Endicia operates in the shipping software solution market space providing services to warehouses and e-commerce merchants. This project aims to branch out from Endicia’s shipper oriented solutions, and instead form a connection with the recipients of packages, the ecommerce buyers. For an effective connection to be formed, buyers must be given enticing reasons to connect, offered an easy method of registration, and provided valuable services. By conducting market research, establishing product requirements, and iterative implementation, we developed a buyer link prototype and laid the groundwork for Endicia to expand into the e-commerce buyer market. The prototype includes a mobile application, a web application, an API backend, and a database built with modern frameworks and technologies.
