MAD

We worked hand in hand with Sparkasse’s UX team for over a year, diving deep into the unique needs of business banking customers. From extensive user research to ideation and prototyping, we tested, refined, and ultimately shipped a new platform that empowers businesses with an intuitive, modern, and secure online banking experience. Our collaborative approach ensured that the final product not only met but exceeded expectations, setting the foundation for Sparkasse’s continued leadership in the digital banking space.
