Project challenges

  • Website architecture presented challenges, containing several uneven categories (more items for dogs, fewer items for other animals). The team ensured an effective website structure.
    Fast performance under user load was crucial for a smooth user experience. The team put performance optimization as one of top priorities throughout the development.
  • The system used Sage Pay as its primary payment system due to its high level of data protection, customization, and lower commissions. Still, it had more strict integration requirements than competing systems.
