PHASE 1. UNA INTEGRATION
RNDpoint’s work in the Credentially project first involved UNA Professional Tests integration via API.
The UNA service allows system administrators to assign professional assessments to applicants for skills testing. Candidates can register on the UNA platform, view all assigned tests on-site, view their results, and undertake the assigned assessments from their UNA profiles.
Administrators also derive many benefits from UNA integration, as they can view the candidates’ assessment results and profiles and automate the onboarding process for applicants on the platform.
Integration with the UNA service took one month (June-July 2022).
PHASE 2. SSO, SIGN-UP, AND LOG IN
The RNDpoint improved the user authorization and registration system by adding the option for third-party SAML 2.0 providers for sign-up/log-in (e.g., AD, OKTA, Microsoft, Google, etc.).
We were required to preserve the existing passless flow of authorization and create a separate configuration for every client organization. An additional task was to make co-branding of the authorization page.
We partnered with the client company’s technical director to introduce improvements to the existing authorization flow and keep the process compliant with business and architecture requirements.
In the original flow, users could only sign up or log in to the platform using a magic link sent to their email. Our new solution presupposed a separate authorization server and SAML SSO integration for authorization via SAML SSO provider links.
Every registered healthcare organization at the Credentially system has an opportunity to add its SAML 2.0 SSO providers, and this option is configurable on the organizational level.
PHASE 3. TWO-FACTOR AUTHENTICATION
Initially, Credentially used only one authentication parameter – the user’s email. The RNDpoint team added the second phone number parameter to the authentication process.
We’ve developed a technical flow of sending SMS messages with a confirmation code via Twilio for further authorization on the Credentially platform. System users can configure this parameter on the organizational level.
Phases 2 and 3 took us three months to complete (August-October 2022).
Our team developed a product containing the following features:
An application with an in-built set of free and premium tools for the creation of trading strategies.
Virtual money trading tool (demo account) for testing strategies through operating with virtual funds.
Subscription-based user model with basic and advanced features for novices and experienced traders.
Strategy customization feature enabling users to create unique strategies and sets of filters.
The product was launched in October 2021. Though the project implementation is still in process of final fine-tuning and full-scale app development, it has already engaged 1,000+ users who are managing millions of dollars on a daily basis.
Currently, the app is fully integrated with many popular trading brokers, such as Interactive Brokers, Robinhood, Charles Schwab, and covers all the US stocks.
RNDpoint team campaigns the digital marketing promotion of the product in various online channels.
Our technical team made tangible improvements to the software development process quality of the project. We engaged our most experienced, skillful, and disciplined specialists to deliver the best code quality.
With better planning, timely milestone delivery, and code improvement, the final app version can ensure a secure and frictionless financial experience for individuals and businesses who choose the digital wallet for non-cash payments.
The client Bank wished to develop its business and attract new clients through new possibilities. One of the transformation ideas was the creation of the investment platform Brokerage.
Our customer’s business goals:
Brokerage was supposed to serve as an additional sales channel for banking services.
The application was to help increase the number of bank customers.
The Bank turned to RNDpoint to create a new brokerage platform. The Bank was adapting new technological stacks (like Kubernetes cluster, microservice architecture, CI/CD processes instead of monolith applications, ESB) so our engineers have the possibility to build a new platform from scratch and develop all the functionality of the application:
opening new brokerage accounts for users (onboarding);
completing deals with stocks on the stock exchange (trading operations);
provide informational services and analytics;
perform currency exchange deals;
depositing and withdrawing money to and from the client’s brokerage account.
The RNDpoint team was also involved in many related development tasks during the project’s progression. The main areas of our responsibility covered:
Architecture design and development
Business analysis
Functional testing
Devops tasks
The overall task involved developing an investing platform with simple trading tools. Since the app’s target audience was beginner investors, the main priority in the development was a user-friendly and intuitive interface, which would allow users to complete deals on the stock exchange in a couple of clicks.
The RNDpoint team worked on the BNPL solution’s technical specifications, UI/UX design, full-stack development of the ecosystem, and further testing. We also completed much work on the database integration and restructuring for its smooth linkage to the client’s IT infrastructure.
RNDpoint coders also completed the accounting department’s operational optimization. We uncovered a persistent glitch in the invoicing system, which forced accountants to revise them manually. Our improvements ensured quick, automatic invoice generation without errors.
The second iteration of our project work involved a business portal’s launch for commercial users wishing to become part of the Bank’s BNPL program.
The RNDpoint staff developed a new, functional administrative database for the Bank to track all financial and legal documentation with BNPL partners. We also handled complex database integration and reengineering tasks to ensure the portal’s efficient operations.
The RNDpoint team developed the P2P Money Transfer App from scratch.
The initial stage of our project work involved deadline and functionality negotiations. After that, the development work started. We worked extensively on the UI/UX design to deliver a top-tier product for the Bank. The team used the Apple Pay integration and also linked the core banking system with the bank’s gateways to allow transaction processing.
As the app was developed for iOS and Android platforms, the Bank’s major requirement was the speed of user transactions.
The initial arrangement with the Bank presupposed that RNDpoint would be responsible for end-to-end software development and the in-house team’s training on the app’s operation and maintenance. The Bank planned to support the app and continue its development and updates in-house.
