Project Summary

STX Next developed a nonprofit donation platform (a hosted button/lightbox) for a fintech client, using Python, React, and AWS. They ran a short discovery phase, implemented the solution (roughly seven months to initial deployment), and continue to add features while providing DevOps, QA, and architecture support. The client reports a stable, high-quality product that handled its first peak donation season and met traffic expectations.

Key Challenges

Needed an affordable way to develop a first-of-its-kind donation product from inception
Required clear requirements, architecture, and implementation from concept to launch
Needed reliable integration with multiple third parties

Project Deliverables

Hosted donation button integration (lightbox)
Backend platform developed in Python
React frontend
AWS-hosted production, staging, and development environments
DevOps pipelines and release support

Project Solution

STX Next led a short 2–3 week discovery to identify requirements and architecture, then implemented the platform with a separate development team. They built a hosted donation button (lightbox) integrated into nonprofit websites, using a Python backend, React frontend, and AWS hosting. STX Next also provided DevOps, QA, and architectural support, assisting with releases and environment management, and continues to add new features.

Project Outcome

High-quality, stable product that met traffic expectations
