Freegoods
A Singapore-based charity and donation app: give away the things you no longer use, request what you need, and arrange the hand-over, on iOS and Android.
Overview
Free Goods is a Singapore-based donation company. The prime goal of the company is to help people in need and save planet Earth.
Free Goods Pte. Ltd. approached Sphinx Solutions in 2016 to build charity iOS and Android applications.
They wanted a mobile application that would help them achieve their goals by motivating people to give away their unused items to those in need. That way they could help reduce the burden of production and also help people.
They were looking for a mobile application development company that could make the whole process hassle-free. With more than a decade of experience, Sphinx Solutions has helped several brands build their web and mobile applications.
Freegoods primarily wanted to create a brand-new way for like-minded people to stay connected and support charities.
The proposed solution lets users request and list their own items, and arrange meet-ups at the most convenient locations.
Creating a cost-efficient mobile application that scales automatically with a growing number of visitors was the primary challenge Sphinx Solutions faced.
Our team ran a thorough brainstorming session with the project managers and the architect to find a way to optimise the overall development and maintenance cost. Along with this, we mapped end-to-end customer journeys and analysed the usability of the application.

Tech stack
What people usually ask about Freegoods and about building something like it.
The overall cost of a crowdfunding app usually ranges from $60,000 to $250,000. There is no fixed rate, as it depends on how complex the app is, its features, third-party integrations, and the developer’s location and hourly rates.
Start with ideation and project planning, then deep market research and an analysis of the business models. Plan the design and prototype it, develop the front end and back end, test to fix bugs, and finally launch and maintain the app.
