phase that helped to define the business strategy, product features and roadmap. We followed that with a full experience and design phase, elevated by the branding we created and built the final product. As part of our discovery phase, we built a touchable prototype as a proof of concept – which they could not only hold in the palm of their hand, but won them funding and enabled them to continue to build their vision of the real product.

Using React Native, we’ve built them a full-featured, cross-platform application based on the strategic roadmap created by both teams. We’ve implemented a methodology that would enable scalability and modularity for the SkipCash team to take over and continue to build upon.

Today, Skipcash is an award-winning mobile payment app that offers a convenient and enjoyable experience throughout the payments journey for both consumers and merchants. The app enables consumers to make digital payments using a proprietary QR code thereby reducing the need for cash, physical cards, and Point-Of-Sale (POS) devices. SkipCash also allows consumers to link their card securely to use it in all their transactions, monitor their spending via visual spending reports, organize their payments receipts, enable virtual account for kids & family members, and access to merchants’ vouchers & coupons.
