NFT Platform Development

End-to-end NFT marketplace builds: contracts, minting UX, listings/offers/auctions, indexing, and an admin dashboard you can operate. If you’re looking for an NFT wallet development company, we typically focus on wallet integrations (MetaMask, WalletConnect) rather than building standalone wallets from scratch.

What We Do

Our approach

NFT token development services (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 integrations (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.

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 (US)

For US teams, we build with auditability in mind: clear access boundaries, least-privilege roles, and reviewable operational controls.

We can align delivery with SOC 2 / ISO-friendly practices (without claiming certification): evidence-ready logs, secure-by-default config, and clear ownership.

  • SOC 2 / ISO-friendly implementation patterns (no certification claims)
  • Least-privilege access and permission boundaries
  • Security review checklists for auth, payments, and data flows
  • PII-safe logging + incident response playbooks (on request)
  • Retention and deletion flows where required
  • NDA + vendor onboarding docs on request

Timezone & Collaboration (Americas)

We support teams across the Americas with meeting windows that work for EST/CST/MST/PST.

We keep delivery predictable with weekly milestones, concise async updates, and written decisions to reduce calendar load.

  • Americas overlap with EST/PST-friendly windows
  • Async-first updates with written decisions
  • Weekly milestone demos + change control
  • Fast turnaround on blockers and clarifications
  • Clear owner per workstream and escalation path

Engagement & Procurement (US)

US-friendly engagement structure: clear SOWs, milestone billing, and invoice cadence that fits typical procurement workflows.

If you need vendor onboarding artefacts, we can provide security posture summaries and delivery process documentation.

  • USD invoicing and milestone-based payment schedules
  • SOW + scope lock options for fixed-scope work
  • Time-and-materials for evolving requirements
  • Procurement-ready documentation on request
  • Optional paid discovery to de-risk delivery

Security & Quality (US)

We ship with a security-first checklist and performance budgets—so releases stay stable under real traffic.

Expect clean PRs, reviewable changes, and production-ready testing from day one.

  • Threat-aware checks for auth, roles, and sensitive data flows
  • CI-friendly testing: unit + integration + critical path smoke tests
  • Performance budgets (Core Web Vitals-minded) and bundle checks
  • Structured logging + error tracking hooks (Sentry-ready)
  • Rollback-safe releases and clear release notes
