Your apps.
From source code to the stores.
Our team customizes your project, builds your iOS and Android apps, and handles App Store and Google Play submission under your brand.
The native mobile apps use Flutter, a cross-platform framework. Your web platform and member database run on a server you control.
Brand & customize
Adapt the app’s identity, profile questions, navigation, and features to your community.
Compile & prepare the apps
We build your project’s code into native iOS and Android apps and configure them for release.
Submit & support review
We help prepare and submit your apps under your brand, and work through store review feedback.
Can I build a community app without dating features?
Yes. The community experience can be shaped around a hobby, professional network, local group, or brand. Your navigation, profiles, and workflows can be configured or customized for your concept.
Is this a hosted SaaS subscription?
The core SkaDate platform is licensed software installed on a compatible server under your control. You receive the source code covered by your package and control your member database. Optional plugins, hosted features, support, and external services have their own terms.
Can this work for a high-risk community?
We can assess the content, access rules, hosting, payments, and distribution your concept needs. PaymentCloud merchant-account assistance and Authorize.NET integration are options for eligible projects. Acceptance depends on your actual activity, location, and provider review; a community app does not itself authorize regulated transactions.
What does SkaDate provide beyond Community Hub?
SkaDate provides the foundation for member accounts, custom profile questions, photographs, search, private messaging, notifications, memberships, and administration. Community Hub adds the groups, feeds, events, and forums. We select the configuration and plugins that fit your concept.
Will you build the mobile apps and help with submission?
Yes. Our services can cover branding, customization, compiling the Flutter mobile code into iOS and Android apps, and assistance with App Store and Google Play submission. We agree the scope with you and help address review feedback.
Can I use my own payment provider?
Connect your merchant account through an available billing plugin or an agreed custom integration. Website gateways include Stripe, PayPal, CCBill, and Authorize.NET; documented PWA options include Stripe and PayPal. Native apps use store in-app purchases. We confirm compatibility and provider eligibility for your project.
Can I move my community and existing subscriptions?
Your website and member database can be moved to a compatible server. Existing subscriptions and stored payment credentials depend on your current provider and available migration options. We review exports, billing arrangements, and the migration plan before promising continuity.
What will I see in the live demo?
The demo page gives you access to SkaDate’s mobile and desktop experiences and admin tools. The mobile demo uses dating-themed content; explore Community Hub to see the groups, feeds, events, and discussions that can be adapted for your audience.
