Introduction
Urrly aimed to create a marketplace platform that would make it easy for local service providers to connect with customers. The platform needed to handle everything from service discovery to booking and payment processing.
The Challenge
The main challenge was creating a platform that would be intuitive for both service providers and customers while handling complex features like real-time availability, secure payments, and review systems.
Our Solution
We developed a full-featured marketplace platform with real-time booking, secure payment processing, and a robust review system. The platform includes features like instant messaging, service provider profiles, and automated scheduling.
Technical Implementation
The platform was built using Next.js and TypeScript, with a robust backend powered by Node.js and MongoDB. We integrated Stripe Connect for marketplace payments, Socket.io for real-time messaging, and implemented a sophisticated search algorithm with Elasticsearch.
Results
Since launch, the platform has achieved a 52% user retention rate, 83% increase in transaction volume, and a 127% increase in service provider signups. The platform now processes over 1,000 bookings daily with a 98% satisfaction rate.
