Ditching Plastic
Case Study

A custom cooperative purchasing platform with deferred payment capture, secure tokenized storage, and intelligent split‑shipment orchestration.

Overview

The platform aggregates demand to unlock bulk pricing. Customers express interest, store payment details securely, and are charged once a minimum threshold is met. The system then splits and routes final orders to end users.
