About the client

Kurd Shopping is the leading buying and selling platform in the Middle East, allowing users to list and purchase used items such as cars, phones, property, and more. The platform handles over 150 million API calls per month, with 2 million active users buying and selling products. Kurd Shopping is available through mobile apps, a web portal, and a powerful CMS system that manages user data and ads.

The challenge

Kurd Shopping faced significant challenges due to the platform's high volume of users and traffic. Key issues included scalability, as the system needed to handle over 150 million API calls per month and accommodate 2 million monthly active users without becoming overwhelmed. Additionally, the development of stable and high-performance native iOS and Android apps was critical for serving millions of users effectively. The team also aimed to create a website with the same functionality and robustness as the mobile apps. A custom content management system (CMS) was necessary to manage ads, users, and content across the platform. Finally, ensuring a high availability architecture was essential, requiring a resilient platform that remained available 24/7 across multiple regions, utilizing Digital Ocean's cloud services to achieve this goal.

Dev Centre House Australia delivered a suite of solutions to meet Kurd Shopping's needs:

Native iOS App

Built an enterprise-grade iOS app using Swift, allowing users to buy and sell products seamlessly.

Native Android App

Developed a high-performance Android app using Kotlin, optimized for millions of transactions.

Website Development
