Building Cardrop:
Marketplace for Used Cars with
a Custom Business Management System
The traditional used car industry is often characterized as sleazy and rife with unscrupulous sales tactics. Customers who want to buy a used car often have fears that the vehicle they select might have problems. It’s almost a rule that used car buyers distrust sellers. So they want to make sure they’re not getting ripped off.
The founders of Cardrop, a marketplace that connects car buyers and sellers, have a background in car dealership and car insurance. They realized that the lack of consumer trust is one of the biggest problems in the industry.
Cardrop is a Swedish marketplace for used cars that matches buyers and sellers and handles the car-buying process in a safe and reliable manner
Our team provided web development services for the following products:
- The end-user facing web-based marketplace solution for sellers and buyers
- The business management system that offers sales management, finance management, inventory control, and client management functionalities.

Project overview
The Cardrop platform operates as a digital car broker. Representatives of Cardrop inspect the vehicles, give the best possible market price for these vehicles, and sell them on the marketplace. Cardrop ensures that vehicles are picked up and delivered to the nearest delivery point or even to a customer’s doorstep.

We also integrated the service with BankID API, the leading electronic identification system in Sweden, to let Cardrop’s customers sign transactions electronically. When the status of the request changes, Cardrop’s customers get a text notification via SMS.
The Cardrop platform offers a convenient process of buying a used car and a custom business management system that combines resource planning with customer and inventory management functionalities.
Technology stack
The main challenge of the Cardrop project was developing a business management system with a complicated business logic on the server side.
