Challenges

SwissBorg’s ambitious plan to execute a large-scale community fundraise was set against the backdrop of a challenging crypto bear market, raising the stakes significantly. The core challenge was twofold: technological and experiential. They required a bespoke platform robust enough to handle thousands of simultaneous investments without fail, and secure enough to earn the trust of their community with their capital. This platform also needed to integrate flawlessly with the existing SwissBorg mobile app to provide a frictionless, unified user experience, preventing user drop-off and ensuring maximum participation. The success of their entire product roadmap and growth strategy hinged on overcoming these hurdles to mobilize their community effectively.

Solutions

Codetribe stepped in as a strategic engineering partner to deliver a custom, high-performance Launchpad web application. We developed a robust and scalable solution capable of managing high-traffic loads, ensuring stability throughout the fundraising campaign. A secure authentication system was built to integrate flawlessly with the main SwissBorg app, allowing users to invest with their existing credentials and reinforcing trust. To maximize participation, the platform was designed to drive engagement, featuring a referral program and real-time progress tracking that fostered a sense of community and urgency, empowering thousands of users to invest with confidence.
