Dynamic Homepage

The homepage of Photo Collage Builder is designed for flexibility and engagement. It’s composed of various widgets, each with a specific role:

displaying main banners
highlighting customer reviews
featuring product combinations

The standout feature is a backend configurator. This tool allows an admin to effortlessly modify the placement, content, and settings of these widgets, ensuring the homepage remains adaptable and aligned with evolving customer interests.

Product Builder

We developed a unique approach for Photo Collage Builder. Instead of a standard product catalog, we created a one-stop frame builder. Clients select size, style, and color, all in a seamless, React JS-based process.

Customers can upload an image, see it in their chosen frame, and fine-tune it with crops and filters.

This user-friendly interface enhances customer experience, while backend efficiency ensures high-quality production.

Custom Checkout

The standard checkout process just wasn’t cutting it for Photo Collage Builder. Thus, our team designed a whole new checkout experience. It’s all about making things easier and faster for the customer. Fewer clicks, less hassle.

We focused especially on mobile users by introducing drawer-like tabs for address and payment info that pop up only when needed.

Plus, it’s all built on React JS. This means a smooth experience for the user, top-notch security, and fast backend communication.

‘Giving Back’ Program

Photo Collage Builder isn’t just about selling frames; they’re committed to making a difference, too. A part of every purchase goes to their charity program, a heartfelt initiative by the founders.

Thus, our team set up an automatic system that calculates and reports these donations. This keeps everything transparent, letting both the business and its customers know exactly how much it is helping others. It’s combining great customer experience with a meaningful impact.
