Case Study: HitPay streamlines product search and boosts speed with Meilisearch

HitPay speeds free-text search by 50% with Meilisearch

HitPay, a one-stop payment fintech platform for small and medium businesses in Southeast Asia, needed to integrate a reliable search function for its merchants' sizable product catalogs. As search was not their core offering, they sought a third-party solution that was easy to integrate and would allow them to maintain a lean engineering team. They chose to implement Meilisearch, beginning with its open-source version for validation.

The solution was implemented using Meilisearch Cloud, which provided a secure and reliable search API without the burden of infrastructure management for HitPay. The results included a search API response speed increase of at least 50% for free-text searches. Meilisearch is now integrated into two key HitPay products, providing powerful features like typo tolerance and amount searching, which directly enhance the sales experience for their merchants.
