Challenge

Zilch set an ambitious goal: launch a fully compliant digital wallet in just four months. Innovify was tasked with building the platform from the ground up, fast, secure, and ready for scale.

The project came with critical technical and compliance requirements:

  • PCI DSS certification and FCA approval, ensuring full regulatory compliance
  • Ultra-low latency transactions under 250 milliseconds, delivering a seamless user experience.
  • Successful integration of multiple third-party APIs, including GPS, Xero, and CashFlows

The solution is cloud-native, API-first, and built for scalability, enabling Zilch to launch confidently and expand across the UK market. With compliance-by-design and optimized architecture, the product is ready for rapid growth.

CodeMonk began as a straightforward talent marketplace.

But the market shifted. Companies needed:

  • Faster access to qualified engineers
  • Precision in talent matching
  • Automated vetting and compliant onboarding
  • Global availability without operational drag

The platform’s original architecture could not support the next phase of growth. To compete, CodeMonk needed to evolve into a dynamic, high-performance talent engine — one that could deliver accuracy, speed, and compliance at scale.
