Platform Architectuure

Makerble is a cloud-based software-as-a-service platform which you can access from any device with a web browser and internet connection, anywhere in the world. This means that you no longer need to worry about installing software onto your computers. We can give you offline capability in the form of our Android application which works on tablets and mobile devices.

Hassle-free transaction processing

  • We use Stripe to manage payments and donations on Makerble. It is a powerful online payments platform with backing from PayPal.

  • Stripe's tools mean that as soon as a donation to a project happens on Makerble, the donation is transferred to your organisation's Stripe account and automatically deposited in your bank account a few days later.

Business Continuity

  • We can activate an escrow service on your account which means that in the event that Makerble is no longer able to support or provide its software-as-a-service, our escrow provider will continue to provide the service.

  • The default arrangement is a one year provision of service so that you can continue with business as usual while you decide whether to use the Makerble source code to continue running the software yourself or switch to another provider.
