Live Commerce and Real Time Auction Marketplace Platform Case Study

A live commerce platform combines real-time video, product discovery and transaction features so sellers can demonstrate products while viewers ask questions, bid or buy without leaving the experience.

DreamzTech developed the working core of a UAE-first marketplace with Flutter buyer and seller apps, a React web storefront, a React administration portal, live streaming, real-time auctions, seller onboarding, commerce, payments, shipping, disputes, wallets and bilingual support.

A seller presents an item during a live show. Buyers submit bids, the server validates each bid and timer rule, and accepted state is sent to connected clients in real time. The highest valid bid when the timer ends wins.

Anti-sniping extends an auction when a valid bid arrives near the end. It gives other buyers a defined opportunity to respond. The extension window, maximum extensions and minimum increment are configurable business rules.

If timers and bid history live only on a phone or browser, different users may see conflicting results after a network problem. Server-authoritative state gives every reconnecting client the same accepted history and outcome.

Video and bid events can travel through different delivery paths. The platform keeps the bid state authoritative and resynchronizes clients after interruptions. Lower-latency WebRTC delivery can reduce the gap but changes infrastructure and scaling requirements.

Yes. The documented design uses WebRTC ingest for mobile sellers and RTMP ingest for professional sellers using OBS.

The platform includes sudden-death auctions, bundles, lots and short flash auctions within live shows. It also supports separate Buy Now, Offer and Giveaway listing experiences.

The seller can reconnect and resume against server-held show and auction state. The experience includes connection indicators, pause and resume controls, and administrative exception tools.

A nine-step application can collect identity documents, a live selfie, trade-license and registration records, bank details, VAT information and agreement acceptance for administrative review.

Yes. The documented financial scope includes seller balances, top-ups, transaction history, bank withdrawals, fees, tips, payout queues and holds. Final public wording matches the approved production and regulatory model.

Stripe supports separate web and mobile checkout paths. The web uses Payment Intents, while the mobile application uses a token-based card flow. Apple Pay is not promised until its production scope is approved.

Public visitors can browse shows and listings and add products to a guest cart. Authentication is required when the user reaches a protected bidding or purchase action.

The platform connects cancellation, returns, evidence photos, seller counterclaims, itemized refunds and reviews with the same order record and status history.

iMile is documented as live. Emirates Post integration is underway. Each carrier uses its own adapter because authentication, rate and shipment models differ.

Yes. The documented mobile and Web Lite experiences support English and Arabic with a genuine right-to-left layout, localized formats and AED display.

The architecture includes multi-country and multi-currency conventions. Each new market still requires payment, tax, identity, shipping, consumer-protection and language configuration.

The platform supports chat, reactions, polls, giveaways, tips, animated gifts, show promotion, clips, replays, co-host requests and role-based moderation.

Administrators can manage sellers, tiers, listings, categories, auction timers, increments, anti-sniping rules, fees, shipping, orders, disputes, refunds, payouts and role access.

The supplied delivery record shows milestones 1 through 3 delivered and the operational-hardening milestone in review. Final UAT and production launch remain later stages and are not described as complete.

Publish the delivered product and architecture outcomes. Concurrent viewers, revenue, GMV, transaction volume, conversion, payout speed and performance improvements require approved production evidence.
