Challenge

The gobar team came to us with a vision: creators were collecting money through fragmented tools like bio-link donations, separate streaming widgets, and traditional payment rails that introduced delays and high fees. They wanted to build a platform where a specific creator goal becomes the center of fan interaction, with real-time progress updates, full transparency, and clear motivation to push "just a little more until the goal is reached." The existing funding solutions lacked the immediacy and transparency that modern creator-fan relationships demand. Traditional payment systems broke the emotional connection between supporting a creator and seeing the immediate impact of that support.

Opportunity

The gobar founders saw an opportunity to merge Web2 ease of use with Web3 transparency: familiar donation scenarios powered by Solana stablecoins and on-chain settlement. They envisioned "goal-bar" — a platform where the progress bar itself becomes the main visual metaphor for collective momentum. We developed the complete identity system centered around the dynamic progress bar: dark UI, accent green as "support energy," and micro-animations that drive action. The visual language communicates momentum, progress, and collective achievement. We architected the platform to route 99% of funds directly to creators with a 1% platform fee, scalable to 3-4% for sustainable monetization without degrading UX. We implemented real-time WebSocket channels for live progress updates and leaderboards, and built the full-stack application with Solana on-chain integration for instant, transparent payouts.

Outcome

We delivered a complete Web3 funding platform where fans see their contribution "painting" the progress bar in real-time, and creators receive instant on-chain payouts. The platform includes goal management, sharing tools, Explore feeds, leaderboards, and a scalable architecture ready for ecosystem partnerships. gobar now provides creators with a tool to set specific, transparent goals and rally their community around them with unprecedented immediacy and clarity. The platform is live, processing real payments, and built to scale.

Pragmica helped us shape gobar into something people could immediately trust. The challenge was making a Web3-powered product feel clear and human, without overwhelming creators or their audiences with technology. They built a brand and platform that feel straightforward, transparent, and motivating. For a product that handles money and creators' livelihoods, getting this balance right was critical. Pragmica delivered a system that feels solid, modern, and genuinely creator-first.
