The Twisto app has been a leading element of the Czech fintech startup scene since 2013. To maintain its leadership as a payments innovator, Twisto engaged Vacuumlabs to support the development of essential customer experiences:
People at Vacuumlabs are incredibly smart, intelligent, and also have very senior experience. They know what they’re doing and can add value within a couple of days or weeks. For us, they are a guarantee of quality and an immediate boost to our development capacity.
MICHAL ŠMÍDA
CEO OF TWISTO
Our partnership with Twisto began with two Vacuumlabs engineers working on a shortlist of features. Over time, we increased the scope of our support, ultimately growing to a team of 30 engineers working seamlessly with Twisto’s teams. Our support resulted in a rapid growth in customer registration efficiency. Throughout our partnership, we have helped Twisto automate essential journeys and integrate a range of tools and payment options. These include:
Automated the processing of client data to improve registration speed for customers and make life easier for back office staff.
Installment plans provide more flexibility
by allowing customers to spread payment between 3 to 12 months.
Only two months to launch installments
which was a record time to launch a new feature
Hyper-targeted promotions
to drive customer loyalty by messaging the right customers with the right message at the perfect time with Exponea
Streamlined payment collection for back office
by integrating new CRM to track and chase customers who have missed payment.
Integrated Apple Pay
functionality, giving customers a more choice in how they pay.
In 2021, Twisto was acquired by the Australian based online payments platform Zip. Throughout this growth, Twisto continues to choose Vacuumlabs teams as their engineering partner to implement new features and expand to new markets.
Twisto is a business with the potential for exponential growth. Their own development team extends so it’s extraordinary they kept us as a third party vendor. We have formed the team responsible for the profitable features of the Twisto and have gained the trust for development and deployment without additional review. I appreciate the open communication and reception of any kind of feedback, thanks to which we were able to participate in the product and the creation process of Twisto.
