Project Summary

Zignuts Technolab developed a coupon-marketing web platform that allowed businesses to create online coupons redeemable in physical locations. The vendor built a frontend widget and a PHP/MySQL backend with Facebook and Twitter integrations, and they handled milestone-based development and QA. The platform ran fast with minimal lag, and end users and client customers were satisfied despite the startup later going out of business.

Key Challenges

Develop online-based coupon marketing software for hotels and restaurants
Integrate coupons into client websites via JavaScript widgets
Enable in-store redemption and manage coupon timeframes

Project Deliverables

Frontend JavaScript widget
Backend system (PHP/MySQL) for coupon management
Social media integrations (Facebook and Twitter)
Quality assurance testing and a bug-fix phase

Project Solution

Zignuts Technolab developed the frontend JavaScript widget and the PHP/MySQL backend to manage coupon timeframes and redemption.

Project Outcome

Platform ran fast with no lag and was well received by hotel and restaurant clients.
