Problem statement

99Keys needed to bring a new rental marketplace to market with confidence. The platform had to support guests, hosts, search, bookings, and payments from day one.

Objectives & goals

  • 1. Launch a scalable rental marketplace
  • 2. Establish a strong and credible brand
  • 3. Support guests and hosts on one platform
