Project Scope & Description
Project Scope & Background
Aura Pay was conceived to revolutionize digital payment solutions for retail consumers and merchants across Saudi Arabia and the GCC region. Built from the ground up by Yavcode’s senior engineering team, the platform combines modern financial infrastructure with intuitive, user-centric mobile applications for iOS and Android.
Key Engineering Pillars
- Biometric Security & Encryption: Implemented hardware-backed key storage (iOS Keychain & Android Keystore) alongside AES-256 payload encryption to guarantee user funds and personal data protection.
- Native Arabic & English RTL Experience: Designed custom layout engine components that dynamically adapt to right-to-left (RTL) reading flows without layout shifting or performance degradation.
- Sub-Second Transaction Processing: Built high-concurrency microservices on Node.js and Redis caching layers, capable of handling peak holiday shopping traffic seamlessly.
- SAMA & Regulatory Compliance: Automated compliance auditing and transaction logging in full accordance with Saudi Central Bank (SAMA) cyber security framework directives.
Aura Financial needed a high-security, fast mobile banking app compliant with Gulf financial regulations (SAMA) that offered native Arabic RTL support without sacrificing UI responsiveness or transaction speed.
We engineered a cross-platform mobile application using React Native with custom native modules for biometric authentication, end-to-end encrypted API endpoints, and a bilingual design system tuned for Middle Eastern users.
