Loop Money @Foolproof

Loop Money operates in a competitive fintech landscape where users expect seamless digital transactions and strong brand engagement. However, its interface lacked clarity and ease of use, leading to friction in money-sharing interactions. The project required a fast turnaround to meet product roadmaps, balancing innovation with technical feasibility.

"Fantastic work [...] loved every moment of the interaction and the intense week with you.
We are now confident the new design will be a significant step forward, thank you!"

Discovery

Usability & flow analysis of the Fintech landscape

 Our process began with a thorough review of Loop Money’s user experience. We identified several key usability issues in the app’s flow, which had an impact on its user satisfaction. The user journeys were not as intuitive as they could be, and many screens had accessibility problems that could alienate users.

Complex User Journeys

Navigation wasn’t as intuitive as it could be, making money-sharing interactions cumbersome.

Accessibility Gaps

Several accessibility issues affected readability. Issues with colour contrast, typography, and readability hindered inclusivity.

Lack of Visual Hierarchy

Financial information wasn’t clearly structured, making it harder for users to trust and engage with the app.

Branding Assessment

The initial scope didn’t include a full branding refresh, but during discovery, we identified accessibility issues with colours and typography affecting readability. Leveraging our strong client relationship, we expanded the project to create a bold, modern, and accessible brand for Loop Money, enhancing usability and ensuring the app is connected with its core audience.
