BUSINESS NEEDS

A major European car manufacturer used Ensoft to develop a B2B online payment system.

CHALLENGES

The company used another developer to build a custom end-to-end payment application that would allow businesses to sell to customers online. For customers, it would be the same as paying via a card terminal in a store — but on the Internet. The application needed to process payment details safely and securely.

The first version of the application lagged a lot and was difficult to use. The company decided to replace the developer team. They wanted a partner who could clear up the application’s architecture, make it more stable, and add new features. Someone in the company had already worked with Ensoft and knew we had experience with building online payment software. So, we were referred to as a potential partner. We showed our expertise through several related case studies, and the company was convinced we knew what to do and we could execute as much.

RESULTS OBTAINED

We completed the project on time, cleaning up the application’s architecture, adding new features and saving the client money by removing third-party tools. And the project overall had been instructive to us, as we improved our understanding of handling huge, highly-loaded payment systems.

Today, the product is developing rapidly. And we are preparing for the next stage: refactoring the widget using React Framework.
