Approach

Rishabh Software’s team implemented mobile first approach for simplifying user on-boarding and developing engaging user experience. The overall approach was to deliver a secure, agile, and intuitive payment app for the Android POS terminals to process millions of NFC based payments. Android mobile application development was used backed by material design. Stripe payment integration was used to authorize real-time payments and Amazon EC2, NodeJS, and DynamoDB was used to develop the app.

The solution was built in a planned phase manner, starting with a “Proof of Concept” to test and validate market acceptance of the proposed concept to developing the final native NFC app. Our solution simplified the payment processing and transacted millions of digital payments with real-time payment authorization with Stripe. Multidisciplinary teams from Rishabh Software was deployed to architect, develop and deploy the NFC based payment app.
