An iOS extension delivered in 3 months to reintegrate the CPay card into the heart of the online shopping journey
background
In a consumer credit market transformed by the rise of BNPL solutions, BNP Paribas Personal Finance wanted to bring the use of the CPay card closer to the key moment: The intention to buy.
Until now, the map was mainly activated via routes post-purchase or marketing campaigns that are disconnected from e-commerce.
Cetelem therefore wanted to create a proactive experience, capable of:
- be inserted directly into partner merchant sites,
- dynamically display the available balance and benefits,
- simplify the process of buying with CPay.
To achieve this ambitious goal, the brand called on Theodo.
Challenges
- Develop an iOS extension in a highly secure environment (BNPP).
- Design an experience fluid and proactive, without manual user action.
- Manage sensitive data in real time revolving credit from the mobile app.
- Allow a autonomous management of the merchant whitelist, via Firebase.
- Create a Clear UX, despite a complex technical background (extension, modal, payment, security).
These constraints made fast and reliable delivery particularly difficult without an ultra-structured approach.
