Freecoffee – Showcase site and store for mobile application with PrestaShop

The Project

This innovative project consists of a showcase website and an e-commerce platform developed with PrestaShop, designed to highlight the unique features of the Flutter Freecoffee mobile app. The central idea behind Freecoffee is to create a community of coffee lovers while providing added value to users. The mobile app allows users to complete daily surveys in exchange for free coffee or virtual coffee beans, which can be exchanged for discounts on products available on our client’s e-commerce site.

The Freecoffee mobile app, developed with Flutter, provides users with personalized daily surveys covering a variety of topics, from news to product preferences and user interests (music, sports, etc.). These surveys are designed to be short and engaging, so as not to take up too much of users’ time.

Our service
The Freecoffee website, developed with PrestaShop, serves as a showcase for the mobile app’s features and as an e-commerce platform for selling coffee-related products, thanks to its multi-store configuration.

The PrestaShop showcase site offers a detailed presentation of the mobile app, highlighting its features, benefits, and testimonials from satisfied users. Website visitors can easily download the Freecoffee mobile app from the iOS and Android app stores. The site offers a wide range of coffee-related products, from coffee beans to coffee machines and accessories.

Mobile app users can exchange their virtual coffee beans for discounts on products available on the website or directly in the in-app store. A special version with a highly optimized responsive mobile theme is available for integration within the mobile app. The site is designed to offer an optimized shopping experience, with features such as navigation memory to avoid losing the user when reconnecting to the site in the mobile app, the use of virtual coffee beans as a dynamic discount, and a secure and streamlined delivery and payment process.

The development of the Freecoffee website and mobile app presented several challenges, particularly in terms of integrating different platforms and rewards management. Customer data and their available coffee beans are provided in real time by Freecoffee APIs, through communications between the website and the Laravel administration platform. The PrestaShop web service, which allows third parties to connect to the PrestaShop database in a powerful and secure manner, was a real asset to the project.

Thanks to a fully custom theme created with Elementor, the development of modules specific to our client’s needs, and a well-thought-out architecture, we were able to overcome these challenges and deliver a powerful and reliable solution.

Freecoffee is a perfect example of how a well-designed mobile app and website can transform user engagement and boost sales, while reducing development costs by benefiting from the features of open source libraries and CMSs like PrestaShop.

We are proud to have contributed to this innovative project and look forward to seeing its future development.
