About the project

Aurorium Gifts is a marketplace for collectible Telegram gifts that runs as a mini app inside the messenger. Users buy and sell gifts for TON, make offers, take part in auctions and follow market activity. We designed the app interface in a dark theme with purple accents.

The challenge

Collectible gifts are both digital items and tradable assets. Users need to quickly find a gift from the right collection and model, understand its price, list their own gift for sale and never lose sight of their wallet balance. And all of this has to fit into a Telegram mini app with its system header and "Close" button.

Market

Every screen has the TON balance pinned at the top, with top-up and withdrawal buttons and a "Wallet" button. The main "Market" section is split into "Gifts" and "Auction" tabs. Collection and model filters sit in a separate row, next to a reset button and extra parameters. Gifts are shown as a grid of cards: image, name, item number and price. Selected gifts can be collected in a cart — a badge in the corner shows their count and total amount.

Gift page

The gift page gives most of the space to the image, set against the collection's pattern background. Below it are the name and ID and two main buttons: buy at the current price and "Offer" for users who want to propose their own price. Further down are additional actions: open in Telegram, send as a gift, set the gift as an emoji status, add to cart and share. An expandable table lists the gift's attributes, such as the background and its rarity.

My gifts and activity

The "My gifts" section has three tabs — "Gifts", "Offers" and "History". Gifts are split into listed and unlisted, and above the list there are four actions: add, withdraw, sell and send. If the user has no gifts yet, the screen doesn't stay empty: a hint at the bottom explains that Telegram gifts can be added via the bot.

The "Activity" section shows a feed of trades across the whole market, with a switch between all gifts and collections. A three-column table lists the gift, the price with date and the trade type: sale or bid. It makes it easy to track what gifts from a given collection actually sell for.

Result

We designed a marketplace for Telegram gifts where users can search for gifts by collection and model, buy them or make offers, manage their collection and follow market trades — without leaving the messenger and always seeing their balance.
