Mobile App Development Company in Dublin

Regulatory alignment is the step function on a Dublin app budget, not screen count. Quotes exclude 23% Irish VAT where applicable. A scoped mobile MVP is a twelve to twenty week engagement covering native iOS and Android with a shared backend, Stripe payments integration where applicable, and the GDPR documentation an Irish DPC inquiry could require. A full production fintech mobile app adds Central Bank of Ireland authorisation alignment, PSD2 SCA flows, Stripe Connect or Issuing integration, and AML and KYC integration. Enterprise mobile rollouts add Okta, Azure AD, deep SSO, and full DPC-grade GDPR documentation. Ireland's 25% R&D Tax Credit and 12.5% corporation tax materially improve the net economics on qualifying engineering; we model the offset in proposals. Quotes exclude 23% Irish VAT where applicable.

Ireland's headline corporation tax rate is 12.5% on trading income, with the 15% Pillar Two minimum applying to in-scope multinationals (groups above the EUR 750M revenue threshold) under the OECD Inclusive Framework. The R&D Tax Credit, administered by Revenue, returns 25% on qualifying R&D expenditure (raised from 25% in recent finance acts), payable in cash instalments over three years for loss-making companies. The Knowledge Development Box (KDB) provides a 6.25% effective corporation tax rate on income derived from qualifying assets including patented inventions and copyrighted software. Mobile R&D producing qualifying software IP can stack 25% R&D credit on the development phase with KDB 6.25% on the resulting income, the most generous IP-friendly tax stack in the EU. Codazz delivers time-tracked engineer logs, eligible-activity narratives, and Revenue-ready documentation. Final eligibility sits with Revenue.

Yes. Stripe's EU headquarters is in Dublin and the Stripe iOS and Android SDKs are engineered at a reference standard that defines the EU mobile payments engineering bar. Codazz integrates Stripe Mobile SDKs for in-app payments using the Payment Sheet and Payment Element, Stripe Connect for marketplace flows (including Express and Custom accounts with mobile-first onboarding), Stripe Issuing for card programmes with mobile push provisioning to Apple Pay and Google Pay, and Stripe Identity for mobile KYC. PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication (3DS2) flows are integrated with proper exemption handling. We have patterned implementations on Stripe's published Dublin engineering reference docs and mobile sample apps.

The Irish Data Protection Commission (DPC) is the lead supervisory authority for many Big Tech companies under the GDPR one-stop-shop mechanism, given the EU headquarters of Meta, Google, Apple, Microsoft, TikTok, X, and others are in Ireland. The DPC is consequently the most-cited data protection authority in the EU and globally. Codazz designs mobile apps under GDPR plus the Irish Data Protection Act 2018, with Article 6 lawful basis documented per processing activity, Article 9 special category data treated with explicit consent or another Article 9 basis, Article 28 processor terms in place with all vendors, Article 30 records of processing maintained, and a Data Protection Impact Assessment (DPIA) for high-risk processing. App Store Privacy Nutrition Labels and Google Play Data Safety forms align with DPC published guidance, not generic templates.

Yes. Where the mobile app provides regulated activity (payment services under PSD2, electronic money under EMD2, investment services under MiFID II, consumer credit under the Consumer Credit Act, or insurance distribution under IDD), Central Bank of Ireland authorisation is required and the technical architecture must align with the supervisory expectations published by the Central Bank. Codazz delivers Stripe Connect, Stripe Issuing, or Adyen integration for payment services, full PSD2 Strong Customer Authentication and Open Banking PSD2 RTS compliance, AML and KYC integration with Sumsub, Onfido, or Trulioo aligned with the Criminal Justice (Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing) Act, and the technical documentation a Central Bank authorisation application file requires. Final authorisation sits with the Central Bank of Ireland.

Yes. Intercom was founded in Dublin and the Intercom Messenger SDK is a Dublin engineering reference standard for in-app messaging, support, and product tours. Codazz integrates Intercom Messenger SDK for iOS and Android with full identity verification, custom events, push notification deep links, and the GDPR consent posture the DPC expects. We also routinely integrate Workhuman recognition APIs, Tines no-code security automation hooks for in-app threat response, and Fenergo client lifecycle management APIs for enterprise mobile onboarding. The Dublin engineering ecosystem ships first-class SDKs, and our integration practice patterns on them rather than reinventing parallel implementations.

A scoped mobile MVP with Stripe payments, basic GDPR posture, and App Store and Google Play submission typically takes twelve to twenty weeks from kickoff to launch. A full production fintech mobile app with Central Bank of Ireland authorisation alignment, PSD2 SCA flows, Stripe Connect or Issuing integration, AML and KYC integration, and full DPC-grade GDPR documentation runs twenty-eight to forty-six weeks from kickoff to EU App Store launch. Central Bank authorisation, where required, runs on its own clock (typically nine to eighteen months with the Central Bank from a complete application file) and should be locked into the master schedule from kickoff, not treated as a post-launch task. Apple App Review and Google Play approval typically add two to four weeks at the end.

Yes. The European Accessibility Act (Directive 2019/882) takes effect for in-scope products and services from 28 June 2025, including e-commerce, consumer banking, e-books, and electronic communications services that target EU consumers. Mobile apps inside scope must meet the accessibility requirements of the harmonised standard (EN 301 549, which incorporates WCAG 2.1 AA and effectively WCAG 2.2 AA on web-facing components). Codazz builds to WCAG 2.2 AA on iOS (VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, increased contrast, reduce motion, switch control), Android (TalkBack, font scaling, high contrast text), and React Native and Flutter equivalents. We produce the accessibility statement EU enforcement expects and the technical documentation an EAA inquiry would require.
