Service Marketplace

Multi-Vendor Booking Platform with Real-Time Scheduling

A service marketplace needed a scalable booking system that connects customers with service providers, handles payments, and automates scheduling across multiple locations.

Why this mattered commercially

The platform created one digital flow for trip discovery, availability, booking, payments, provider administration, and customer accounts.

We worked hand in hand on this project with TregoTech, aligning product flow, booking logic, rollout priorities, and the customer experience closely throughout delivery.

The Challenge

Fragmented Booking

Service providers managed bookings through a mix of phone calls, spreadsheets, and social media messages. Double bookings were common and customer experience was inconsistent.

Our Solution

We built a multi-vendor booking marketplace that allows customers to browse services, check real-time availability, book appointments, and pay online - all in one platform.

Service providers get their own dashboard to manage availability, view bookings, track earnings, and communicate with customers. The system supports multiple locations and service categories.

Automated reminders, cancellation policies, and deposit collection gave providers more control over appointment administration and customer communication.
