Final Year Project
Project Title
Konnect by HBL (Research Report & Mobile Application)
Description
In collaboration with Habib Bank Limited, our research aims to investigate user preferences and usability aspects for branchless banking services. Our research focused on both current users of Konnect by HBL who are aware of this service, as well as a large group of people who are not aware of Konnect, along with competitors that have been successful in offering their customers a seamless user experience journey. Our research methodology ranged from creating audits of existing FinTech applications to conducting focus groups, interviews, and surveys with existing users. Through our findings, we were able to create a target market for our application and design the interface, ensuring that the user journey was short and seamless in the updated version. The final prototype of the application was made on Figma.
