Mobile App Development for Crypto Launchpad (IDO/IEO)
We build mobile launchpads turnkey — from scratch to publication in App Store and Google Play. Development complies with App Store Review Guidelines (Section 4.2, 5.1). A crypto launchpad (IDO or IEO) is a platform where users participate in token sales. In the mobile app we implement: a project showcase, participation mechanism with USDT/BNB investment, tier access system, and vesting claim after TGE.
Moving IDO to a mobile app brings three key advantages: retention through push notifications (1.3–1.4x conversion increase), convenient transaction signing via WalletConnect or built-in wallet, and a unique UX with a token portfolio dashboard and participation history. We’ll assess your project and propose a solution within 1–2 days.
How Is the Tier System Structured?
Most launchpads use a tier system: the more native tokens a user holds (or the longer they are staked), the higher the tier—and the larger the IDO allocation. The tier is calculated based on balance + staking at the snapshot block. The logic resides on the smart contract side or off-chain with Merkle-proof.
// iOS — check user tier struct UserTier { let level: Int // 0–4 let name: String // Bronze / Silver / Gold / Platinum / Diamond let stakedAmount: BigDecimal let allocationMultiplier: Decimal } func getUserTier(address: EthereumAddress) async throws -> UserTier { let staked = try await stakingContract.balanceOf(account: address) return TierCalculator.calculateTier(stakedAmount: staked) } UI: profile screen with current tier, next tier, and amount to add. Progress bar "to next tier". Example tier table:
| Tier | Min Stake (tokens) | Allocation Multiplier | Vesting Acceleration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Bronze | 100 | 1x | No |
| Silver | 500 | 1.5x | 10% |
| Gold | 2000 | 2x | 20% |
| Platinum | 10000 | 3x | 30% |
IDO Project Screen
The individual IDO page is the core of the launchpad. Structure:
- Header: logo, name, network, token contract
- Timer: time to start/end/claim
- Progress: raised X of Y USDT (progress bar)
- Token price, total supply, vesting schedule
- "Participate" button (only during whitelisting/sale period)
- Tabs: About / Tokenomics / Team / Whitepaper
Sale progress is real-time via TokensPurchased(buyer, amount) event or polling every 30 seconds.
How to Participate in an IDO
-
Whitelist registration. Sign a message (EIP-712) or send a transaction
registerForSale(projectId). - Approval. After verification (manual or automatic), the user receives an allocation.
- Approve token. The user calls
approveto allow the smart contract to spend USDT/BNB. - Purchase. The transaction
buy(amount)is sent. The user sees the estimated token amount and vesting schedule. - Track status. The project screen shows sale progress and time until claim start.
// Android — participate in IDO via smart contract suspend fun participateInIdo( saleContract: String, paymentToken: String, // USDT address paymentAmount: BigInteger ): String { // Step 1: approve USDT val approveTx = approveERC20(token = paymentToken, spender = saleContract, amount = paymentAmount) waitForReceipt(approveTx) // Step 2: participation val buyFunction = Function("buy", listOf(Uint256(paymentAmount)), emptyList()) return sendTransaction(to = saleContract, data = FunctionEncoder.encode(buyFunction)) } Why Is Vesting Important?
Vesting prevents immediate token dumping. After TGE (Token Generation Event), tokens unlock according to a schedule. The smart contract stores a vestingSchedule for each participant.
// iOS — calculate available claim func availableToClaim(beneficiary: EthereumAddress) async throws -> BigUInt { let schedule = try await vestingContract.getVestingSchedule(address: beneficiary) let elapsed = BigUInt(Date().timeIntervalSince1970) - schedule.startTime let vested = min(schedule.totalAmount, schedule.totalAmount * elapsed / schedule.duration) return vested - schedule.released } Claim screen: vesting progress (visual timeline), unlocked today, total locked, "Claim" button with amount.
Staking the Native Token
Staking is the foundation of the tier system. The user deposits tokens into a staking contract (stake(amount)) and receives a tier. The lock period may be fixed or flexible with a reduced multiplier.
// Android — staking with lock period data class StakingOption( val lockDays: Int, val tierMultiplier: Double, // 1.0x / 1.5x / 2.0x val earlyUnstakePenalty: Int // % fee for early withdrawal ) Display on unstake: penalty and days remaining in lock.
Push Notifications and Reminders
- Whitelist start for favorite projects
- Application approved/rejected
- IDO starts in 1 hour
- Participation transaction confirmed
- Token unlock via vesting (claim available)
Users subscribe to notifications for specific projects—not a broadcast to all.
What Is Included in Development
- Design mockups (Figma) and prototyping
- iOS (Swift 5.9+, SwiftUI) and Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose) development
- Smart contract integration (EVM, Solana)
- Backend (Node.js/Python) with GraphQL or REST API
- Staking and tier distribution system
- Vesting mechanism with custom schedules
- Push notifications (APNs/FCM)
- WalletConnect integration and store deployment
- Audit and testing (unit, UI, integration)
- Technical documentation and team training
Common Mistakes in Launchpad Development
- Not accounting for gas limits on different networks. We optimize queries: use multicall and batch transactions. - Lack of balance caching — users wait 10+ seconds. We implement local storage with WebSocket updates. - Weak error handling scenarios: fallback to RPC, alerts for stuck transactions.Development Timelines
| Component | Duration |
|---|---|
| Project showcase + IDO detail page | 1 week |
| Tier system + staking | 1 week |
| Whitelist registration | 3 days |
| IDO participation (approve + buy) | 1 week |
| Vesting and claim | 1 week |
| Push notifications | 3 days |
MVP launchpad: 6–8 weeks. With KYC integration, multi-chain support (EVM + Solana), referral program — 3 months.
