CASE STUDY: LAUNDRY TECHNOLOGY IN DUBAI

Le Degraissage: Apps, Website and Operations

For Le Degraissage, a premium laundry service in Dubai, Digital Alta built the website, customer apps, driver app and operations dashboard, connected to its existing POS. From choosing a service to confirming payment, we brought the daily workflow into one connected platform.

THE TRANSFORMATION

Before. System. After.

01

The brief

Le Degraissage needed a digital experience that matched its premium laundry service and supported the team doing the work. Customers needed clear booking choices and order information. Staff needed to see what had been requested, coordinate drivers and follow service progress. The existing POS had to remain the source for invoices and garment processing.

02

Website and customer experience

We developed the public website around the brand, its services and access to the apps. Across web and mobile, we used the familiar green identity, consistent typography and clear actions. The customer apps for iPhone and Android cover addresses, pickup scheduling, active and past orders, invoices and payment, with multilingual screens for the people using the service in Dubai.

03

Booking with the right choices

Customers select their laundry service separately from delivery priority. Ironing and eco dry cleaning are distinct choices, while Normal and Express describe turnaround. The selected service appears with the order so operations can see the request. Pickup slots disappear when their start time arrives. Express messaging explains the 1 PM cutoff and the applicable delivery schedule before the customer confirms.

04

A practical driver app

The Android driver app supports mobile-number login and assigned pickup and delivery work. At collection, drivers enter the total quantity, a pickup description and comments instead of building an item-by-item catalogue at the door. Those details give the operations team a record to work from. Customer tracking screens provide contact actions for the assigned driver.

05

Orders at the centre of operations

We reorganised the dashboard around a compact, expandable order list. Staff can see Normal or Express priority, the booked laundry service, pickup details, driver assignment, payment and service progress without opening every order. Detailed actions sit within each row. Filters keep cancelled and older work out of the everyday queue while preserving the records for reference.

06

An API connection to the existing POS

We built the connection between the POS, dashboard and mobile apps around the existing laundry workflow. The dashboard reads the actual POS service stages. Customers see a simpler On service status during processing. Delivery assignment checks that all items are ready. The integration does not rewrite POS invoices or garment statuses; it reports confirmed app payments back to the POS.

07

Invoices and mobile payments

POS invoices appear in the customer app for review and payment. We integrated PayTabs with card payments, Apple Pay on iPhone and Google Pay on Android. Payment handling checks the provider result before confirming success and reconciling the POS receipt. We also refined the success screen, payment-method labels and interrupted-payment handling so the interface explains what happens next.

08

Reporting and booking controls

The dashboard includes app-performance reporting for registrations, orders, invoice value, payments and available platform information. Store downloads and update adoption are separate from customer registrations and bookings, so the team can interpret the figures correctly. Duplicate-booking protection and dashboard warnings help operations identify overlapping requests without deleting customer records.

09

Release and ongoing refinement

Our work included device checks, store submissions, listing content and updates for both customer platforms and the Android driver app. We checked upgrade paths with existing logins and orders retained, and refined booking, address, invoice and payment screens using staff and customer feedback. The published platform brings customer requests and operational information together while keeping the existing POS workflow in place.

HOW IT CAME TOGETHER

A customer booking is only the beginning. We connected what happens next, from pickup and garment care to invoicing, payment and delivery.

01

Understand the handoffs

We mapped the customer, driver, branch and POS journeys, including where a booking becomes an invoice and when an order is ready to leave the branch. This established which system owns each part of the workflow.

02

Design around daily tasks

We shaped the booking flow, driver actions and dashboard around the decisions each person needs to make. Service type, turnaround, quantity, payment and operational status each have a clear place.

03

Build and connect

We developed the web and mobile experiences, dashboard changes and API integration. POS service stages remain under staff control, while verified app payments can be reconciled back to the invoice.

04

Test, publish and improve

We checked real devices, app updates, payment results and operational screens, then managed store releases. Feedback from staff and customers informed further changes to the working platform.

COMMON QUESTIONS

What decision-makers
usually ask.

What did Digital Alta deliver for Le Degraissage?+

The project covers the public website, iOS and Android customer apps, an Android driver app, the operations dashboard and APIs connecting the platform to the existing POS. It also includes booking rules, invoice visibility, payment integration, reporting and app-store release work.

Did the project replace the existing POS?+

No. The POS remains responsible for invoicing and garment service stages. The integration reads that information for the dashboard and customer apps, and sends back payment confirmation for app orders after the payment provider confirms the result.

How are customer and staff order statuses different?+

Operations can see the actual service stages received from the POS. Customers see a simpler On service status while items are being processed. Readiness is checked before delivery assignment, keeping the customer view understandable without removing the detail staff need.

Which payment options are included?+

The customer payment flow uses PayTabs for card payments, Apple Pay on supported iPhones and Google Pay on supported Android devices. Invoices and payment confirmations connect back to the operational workflow. Wallet availability also depends on the device and payment-provider configuration.

Can Digital Alta build a similar system for another service business?+

Yes. Laundry, cleaning and other businesses with bookings and field teams can use the same approach: map the workflow, define customer and staff needs, and connect the existing systems where appropriate. The scope depends on the business rules, integration access and how the team operates.

Where should a business start?+

Bring us the current booking process, the software your team already uses and the steps that create extra work. We can review the customer journey and operational handoffs, then propose a practical scope for the website, apps, dashboard and integrations. Use the enquiry form below to discuss your project.
