Smart Experience Lifestyle Platform for CDL
Challenge
City Developments Limited (CDL) faced the challenge of creating a seamless digital platform to enhance tenant engagement and provide a smart lifestyle experience for consumers. Without a unified e-commerce solution, it was difficult for CDL’s mall tenants to connect with consumers and promote their products effectively. CDL needed an innovative platform that could bridge this gap, enabling tenants to showcase and sell their products while offering consumers a convenient shopping experience.

CDL needed an innovative platform that could bridge this gap, enabling tenants to showcase and sell their products while offering consumers a convenient shopping experience.
Solution
CDL collaborated with Kyanon Digital to build CityNexus Marketplace, a public-facing e-commerce website embedded as a webview on the CityNexus App. This platform not only supports CDL’s mall tenants in expanding their reach but also enhances the overall CityNexus experience, creating a connected and vibrant lifestyle ecosystem.
1. Decoupled Front-End Marketplace for Consumers
The first approach focused on building a decoupled front-end for the CityNexus Marketplace, ensuring a seamless and engaging user experience for consumers. This architecture separates the front-end from the backend, allowing for greater flexibility in design and faster performance. Consumers can easily browse products, make purchases, and enjoy a responsive and visually appealing interface. By adopting a decoupled architecture, the platform ensures scalability and adaptability, providing consumers with a high-quality shopping experience that meets modern e-commerce standards.
2. Multi-Tenancy E-Commerce Platform for Tenants
For CDL’s tenants, a multi-tenancy e-commerce platform was developed to allow them to manage their businesses independently. This system offers robust tools for managing product catalogs, order processing, and sales tracking—all from a single dashboard. Each tenant operates within their own secure environment while sharing the platform’s core infrastructure. This multi-tenancy approach simplifies operations for tenants, helping them efficiently manage their online presence, increase sales, and engage more effectively with consumers.
3. Automated Payout System for Platform Operators
To improve operational efficiency for CDL, an automated payout system was integrated into the platform to handle tenant payments. This feature reduces manual workload, ensuring accurate and timely payouts while minimizing errors. With automated financial management, platform operators can focus on strategic tasks, such as growing the marketplace and enhancing tenant services, rather than managing complex payment processes. This automation not only improves efficiency but also strengthens trust and transparency with tenants.
