vdk bank: Simplicity meets functionality
When vdk bank partnered with us to redesign their banking app, the goal was clear: create an intuitive and user-friendly experience that could rivalthe biggest players in the industry. The app needed a modern, minimalist design that was still packed with features. The result? A seamless banking experience across both mobile and desktop.
From solid foundation to happy customers
The previous app had a strong foundation but needed an upgrade to meet the demands of today’s users. By combining sleek design with robust functionality, we helped vdk bank achieve the perfect balance. And it’s paying off—just look at the results from the Bank Awards 2024, where vdk bank earned stellar reviews.
How we made it happen
Do you want a single-function app or one that combines multiple features? The choice is yours, and we will make it happen! Here are some ideas
Comprehensive UX Audit
We started with an in-depth UX audit to lay the groundwork:
Mapping out all existing functionalities in the previous app.
Identifying areas where navigation and user experience could be improved.
Proposing a new, intuitive navigation structure that makes the app feel effortless to use
Wireframes: A Clearer Path Forward
We developed detailed wireframes for the entire app. Each feature, flow, and screen was designed with purpose and precision. Throughout the process, we collaborated closely with the vdk bank team to ensure the designs met their needs and goals.
A Cohesive Design System
To ensure a polished and consistent user experience, we created a robust design system:
A refreshed color palette aligned with vdk bank’s brand identity.
Typography that’s modern and highly readable.
A custom icon set and reusable components to streamline both design and development.
Over the past three years, they have been dedicated to enhancing the look and feel of our app. Our goal has always been, and continues to be, to create a straightforward and accessible banking app for all our customers, whether they are digitally savvy or less experienced. We look forward to continuing our partnership with everyone at Who Owns The Zebra.
