Merge - FinTech Mobile Application - Startup

I was hired on to join Merge - a FinTech startup - for a 6 month contract.

What it does

A fintech app that combines your multiple credit cards into one ‘Merge’ card.

How we built it

I designed my screens with Figma.

Challenges we ran into

The main feedback were received was that our screens were too difficult to read. We reiterated on our designs with accessibility in mind. Another comment we received was that users could not see the time while using the app, so we implemented the ability to see the clock while in-app - amongst various other improvements.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

This product design began with our goal: to design sign up/sign pages that are convenient to use and we delivered a fully functional MVP ahead of budget, saving the company from spending additional investment funds. We had discoveries every day during this project. Some discoveries allowed us to enhance our app, while others presented challenges to our initial designs. The launch of the MVP to Merge was a success, and our stakeholders were excited about the solution. The amount of users who joined our waitlist increased by 20%. Our designs laid the groundwork for Merge’s evolving platform. The design system and framework gave the team the tools they needed to continue building features to integrate into the next version.

What we learned

I learned how to collaborate with multiple designers across various time zones, languages, and how to truly work in an Agile environment.

What's next for Merge

They are currently finishing up Series A funding and seeking more investors.
