Digital Wallet for Business Cards, Event Passes, and Keys

THE CHALLENGE

Helping Users Share Professional Info at Events

Users needed an easy way to share professional information during networking events and see the impact. Wallet set out to centralize passes and profiles in one app and enable tracking of when and how business profiles were shared.

INITIAL STATE

OUR SOLUTION

Designing a Wallet with QR Sharing, Notifications, and Loyalty

Requirements

Clarifying requirements

Melt Studio defined Wallet as a wallet for business cards, tickets, and event passes, focused on networking where users share profiles via QR codes, track visits, and connect to loyalty rewards.

Application

Agile delivery and environments

Melt Studio created dev and production environments and a shared workspace. WalletPass generation, push notifications, and loyalty capabilities were prototyped in one-week sprints tracked in Linear.

Prototype

Release

Key milestones included WalletPass generation and proof-of-concepts for push notifications, QR-based information sharing, and a loyalty program where event attendees scan codes to earn points.

DELIVER STATE

The Platform & Real-World Event Use

From Developer Rotation Challenges to a Reliable Release

Our main challenge during development was an unexpected developer rotation and adjustment in team availability. Although it was a positive transition for our developers involved, it required brief onboarding for new contributors. Even with this adjustment, Wallet’s features from, WalletPass generation to QR-based sharing and loyalty program, were delivered with milestones completed early. The project could have moved even faster under fully stable team availability, but the final delivery remained efficient and on schedule.

Wallet is now actively used across US Venture Capital networking gatherings

helping attendees enhance high-value connections.

During these events, Melt Studio also showcases prototypes and product capabilities built through this collaboration ecosystem. Discover more at: Our Collaborations.

Thank you so much for this note and for all the work your team put into this project. It truly was such a great experience working together.

We are really happy with how the prototype turned out and especially grateful for the extra backend improvements your team made. Having a more stable and scalable foundation is huge for us as we head into launch, and it did not go unnoticed.

Thank you again for being such a thoughtful and proactive partner throughout this process. We are really excited about what is ahead.

Grateful, Lana

They're showing me the dashboards and they're like, you didn't ask us to do this, but we hope you like it. And I'm watching like, Holy smokes, this is even better than what I thought.
