Over the last few years, I ve noticed that many founders on Product Hunt are working on payments, loyalty, rewards, and QR-based platforms, yet the real challenges rarely get discussed openly. Most conversations stop at feature lists, while the actual complexity lives in onboarding flows, edge cases, security tradeoffs, and operational scalability.

CHIMAD is a digital payments and rewards platform we helped engineer, and I wanted to break down how it was built, what problems mattered most, and which decisions actually made a difference. Hopefully this helps anyone building something similar avoid a few painful mistakes.

Hey Product Hunt
I wanted to share a detailed build story around Quaha, a gamified learning app we helped design and engineer, because many founders here are tackling similar problems around engagement, retention, and scale in education and content-driven products.

This is not a launch post or a promo pitch. It s a transparent breakdown of what we built, why we built it that way, what went wrong, and what actually worked the kind of information I personally look for when browsing Product Hunt discussions.

If you re building in edtech, gamification, communities, or subscription products, this may be useful.
