NFT Platform Development

We build NFT platforms end-to-end: smart contracts, minting experiences, metadata pipelines, and marketplace features. Clean UX, safe on-chain flows, and scalable infrastructure from testnet to mainnet. NFT ecosystems with contract + frontend alignment and a clean handoff package (APAC overlap (AEST/AEDT-friendly)).

What We Do

Our approach

NFT smart contracts (ERC721, ERC1155, ERC721A where needed)

Minting flows: allowlist, public sale, reveal, limits, anti-bot controls

Marketplace features: listings, offers, auctions, collections, activity feed

Metadata pipeline: IPFS/Arweave, pinning strategy, reveal & updates

Royalties with EIP-2981 + payout configuration (where supported)

Wallet integration (MetaMask, WalletConnect) + signature flows

Creator/admin dashboard: supply, phases, allowlists, analytics

Indexing + caching for fast UX (events, ownership, sales history)

Process

How we work

1

Discovery

We define your NFT utility, chain choice, mint phases, marketplace scope, and operational constraints. Then we outline the contract architecture, metadata strategy, and indexing approach.

2

Design

We design a clean minting UI and marketplace flows with wallet-first UX. We also plan edge cases (sold out, failures, retries), and keep everything consistent with your brand.

3

Build

We build contracts + frontend + backend/indexing in parallel. You’ll get weekly demos, a staging environment, and clear checklists for mint phases, allowlists, and admin ops.

4

QA

Testnet runs, mint simulations, role/permission review, and failure-mode testing (reverts, race conditions, sold-out scenarios). We also run basic static analysis and prepare for external audits if needed.

5

Launch

Mainnet deployment, contract verification, monitoring, and launch-day support. We provide runbooks for allowlist updates, phase switches, reveal, and incident response.

Marketplace Product

Build a focused marketplace with listings, offers, auctions, and strong browsing/search UX backed by indexing and caching.

Utility NFTs

Membership, ticketing, gated content, or perks—NFTs integrated with your app or website using signatures and access checks.

Upgrade / Migration

Modernize an existing drop, add missing admin controls, improve metadata/reveal, or build a new frontend around an existing contract.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

ERC721 is best for unique 1/1 items and typical collections. ERC1155 works well for semi-fungible items like tickets, memberships, or game assets. ERC721A can reduce mint costs for batch-heavy drops. We’ll recommend the best fit based on your mint plan and utility.

We typically use IPFS for metadata and assets, and Arweave when permanent storage is a priority. We also define a pinning strategy so your metadata stays available and consistent over time.

We implement EIP-2981 for royalty signaling. Marketplace support varies, so we design your drop assuming royalties may not be enforced everywhere and we can add optional payout flows if needed.

Yes. We implement allowlists (Merkle trees), per-wallet limits, phased sales, and clear UX for failures and retries. For high-risk launches, we can also add queueing and rate-limiting at the app layer.

We optimize the contract where it matters, choose gas-aware patterns, and can use L2s like Polygon/Arbitrum when the product supports it. We’ll also simulate launch scenarios to avoid surprises.

If you use standard ERC721/ERC1155 contracts with correct metadata, most marketplaces can index them. We follow compatibility best practices and verify metadata behavior on testnets before launch.

Delivery considerations for your region

Compliance & Data (AU)

For Australian teams, we keep privacy and data-handling explicit: access boundaries, safe logging, and clear retention policies.

We can support residency-sensitive designs (where feasible) and document data flows for stakeholder review.

  • Privacy Act-aware delivery posture (generic, no legal claims)
  • Documented data flows and access boundaries
  • Retention/deletion options where required
  • PII-safe logging and least-privilege defaults
  • NDA and DPA templates available on request

Timezone & Collaboration (APAC)

We support APAC collaboration with AEST/AEDT-friendly meeting windows and async progress updates.

We keep momentum with weekly milestones, crisp priorities, and predictable release planning.

  • APAC overlap with AEST/AEDT windows
  • Async-first updates and written decisions
  • Weekly milestone demos and scope control
  • Release planning with staged rollouts
  • Clear escalation path for blockers

Engagement & Procurement (AU)

We can structure engagements with clear scope, milestones, and invoicing that fits common procurement expectations.

If you need a lightweight vendor onboarding pack, we can provide delivery process notes and security posture summaries.

  • AUD-based engagements and invoicing options
  • Milestone-based billing for fixed-scope work
  • Time-and-materials for evolving scope
  • Procurement-friendly documentation on request
  • Optional paid discovery to de-risk delivery

Security & Quality (APAC)

With APAC teams, async clarity matters: written decisions, stable releases, and test coverage that prevents regressions.

We use performance budgets and release checklists so handoffs stay smooth across timezones.

  • CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + smoke tests
  • Performance budgets + bundle checks
  • Release checklist + rollback plan for production launches
  • Security checklist for auth and sensitive data flows
  • Observability hooks (logs + error tracking) ready for production
