FOCUS AREA
Challenge, approach, and impact
Catering to Young Users
Designing a financial product that appeals to and educates children was a challenge. Traditional banking tools are rarely designed with young users in mind, so creating an engaging, fun, and yet educational platform required careful ideation and user-centered design.
Limited In-House IT Development Capacity
365.bank had the vision for a children's financial literacy app but lacked the in-house capacity for such a large-scale IT development project. Collaborating with an external partner was necessary to turn their vision into reality.
