Based on the business analysis conducted and the client’s feedback, we decided to use Python, React Native, JavaScript, and Figma tools to best meet the technical and design requirements for the project. We utilized our experience in full-cycle software development to build a highly scalable system, which can be easily integrated with new features and third-party service APIs. The app has minimum load time and features seamless navigation. We supercharged the system with impenetrable security to protect the integrity of data stored. Last but not least, we made sure the app is compatible with all the devices listed in the requirements.

Solutions

Our team followed the client’s requirements and suggested a few unique solutions. Key amongst them was the creation of a new database structure for all future clients. 

While it wasn’t possible to migrate all the data from the legacy database, our team set up a Master-Slave database architecture. This allowed the legacy database to perform at the significantly higher speed of the new database.

Solutions

The website is based on Drupal 6 and Ubercart. The Sphinx is the pages’ search engine that ensures a massive searching speed-up. It is also capable of decreasing the pressure caused on servers. The newly developed interface grants users with such features:

• The user is capable of creating and designing his store by his bidding in order for the store to match all the goals as well as marketing strategies;
• After the store is created the user is able to place his goods there (publishing, editing and marking them ‘out of stock’). The user can also manage his orders and returns;
• The new platform supports some additional metrics such as invoices;
• The site’s manager is now capable of controlling and operating the goods in the store based on their status. He may keep track of sales/returns of particular shops;
• Shops and goods are automatically indexed by the site’s search system after being published;
• An RSS-feed of registered internet blogs and posts and news that are placed in the site’s blog section has been created to serve marketing purposes.

Challenge

We had to arrange a system in a way that would let all the betters receive notifications on new tips simultaneously. Since the odds correlate directly with bet flows, the sooner a better receives a tip, the higher his chances to place the desired bet. Another crucial aspect of an effective betting platform is real-time statistics and automatic updates of all the necessary information. And lastly, since betting is closely connected to user payment information, we had to protect mobile devices from security breaches and connections from other devices using the same credentials..

Solution

Our team is responsible for the UI/UX design, development, and testing of the solution’s website as well as native iOS and Android applications. We used the Laravel PHP framework for the website and REST API for integration with the most common sports betting APIs (in this case, LSPORT). 

The service’s database is used for the website and applications, which query the database on the front-end (website, apps) and the back-end (admin panel). The website’s admin panel has a built-in chat service, a dashboard of matches with a gambling corner, as well as an intuitive interface allowing tipsters to submit their tips. 

The option to receive email links with tips was implemented with Google CAPTCHA ― a function that was only available upon request within the admin panel. 

Finally, A PUSH notification service (FireBase) was integrated and thoroughly tested to ensure that all betters are able to receive real-time notifications as soon as their preferred tipsters submit their tips.
