FAQ

Common Questions

Our Manchester MVP offer starts at £1,075. The final figure depends on the user journey, integrations and platform requirements, so we confirm the scope and send a fixed quote before development begins.

We regularly work with Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay. The right setup depends on your business model, but we can also add Google Pay, Stripe-compatible PSPs or another local provider when the product needs it.

Yes. Most MVPs use React Native so both platforms can launch from one well-tested codebase. When a feature needs deeper device access or platform-specific behaviour, we use Swift or Kotlin where it makes sense.

A focused MVP can be ready in about four weeks. A broader iOS and Android release usually takes 8–14 weeks, depending on integrations, content, testing and the number of user roles involved.

we build for the fintech, media and digital companies of the North West. We use that local context to prioritise the first release, from Stripe, PayPal, Apple Pay checkout and onboarding to the operational workflows your Greater Manchester customers and staff actually use.

We plan data minimisation, consent, retention, deletion, encryption and processor controls around GDPR / UK ICO. The technical implementation is tested against the product requirements and your organisation's Data Processing Agreement before launch.

Yes. The Git repository, store accounts and technical documentation are kept in your company’s name, and the complete source code is handed over with the release.

Yes — we've built payment and budgeting apps that use Open Banking APIs with PSD2/SCA-compliant flows, alongside the Stripe and PayPal rails UK users already trust.
