The Need
Following a rebrand that unified several acquired properties under one umbrella, a leading home services marketplace sought to modernize its digital ecosystem. The company needed a scalable, secure web and mobile platform capable of supporting rapid growth, offering new services, and enabling seamless user experiences for both consumers and professionals.
Key challenges included:
- Disjointed Digital Ecosystem: Years of acquisitions created fragmented user journeys across legacy platforms
- Low Payment Flexibility: Existing systems limited consumers’ ability to pay how and when they wanted
- Limited Promotional Tools: The business lacked robust capabilities to drive engagement with offers and incentives
- Manual Onboarding for Professionals: Service providers had no self-service capabilities and faced delays in getting paid
