Transforming Digital Giving With a Secure Laravel Platform

The Client

Muslim Charity, based in the UK, is a non-profit organisation dedicated to supporting humanitarian causes
through charitable initiatives. Operating at https://muslimcharity.org.uk/, they focus on providing
accessible donation options and fostering community engagement to deliver aid globally, requiring a secure
and scalable digital platform to support their mission.

The Challenge

The existing WordPress website suffered from numerous bugs, improper code structure, and database errors,
compromising security and performance. A malware investigation revealed code quality issues that hindered
maintainability and scalability. The client needed a redesigned website that retained WordPress familiarity
but addressed security vulnerabilities, supported one-time and recurring donations, enabled date-specific
purchases, included gift wrap functionality, and offered express and normal checkout options

The Solution

After a thorough malware investigation and code assessment, Dotsquares recommended transitioning from
WordPress to Laravel for its robust security and scalability. We developed a Laravel-based website with a
modern, user-friendly design to enhance user experience. Key features included secure one-time and recurring
donation systems, date selection for events or donations, gift wrap functionality for contributions, and
express and normal checkout options, all integrated with secure payment gateways. The organised code
structure improved maintainability, and rigorous testing ensured performance and security.

The Results

The Laravel-based platform delivered a secure, scalable, and user-friendly website for Muslim Charity. Secure
donation systems supported one-time and recurring contributions, while date selection and gift wrap features
enhanced engagement. Seamless checkout options improved user experience. The platform’s robust architecture
ensured performance and future growth, strengthening Muslim Charity’s mission.
