Requirements

Our solution

Ability to manage the content and media easily for the multilingual customer facing site.

We used the open-source TinaCMS editing toolkit, to incorporate real-time editing in the customer facing site. Authorized editors can easily edit their content and media, and view their changes alongside in real-time. The customer facing site supports four languages, Italin, English, German and French. Editors choose to manage lanugage specific content by choosing from a Language bar at the top of the page.

Fast loading of dynamically authored content

We leveraged the power of NextJS Static Server Side Generation, and Automatic Static Optimization, to automatically publish and rebuild the static site on the fly, whenever content gets edited. The result is that we were able to manage dynamic content in a static server generated site - At blazing fast speed!

Developing a fast backoffice to manage all currency exchange orders

We used the open source React Admin toolkit to build a fast, multilingual backoffice dashboard and admin panel. Backend communication with the NestJS server is over Apollo GraphQL. The backoffice allows the customer to effectively manage, process and notify customer orders in its various stages. Their dynamic dashboard gives allows them to monitor their business, cashflow and order flow.

Reduction in expensive foreign exchange rate provider fees

Foreign Exchange markets operate 24x7 and FX rates change by the second. We developed an intelligent caching feature which avoided expensive fetching of FX rates from the external FX rate provider gateway thus reducing the fees paid by customer to their vendor for accessing on-demand FX rates, and also improving application performance by 20%.

Results:

Since inception, the customer is able to meet compliance and regulatory requirements, operate and scale their online business to support thousands of orders using infrastructure and software developed and maintained by us.
