Build a Short-Term Rental App (WEB + iOS + Android + Admin Dashboard) — MVP Project Overview We are looking for an experienced mobile app developer (or small team) to build the MVP of a short-term rental marketplace app — targeting the local/regional market. The app will allow property hosts to list their spaces and guests to discover, book, and pay for short-term stays directly through the platform. This is a startup MVP, so we need clean, scalable code and a working product — not a prototype. We want someone who can take ownership, communicate clearly, and deliver on time. Platforms Required: • iOS App (iPhone) • Android App • Web-based Admin Dashboard Languages Supported: Arabic (RTL), , English (LTR) — full RTL/LTR layout switching required Budget: $3000 – $5,000 USD (fixed price, milestone-based) Timeline: 8 weeks Project Type: Fixed Price | Milestone Payments Who We Are Looking For We need a developer or team with: • Proven experience building marketplace or booking apps • Strong portfolio with React Native or Flutter apps (cross-platform preferred) • Experience with backend development (Node.js, Firebase, or similar) • Demonstrated experience with RTL (Right-to-Left) UI layouts — Arabic support is mandatory, not optional • Experience with multi-language / i18n (internationalization) in mobile apps • Familiarity with payment gateway and digital wallet integration • Ability to build a web-based admin panel with RTL support • Good English communication skills • Ability to provide full source code upon project completion • Previous booking app, or rental platform experience is a big plus ️ Core Features Required (MVP Scope) Multilingual & RTL Support (Critical Requirement) • Full support for 3 languages: Arabic, and English • Complete RTL (Right-to-Left) layout for Arabic — all screens, icons, navigation, and text alignment must mirror correctly • LTR (Left-to-Right) layout for English • Language switcher accessible from settings • All UI components, forms, buttons, menus, and the admin dashboard must adapt dynamically to the selected language direction • Fonts must support Arabic scripts correctly This is not just a translation task. The entire UI must be architecturally designed for RTL from the start. Do not apply RTL as an afterthought. Authentication & User Management • Primary login method: Mobile phone number + WhatsApp OTP verification o User enters their phone number → receives OTP via WhatsApp message → verified and logged in o This must work reliably on both iOS and Android • Secondary login method: Gmail / Google Sign-In + password • Separate roles: Guest and Host • Profile creation with photo, bio, and identity verification status • Password reset via email (for Gmail users) • Session management with secure token handling Property Listings (Host Side) • Hosts can create, edit, and delete property listings (Listing requires a Moderator to approve it before it appears in listings ) • Upload multiple photos and YouTube link video per listing • Add title, description, location (map pin), property type, amenities • Set price per night, weekend price, set pre-defined cancelation policy, minimum/maximum stay, availability calendar • Mark listing as active or inactive Search & Discovery (Guest Side) • Search by location, check-in/check-out dates, number of guests • Filter results by price range, property type, amenities, rating • Map view and list view for browsing results • Property detail page with photos, description, host info, reviews, and map Booking System • Real-time availability calendar • Instant booking or request-to-book options • Booking request flow with confirmation/rejection by host • Booking summary page (dates, price breakdown, total) • Booking history for both guests and hosts Internal Wallet & Payment System This is a core feature of the platform. Both guests and hosts must have an internal platform wallet. Internal Wallet (Guest & Host): • Every user (guest and host) has a wallet balance inside the app • Guests can deposit funds into their wallet via local digital payment gateways • Guests pay for bookings directly from their wallet balance • Hosts receive booking earnings into their wallet automatically after checkout • Both guests and hosts can withdraw funds from their wallet to their local digital wallet/bank (Withdrawals are Manual and approved and done by moderators and admins) • Wallet transaction history (deposits, payments, earnings, withdrawals) • Wallet balance always visible on the home screen/dashboard Payment Gateway Integration (Local Digital Wallets): • Integration with local digital payment gateways ( we will confirm which ones during onboarding) • The developer must have experience or be willing to integrate with local payment APIs • Deposit flow: User selects gateway → redirected or enters wallet credentials → funds added to internal wallet • Withdrawal flow: User requests withdrawal → selects gateway → funds sent to their local wallet account • Admin can view all transactions and manually approve withdrawals if needed Booking Payment Flow: • Guest initiates booking → funds held/reserved from wallet balance • Upon host confirmation → funds remain reserved until checkout • After checkout → payment released to host's wallet (minus platform service fee) • Cancellation policy: refund to guest wallet based on cancellation rules set per listing Platform Service Fee: • Admin sets a configurable service fee percentage • Fee automatically deducted from each transaction and credited to platform account Reviews & Ratings • Guests can review hosts and properties after checkout • Hosts can review guests • Star rating system (1–5) with written comments • Average rating displayed on listing and profile In-App Messaging • Real-time chat between host and guest per booking only after initial reservation is accepted by the host • Message notifications (push notifications) • Message history stored per booking Notifications • Push notifications for booking requests, confirmations, messages • Email notifications for key actions (booking confirmed, payment received) ️ Maps & Location • Google Maps integration for property location display • Location-based search • Nearby properties on map ️ Admin Dashboard (Web-Based) The admin panel should allow us to manage the platform with the following features: • User Management — view, suspend, or delete guest/host accounts • Listing Management — approve, reject, or remove property listings • Booking Overview — view all bookings, statuses, and revenue • Wallet & Transaction Management — view all internal wallet balances, deposits, withdrawals, and platform fee earnings; manually approve or reject withdrawal requests • Payment Gateway Monitoring — track gateway transactions and statuses • Reviews Moderation — flag or remove inappropriate reviews • Analytics Dashboard — total users, total bookings, revenue charts, wallet volume • Service Fee Configuration — set and update platform commission percentage • Push Notification Sender — send announcements to all users or segments • Language/Content Management — manage Arabic, Kurdish, and English text for key UI strings • Support Ticket View — basic contact/support form submissions • Sub admin and permissions for accountants, moderator or support account • Admin has access to read conversation between host and Guest • Promotion discount Code Required Tech Stack We are open to discussion, but prefer the following: Layer Preferred Technologies Mobile App React Native or Flutter (must support RTL natively) Internationalization i18n / react-i18next / Flutter Intl — Arabic, Kurdish, English Backend/API Node.js (Express) or Firebase Database PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or Firebase Firestore Authentication Firebase Auth (Phone/WhatsApp OTP) + Google Sign-In WhatsApp OTP Twilio WhatsApp API, 360dialog, or WhatsApp Business API Internal Wallet Custom wallet logic on backend with transaction ledger Payment Gateways Local gateways: Push Notifications Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) File/Image Storage AWS S3, Firebase Storage, or Cloudinary Admin Dashboard React.js or [login to view URL] with RTL support (e.g., using MUI RTL or Ant Design RTL) Hosting AWS, Google Cloud, or DigitalOcean

Hi, I will deliver your rental marketplace MVP — Flutter apps for iOS and Android with full RTL/LTR architecture, Node.js backend with internal wallet logic, and a React-based admin dashboard — all within your 8-week timeline. For the RTL support, I will structure the entire widget tree around `Directionality` inheritance from day one, so every screen — navigation, forms, map overlays, chat bubbles — mirrors correctly without per-component overrides. The internal wallet will use a double-entry transaction ledger on PostgreSQL, ensuring every deposit, booking hold, fee deduction, and withdrawal is auditable and consistent even under concurrent requests. Questions: 1) Which WhatsApp OTP provider do you prefer — Twilio, 360dialog, or another — and do you already have a WhatsApp Business API account approved? Ready to start whenever you are. Kamran

I have experience working on booking and marketplace-style applications, including features like user roles (guest/host), real-time availability, booking flows, wallet systems, and payment integrations.

This is a complex but clearly scoped MVP request, and building a clean, scalable multilingual rental marketplace app with full RTL support and integrated wallet/payment features is doable within your timeline. From past projects, I helped a regional booking app implement full RTL layout from the ground up, ensuring flawless Arabic UX, not just a text flip. I also built wallet systems with local payment gateways and manual withdrawals, which matched your core requirement for handling deposits, booking payments, earnings, and withdrawals securely. To hit the 8-week goal, I suggest we prioritize critical flows like WhatsApp OTP login and core booking with wallet payments first since these often need careful testing in local environments. Are you set on a particular local payment gateway already, or should I help evaluate based on integration ease and documentation? Also, will the admin dashboard require real-time updates on booking and wallet activities, or are periodic refreshes acceptable? I’m ready to jump in, start planning milestones around your must-haves, and deliver a production-ready MVP on schedule.
