GDPR-Compliant, Affordable App Development for UK Businesses

It comes down to how the app handles personal data end to end: a lawful basis for what you collect, clear consent where required, data minimisation on forms, and working flows for users to export or delete their data (subject access and erasure requests). We build all of that in from the start and add UK/EU data residency where a project needs it, following ICO guidance — so the app is defensible rather than patched after a complaint.

A focused consumer app MVP typically runs £15,000–£35,000 with us, versus considerably more at a London agency for the same scope. More complex apps — custom backend, multiple roles, chat or video — run £35,000–£80,000. Building offshore in React Native is what keeps it affordable, and you get a fixed scope and breakdown before work begins.

It is when you pick the right team — so judge us on specifics. Ask to see shipped apps, review the code, and check that GDPR flows (consent, SAR, deletion) are genuinely implemented, not claimed. We build with UK data-protection expectations as a default, keep code in your own repository, and start with a small milestone so quality is proven before you commit further.

Yes. Stripe with UK accounts and SCA compliance, GoCardless for direct debit, and Open Banking via TrueLayer or Plaid for account verification and payment flows are all stacks we've built on. We handle the security and reconciliation details, not just the surface integration.

Our hours give a full UK business-day overlap, so standups and demos happen live rather than overnight. You own everything — code in your own repository from day one, listings on your Apple and Google accounts, and IP assigned to you on delivery. Most UK clients move onto a maintenance retainer after launch to stay current with OS updates.
