Project Goals

Defining Success From Day One

Simplify Product Creation

Make designing and launching merchandise effortless for creators with zero technical or design background.

Seamless Buyer Experience

Give fans and customers a fast, frictionless path from discovering a creator's merch to checkout.

Built for Two Audiences

Balance a powerful creator-facing dashboard with a clean, conversion-ready storefront experience for buyers.

Scale Without Slowing Down

Support a high volume of creators, products, and global buyers without sacrificing speed or reliability.

Challenges

The Obstacles Standing in the Way

01

Two Audiences, One Platform

Creators need powerful tools; buyers need a simple storefront. Designing for both without compromising either was the core UX challenge.

02

Removing Technical Friction

Many creators have no design or eCommerce background, so campaign setup had to feel as easy as posting on social media.

03

Performance at Global Scale

With creators and buyers spread across regions and integrated social platforms, the experience had to stay fast and consistent everywhere.
