/ The Challenge
Traditional banking apps make card management an afterthought. Features like freezing a card, setting limits, or generating virtual cards are often buried under layers of settings. Users struggle with unnecessary friction, leading to frustration and lack of confidence in their financial tools.
/ our approach
Designing for Simplicity and Control
Traditional banking apps often bury essential card controls in deep settings menus, making simple tasks unnecessarily difficult. We reimagined the card management experience by prioritizing visibility and ease of use. Our approach placed real-time controls at users’ fingertips, ensuring they could manage their cards with confidence and clarity
VERSION 1 / 2020-'21 / The Solution
A Future-Ready Card Management Experience
A reimagined card management experience that empowers users with greater control, security, and convenience, ensuring that managing cards is as seamless as making a transaction.
Instant control: Freeze, unfreeze, and set spending limits in seconds.
Security-first design: Biometric authentication and real-time notifications.
Seamless virtual cards: Generate, activate, and manage digital cards on demand.
Intuitive UI: A clear, simple interface that eliminates friction and guesswork.
VERSION 2 / 2020-'21 / the revamp
Elevating the member Experience
To further enhance usability and visual appeal, we transitioned to the NeoPop design system. This bold, futuristic aesthetic brought greater clarity and hierarchy to the interface, improving accessibility and engagement. With striking color contrasts, fluid animations, and simplified iconography, NeoPop helped create a more immersive and intuitive banking experience.

Refining Through Real-World Insights
A key part of our process was gathering feedback from real users. Through multiple rounds of testing, we identified pain points and iterated on the design to maximize clarity and efficiency.
Beyond aesthetics, we optimized the system for high performance and scalability. Our architecture ensures seamless handling of real-time updates, transaction loads, and future feature expansions.
