Kasamba Psychic Readings Chat

Native mobile app work for Kasamba's real-time advisor marketplace.

iGates developed native iOS and Android application capabilities for Kasamba's advisor marketplace, combining real-time chat, VoIP, push notifications, and marketplace-aware mobile UX.

Project name:Kasamba Inc. - Psychic Readings Chat Kasamba mobile marketplace app
Years:2012-2016

Overview

Project context:

Kasamba is a live psychic-readings marketplace with mobile apps for iOS and Android. Public app listings describe a consumer experience built around advisor discovery, chat, guidance, and mobile notifications.

iGates scope:

According to the iGates CMS source-of-truth, iGates built native mobile application capabilities for Kasamba between 2012 and 2016, including real-time chat, voice communication, push notifications, and advisor/user interaction flows.

Engineering challenge:

The product had to make a complex global marketplace feel immediate on mobile: advisor availability, secure user sessions, real-time text, VoIP, notification timing, and a simple conversation UX all had to work together.

Platform Capabilities

Real-time advisor communication:

The mobile app supported immediate user-advisor communication with chat, voice interaction, push notifications, and low-latency session handling.

Native iOS and Android delivery:

The project required native mobile implementation rather than a thin wrapper, so the communication experience could feel reliable and familiar on each platform.

Marketplace-aware UX:

The app had to help users find advisors, begin a session, return to active conversations, and receive availability updates without adding friction to the paid-session flow.

Secure mobile account flows:

The implementation handled personal communication and payment-adjacent journeys, so the product needed careful mobile security, session, and notification behavior.

The iGates contribution

iGates helped turn a web-centered advisor marketplace into a mobile communication product where chat, voice, push notifications, and advisor discovery could work together in a native app experience.
