Challenges 

Before the project commenced, there was an underlying concern about how to effectively communicate the company's complex subscription management services without overwhelming the user.

During the course of the project with the client, several challenges emerged that required adept handling. One of the primary challenges was aligning the marketplace pack, which was the foundation for the website rebuild, with the client's distinct brand identity. This involved not just aesthetic changes but also functional tweaks to ensure the platform was intuitive for users familiar with the company's services.

As the project progressed, an unforeseen challenge was the further customisation required to give the website a unique edge. While the marketplace website pack provided a solid foundation, their requirements went beyond the standard offerings. They needed specific modules, layouts, and designs that were tailored to their services. This meant that Struto had to delve deeper into customisation, ensuring that the end product was not a generic website but a platform that truly represented the brand.  

Solution 

To address the company's need for a revamped website that aligned with the brand and offered enhanced functionality, Struto devised a comprehensive plan of action. The initial phase involved a deep dive into understanding the client's unique requirements, their services, and the challenges they were facing with the existing platform.

The solution was built on a marketplace pack, which served as the foundational framework for the website. The development team focused on backend functionalities, ensuring seamless integration and user-friendly navigation. Meanwhile, the design team worked on aligning the platform's aesthetics with their brand identity, incorporating their specific colour schemes, fonts, and imagery.

This hybrid style of design approach allowed for consistency and efficiency by making use of marketplace templates, whilst ensuring that the customisation layer in design, development and aesthetics resonated with the individual brand identity of this fintech provider, to provide them with a unique and bespoke website.
