Research

Online banking experience redesign through research into some of the real life banking “pains” that people experience.

Goal with every client is to create a standout experience and assist in making the best product on the market. We studied and analyzed competitors to innovate and revolutionize, resulting in an interface and user experience that’s one-of-a-kind.

  • Navigation problems with double hamburger menu (top left and right)
  • Invasive commercial pushes through banners and popups with low conversion
  • Lack of visual hierarchy affects the level of focus
  • Big learning curve for new and existing users
  • Poor accessibility for disabled users

Challenges & Learning

Unfortunately, one of our main challenges is the lack of resources and time that we have day to day, we’re stretched quite thin! With this challenge, we often have to reiterate our designs in order to be achievable within time and technical constraints, while still providing more value to our users.


As part of learning, with any project, there were some things that worked well and others that didn't.

One of my biggest learnings from this project was that how well a team works together really makes or breaks a project.
