Overview

Built for a Super-App Market

Grab reset what Singapore expects from an app. One app for rides, food, payments and more — fast, reliable, always working. Every new app in SG is judged against that bar. Slow, buggy or confusing does not get a second chance here.

We build native-quality iOS and Android apps — and cross-platform with Flutter where it fits the budget and roadmap. Fintech, F&B ordering, logistics, education, loyalty: whatever the use case, the app is specified in writing, designed mobile-first and tested on real devices before launch.

Fintech deserves a special mention. Singapore's MAS-regulated environment means compliance is part of the build: KYC flows, data protection under PDPA, and security review. We build fintech apps with those requirements in the spec from day one.

Fintech and compliance

Fintech Apps: Compliance Is a Feature

Singapore takes financial regulation seriously — so must your app. MAS licensing, KYC/AML flows, data protection under PDPA: these are not legal footnotes, they are core user journeys. We design compliance into the onboarding flow so it feels smooth, not bureaucratic.

Security is engineered, not assumed. Encrypted storage, secure APIs, certificate pinning where appropriate, and penetration-test readiness. For anything touching money or personal data, we recommend independent security review before launch — and we build to pass it.

Performance on real SG networks. Users switch between 5G, MRT tunnels and office Wi-Fi. We build for graceful degradation: offline modes, smart caching and sync that handles interruption without losing data.

Launch is the start, not the finish. Store optimisation, ratings strategy, crash monitoring and a feature roadmap driven by analytics. The apps that win in SG iterate monthly; we stay on as your product team.

Questions

Frequently Asked

How much does app development cost in SGD?

Quoted per project in SGD after scoping. A focused MVP typically starts in the five figures SGD; complex apps with backends, payments and compliance run higher. You sign a written spec with a fixed figure before we build — no hourly black boxes.

How long does it take to build an app?

An MVP takes 3–5 months from spec to store; complex apps run 6–12 months. We build in sprints with test versions on your phone throughout, so progress is visible — not a big reveal at the end.

Should we build native or cross-platform with Flutter?

Flutter suits most business apps: one codebase, faster delivery, lower maintenance. True native fits performance-critical or hardware-heavy apps. We recommend based on your roadmap after discovery — we build both, so the advice is neutral.

Can you handle fintech compliance for Singapore?

We build fintech apps with MAS-aware requirements in the spec: KYC flows, PDPA data handling, audit trails and security review readiness. We are developers, not lawyers — we work alongside your legal counsel on licensing questions.

Do you handle App Store and Google Play submission?

Yes — submission, review responses and store listing optimisation are part of the launch. We have shipped through both stores' review processes and know what gets flagged.

What happens after launch?

Maintenance plans cover updates, OS compatibility, monitoring and SG-afternoon support. Most clients continue with a monthly roadmap: analytics review, feature prioritisation and iterative releases.
