The Problem
Our client approached us looking to build an intuitive discount hotel booking app to rival big industry names. The app needed to be user-friendly, show up-to-date hotel information, and have a robust management portal for continued maintenance on hotel listings. Leveraging our knowledge of API integration and expert UI/UX design, we happily obliged.
Our Solution
We built our client a hotel booking mobile application with a web-based admin management portal. For this, we used a complex tech stack that enables users to book hotels directly through the app, ensuring a seamless user experience. Overall, our client’s app is just as powerful, if not more so, than the industry leaders with many unique features and attractive hotel discounts.
What We Did
Admin Portal
We created a web-based admin portal that allows our client to manage hotel listings and users, while also retaining a high level of personal data security. This feature ultimately enables our client to stay in the driving seat and keep the app well maintained.
Pricing API Integration
Grabbing live hotel prices and allowing users to book hotels through a third-party custom interface is a challenging technological feat. Yet, by leveraging our in-depth knowledge of mobile app development and API integration, we provided our client’s app with just that–live pricing and in-app hotel booking.
Intuitive User Interface
Because the user experience is an essential part of any mobile app, we spent extra time honing the app’s user interface to ensure a positive experience that feels familiar to mobile users. The result is a smooth and enjoyable overall experience that’s well poised to resonate with the app’s users.
NFT Subscriptions
In addition to being able to buy a subscription to the platform with U.S. dollars, our client also wanted an NFT-based subscription system. As a result, users can access a lifetime app membership by purchasing an NFT; then, if they decide they no longer wish to use the platform, they can simply sell their NFT to another user.

The team was very responsive and easy to work with. They are professional, talented, and experienced team. They were able to meet all our requirements.
Idea Maker is distinguished for their personalized collaboration and white glove services. The team is dependable and reliable, sticking to the project's plan, offering feedback, and pushing back on the right things.
The way they understand the requirements we present to them is fairly solid. Both in terms of bringing their own interpretation in nailing the requirements and their design sense. By the time we launched, I had gotten significantly more value from our collaboration than what we had discussed in the original specs.
This is a boutique development firm where the Founder is directly involved with the project and the primary contact. This is unlike many development firms where you are simply handed off to developers that are not stakeholders. This is an important distinction that results in much better project accountability.
I have never had a site like this built before. I felt that Idea Maker and Tom had built numerous sites like this, and they were pros.
Idea Maker's portfolio is what drew us in. Their design style was in alignment with what we were after. We had initial consultations with 3 companies that we had narrowed it down to. Once we had our initial meeting with Tom at Idea Maker we knew we had the right choice to make. Their communication style works well for us.
Their customer service is excellent — they’re incredibly accessible and available, which I appreciate. Furthermore, they have enough experience and bandwidth to fulfill all my needs. They’re one of the best vendors I’ve worked with.
