The challenge
Gamer Factory needed its own store for gaming hardware — one where shoppers could build a PC part by part without having to figure out on their own which components work together.
A custom platform built to manage compatibility between every component in a PC build

7+ years

100%
custom-built around the brand guidelines and the platform's own requirements
4K+

Our solution
We built a fully custom platform with:
- A part-by-part PC builder that checks compatibility for every single component
- Cart, checkout and integrations with payment providers (MercadoPago, Modo, GoCuotas, Binance), shipping and marketing tools
- Automated, personalized notifications for order tracking and deals
- A gaming hardware catalog the team manages in-house, including the compatibility rules that power the PC builder
- Iterative, incremental development that keeps shipping new features
The result
- A technically complex purchase, now far simpler to understand
- A store that keeps evolving, with new features rolling out
- Fully custom development that stays true to the brand guidelines
- Multiple payment gateways, giving shoppers more ways to pay
- Compatibility rules that grow with the catalog
- New gaming hardware comes out all the time. So the compatibility rules aren't hard-coded: Gamer Factory's team sets them up from the catalog, and the builder stays current with every product they add.
