SpieleMax

Magento development for a leading German retailer for children’s products.

Client Information

Spiele Max is a leading German retailer for children’s products, such as toys, games, sports, and apparel. The company promotes family values and offers a large selection of products from popular brands. Spiele Max operates approximately 50 branches in 11 federal states. The company also has a rapidly growing online store that Dinarys is delighted to improve.

The Client’s Challenge

The client’s existing web store was already based on the Magento 2 system. However, it contained bugs from previous vendors and required additional improvements because of the website’s poor performance and weak capacity to engage and retain new clients.


Thus, our main goal was to optimize website performance and improve the user experience by fixing bugs from previous developers, implementing additional adjustments, integrating new features, and providing ongoing support. To address the issue of user engagement and retention, we developed a loyalty system that functioned as a separate service for gifts and promo cards and integrated it with the current Magento 2 system.

Results

Upon completion of the project, the client received a fully operating e-commerce website with effective features that capture the client’s attention. By creating and integrating a customer loyalty program into the web store we managed to strengthen customer engagement.

We searched for developers that had the ambitions to improve our online shop, not only do as they got told, but guys who could also implement their own ideas into the running business. That is why we chose Dinarys. We are totally satisfied with the solution we received.
