Introducing PlutoPay: Your All-in-One Banking Companion! PlutoPay is the ultimate banking and wallet app designed to put you in control of your financial journey. Developed as part of a UX Bootcamp with Career Foundry, I led this project as the sole designer, with invaluable feedback from friends, peers, and mentors. PlutoPay empowers users by partnering with banks to uncover hidden fees and expose dark patterns, ensuring a transparent and seamless banking experience.
The financial landscape is often cluttered with hidden fees and dark patterns that can catch users off guard. Traditional banking apps may lack transparency, making it difficult for users to fully understand their financial transactions and avoid unexpected charges. Additionally, managing expenses, setting budgets, and handling peer-to-peer transactions can be cumbersome and inefficient with existing solutions. PlutoPay aims to address these pain points by offering a user-centric, transparent, and intuitive banking experience.
PlutoPay tackles these issues head-on by partnering with banks to uncover hidden fees and expose deceptive practices, ensuring users stay informed and in control. The app features robust spending analytics, advanced budgeting tools, and seamless peer-to-peer transactions to help users manage their finances effortlessly. Through a comprehensive design process—empathize, define, ideate, prototype, test, and implement—I developed a user-friendly interface that minimizes complexity and maximizes functionality. The result is a powerful, all-in-one banking companion that empowers users to make smart financial decisions and achieve their financial goals.
