Partsbuzz

Designed and developed Partsbuzz, a high-performance automotive marketplace with real-time chat, advanced search & filtering, multi-gateway payments, secure authentication, and scalable checkout & order processing for the best buying experience.

Overview

Online marketplaces are not a new concept—they are a platform that connects manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers. Multiple sellers list their products for purchase with complete details and images. Buyers compare products and purchase according to their preferences. 

Partsbuzz needed a powerful, scalable platform to revolutionize the buying and selling of automotive parts. Unlike generic e-commerce solutions, they required a system that could:

  • Easily connect manufacturers, distributors, and suppliers with buyers.
  • Enable real-time interactions through chat and negotiation tools.
  • Provide advanced search and filtering for precise product discovery.
  • Support secure, multi-gateway payments (PayPal, Stripe, Easypaisa).
  • Optimize inventory management for sellers with intuitive listing tools.

Building this required a robust architecture using Laravel, MySQL, Firebase, and API integrations, ensuring a high-speed experience for both web and mobile users.

Strategy and Planning

Based on multiple sessions with the team, we outlined the main pillars of Partsbuzz’s business model. First, it was important for Partsbuzz to have a simple design that inspired trust and confidence in buyers and sellers. Second, it was important to provide easy navigation, secure checkout, and value-adding features to users.

We built a platform that is intuitive and easy to use. The professional layout, advanced search capabilities, product detail pages, product reviews, and buyer comments inspire trust. The cart and checkout processes are simple and secure, further solidifying the platform’s impression.

Creating A Seamless User Experience

It was critical for us to create a simple and intuitive interface so a broader audience could confidently sell and purchase on the new platform. When addressing key UX issues, we kept the brand narrative, identity, and creative strategy front and center. Guiding our design process was a desire to keep the design as simple as possible without becoming boring! We also wanted to communicate trustworthiness and transparency to inspire confidence in the marketplace. The choice of colors and the easy-to-navigate layout reinforce this message. 

Ensuring a consistent, responsive, and user-friendly experience across both web and mobile platforms required extensive testing and optimization. Differences in screen sizes, device capabilities, and browser performance created UI/UX inconsistencies.

Our Solution
  • Developed a progressive web app (PWA) using Laravel Livewire to ensure smooth synchronization between web and mobile platforms.
  • Utilized lazy loading and image compression (WebP format) to optimize performance.
  • Integrated Memcached for faster data retrieval, improving page load times.
  • Applied Firebase analytics to track user behavior and optimize UI/UX iteratively based on real user interactions.
Impact on KPIs
  • Improved load times by 40%, enhancing user engagement.
  • Achieved a 92% Lighthouse score for web performance.
  • Ensured an adaptive cross-device experience, reducing bounce rates.

Key Features

High-Performance Product Listings & Detail Pages

With potentially thousands of automotive parts listings, site performance needed to be fast and filterable by brand, category, and attributes with dedicated product pages.

Our Solution
  • Added Horizontal image sliders and tabbed sections (Overview, Specs, Reviews) for organized content.
  • Built a MySQL-optimized backend with indexed filtering by categories, brands, and keywords.
  • Implemented Laravel Livewire components for reactive interfaces without full page reloads.
  • Introduced a brand slider, top banner ads, and “Seller Picks” carousel, all cached via Memcached.
  • Added lazy loading and dual view options (grid & list) for smoother UX.

Efficient Product Search and Filtering

With a vast inventory of automotive parts, users needed an efficient search and filtering system that could handle complex queries while maintaining fast response times.

Our Solution
  • Implemented Elasticsearch for high-speed full-text searches.
  • Optimized MySQL queries with indexed columns for faster database retrieval.
  • Used Laravel Scout for advanced filtering based on price, brand, type, and ratings.
  • Introduced debounced search inputs to prevent excessive API requests and improve responsiveness.
Impact on KPIs
  • Reduced search query execution time by 70%.
  • Allowed users to refine searches dynamically without lag.
  • Increased product discovery and conversion rates.

Cart Management & Inventory Syncing

Handling real-time inventory updates while preventing issues like overselling and cart abandonment required an optimized backend structure.

Our Solution
  • Leveraged Redis caching to store cart data temporarily, reducing database load.
  • Implemented event-driven architecture using Laravel Queues to update stock in real-time upon checkout.
  • Developed an auto-remove feature to remove out-of-stock products from carts dynamically.
  • Integrated cron jobs to send abandoned cart reminders, boosting conversion rates.
Impact on KPIs
  • Reduced cart abandonment rates by 25%.
  • Prevented overselling issues with real-time inventory tracking.
  • Enhanced checkout efficiency with automated updates.

Simple and Secure Checkout & Order Processing

Handling a high volume of transactions while ensuring a frictionless checkout experience required backend scalability.

Our Solution
  • Used queue workers in Laravel to process orders asynchronously without blocking the main application.

  • Enabled faster transaction processing under high traffic.
  • Improved user satisfaction with a smooth order flow.

Order History & Tracking System

Providing users with real-time order tracking and history while minimizing database load required an efficient data retrieval mechanism.

Our Solution
  • Used MySQL partitioning to optimize order history retrieval for high-volume users.
  • Implemented event-driven notifications via Firebase for real-time order status updates.
  • Designed a RESTful API endpoint to allow users to track orders without excessive database queries.
Impact on KPIs
  • Reduced order history page load time by 60%.
  • Provided real-time tracking updates without server overload.
  • Increased user retention through better post-purchase engagement.

Secure Seller Onboarding & Product Publishing

Partsbuzz needed an intuitive, structured page for sellers to list products with correct categories and attributes.

Our Solution
