Opportunity

Accor Hotels needed a seamless mobile app to manage their ALL loyalty program. Integrating with BNP Paribas' backend system, the app had to deliver a smooth rewards experience for frequent travelers, including points accumulation and account management, across both Android and iOS platforms.

The app streamlines loyalty program management, offering real-time point tracking and account access.

Technical Challenges Overcome:

A key technical challenge in building the Accor Pay app was ensuring seamless integration with BNP Paribas' complex backend system. This system manages a vast amount of financial data and transactions.

Another challenge involved guaranteeing a consistent user experience across Android and iOS platforms. Here, the use of Kotlin and Swift, the native development languages for each platform respectively, came into play. Our expertise in these languages ensured the app felt intuitive and functioned flawlessly regardless of the user's device.

While our low-code development expertise could have leveraged solutions like Flutter or Flutterflow to achieve a cross-platform app, BNP Paribas specifically requested a custom-built solution using native languages. This approach gave them the granular control and flexibility they desired for this critical financial application. Our team was happy to accommodate their request and successfully delivered a high-performance native app that met their needs.
