    Overview

    Catalyser is a purpose-driven platform that empowers workplace giving through corporate volunteering, payroll giving, and fundraising solutions. Designed to help organizations amplify their social impact, Catalyser supports a wide range of corporate giving initiatives through a streamlined digital experience.


    Challenge

    Catalyser needed a fast, scalable, and easily manageable platform to support its mission. With multiple functionalities and user journeys—from employees to corporate administrators—the platform had to deliver high performance while maintaining flexibility for ongoing updates and campaigns.


    Our Solution

    • Easy and flexible content updates for non-technical team members

    • A modular architecture to support future features and integrations

    In addition to development, we focused on:

    • Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO): Improving user flows, CTA placements, and reducing friction in sign-up and donation processes

    • Performance Optimization: Speed tuning, image optimization, and code-splitting for an enhanced user experience

    • Ongoing Maintenance & Support: Ensuring reliability and scalability as Catalyser continues to grow


    Impact

    • Improved page load speed by over 40%

    • Increased user engagement and sign-ups through optimized flows

    • Streamlined content management for faster campaign launches

    • Scalable architecture ready for future feature rollouts
