Scope of Work

The founders of NeoBank spent more than a year looking for an agency that would help them with design and development. They understood that they were too busy with other projects and would not be able to devote much time to NeoBank. They needed a team that would also be inspired by their idea and work on it independently enough.

Brief filling

First of all, we asked NeoBank to fill out a brief. In it, the founders write in detail about their vision of the future product, its main competitors, its mission and values, and also provided examples of services that inspired them.

Project Scoping

We also realized that there is a very large scope of work ahead. We had to develop the product from scratch. Therefore, we started with clear planning, structuring of tasks, and estimation by time.

Product Design

The main advantage of NeoBank is the emphasis on outstanding user experience. In order to achieve the best deliverables, we had to find out all the needs of the target audience to provide the best product solutions.

Back-end & Front-end Development

The platform had to quickly process a large amount of data, deliver a variety of financial features and allow users to easily access any necessary information.

Native Mobile Development

Since NeoBank wanted to offer its users the most convenient fintech solutions, its founders immediately decided to start with an application.

Ideation & Evaluation

NeoBank came up with an idea to improve fintech apps.  To do this, we had to collect information about financial institutions, find their pros and cons, and offer users truly innovative ways to solve their problems.

We started with a big meeting where our team was able to learn more about the project and ask all their questions.

UX Research

Now it was the UX design team’s turn. It was necessary to research market competitors and user needs. We not only conducted several custom interviews but also read hundreds of reviews and forum pages on the experience of using a banking app or gaining financial knowledge in general. We were defining the target audience of fintech companies and analyzing competitors.

We started with a big meeting where our team was able to learn more about the project and ask all their questions.

User flow

Firstly, we created a user flow map. It is a necessary step in the UX Design phase. We wanted to make sure that customer needs will be covered by the functionality of the product.The next steps were wireframing and UI design. We are also big fans of Pixel Perfect Design, so our UI elements fit perfectly into Wireframes. At this stage, it was time for one more meeting with the Client to approve the way customers use different features on the platform.

Wireframes

One more UX design stage — creating an application prototype on paper and then in Figma. At this stage, we arranged all the necessary elements in the interface and discussed the Wireframes with the Client.

Final version

After the approval, we received one visual style with which we continued to work. At this stage, the Client already understands exactly what the app will look like in the future. We chose bland color palettes of blue colors on a white background to create a clean and fresh look.

UI Design

Fintech apps give access to a very large amount of information. And such a wide range of numbers can be confusing. So our main task was to create a simple and intuitive interface that makes life easier but does not create even more questions.

This step is necessary so that when developing, we do not think about whether something should be added. We will already have a finished UI/UX design, which we will follow.

Project planning & Zero sprint

After the design was completed, we took time for new planning in the development team. Developers also needed to discuss the technical requirements for the project and choose technological solutions.

Web & Mobile Development

Our team recommended using React.js on the front end, Node.js on the backend, and Swift to build the app. The development was based on 2-week sprints to ensure the right level of flexibility, maximum value, and a constant feedback loop.

Final QA / Testing

Each stage of development is tested, so we are confident in the quality of the delivered product. After we finish working on it, we also do Final QA to make sure it's perfect.

Feature #1
Investing
One of the key features of NeoBank is investing. Users can check their investment portfolio, strategy, and assets at any moment. Our user experience designers during their research found that the potential audience of the app was interested in financial language and opportunities for easy investment.

Feature #2
Transfer
The modern banking app is all about accessing various features in a few simple moves. Our user experience designers researched to learn more about the role of such an app in users' lives. We understood which features are of paramount importance and which can be hidden in the menu.Users can now access their bank cards, make a transfer or make a payment wherever they are at a time convenient to them. They also has several options for making a transfer. For example, he can simply find the contact in the general list. Just what a lot of users were talking about while customer interviews on the stage of UX Design.
Feature #3

Feature #4
Home Navigation
Financial information needs to be structured well. Therefore, we have minimized the number of UI elements in the app to make users feel more confident. Here are some screens with money transferring flow in this app.
At the same time fintech UX should navigate customers easily in financial terms and other important issues. Users should stay informed about their banking conditions and their data should be secured.
Our UX designers made excellent competitors research to find all pros and cons of delivering information about customers' money flow in different ways. This was one task we focused on first. We used the best solutions from the niche and brought unique NeoBank ideas.
