TWINT Scales Into Switzerland’s No. 1 Payment App
TWINT Becomes Switzerland’s Top Payment App, Partnering with Modeso for Long-Term Tech Support
TWINT has established itself as Switzerland’s leading mobile payment platform, utilized by over 6 million users daily for transactions, vouchers, promotions, and partner services. As TWINT expanded its offerings beyond just payments, it faced the challenge of quickly launching new partner modules and user-centric features while maintaining Swiss financial security, stability during high traffic surges, and adhering to strict release schedules. Modeso has been selected as a long-term technology partner, responsible for the complete design, development, and maintenance of TWINT’s marketplace and partner function modules.
They implemented and scaled various in-app features such as Digital Vouchers, Super Deals, Storefinder, InsurHub (in collaboration with Würth), and Spin & Win. Modeso developed a cloud-native, autoscaling infrastructure on Google Cloud Platform using Kubernetes to manage significant traffic spikes. They ensured that the system met security protocols in accordance with Swiss financial regulations and OWASP standards, collaborating closely with TWINT’s internal teams to remain in sync with their release timelines.
Results include supporting over 6 million active users and processing more than 150,000 orders per hour during peak times, with over 3 million digital vouchers purchased, around 300,000 deals redeemed, and nearly 6 million Spin & Win spins. This partnership has led to increased user engagement, the introduction of new revenue-generating features, and enhanced competitiveness in Switzerland. The collaboration, which began in 2020, has been instrumental in transforming TWINT into a comprehensive digital marketplace.
