From the research carried our, I discovered a problem

From the research carried our, I discovered a problem

There was a lot of fragmentation, no unifying web experience that truly represents the banks upward growth for it’s visitors. Customers were no longer enjoying the web experience. The bank wanted to introduce freshness into it’s online experience. From user test carried out we found out 4 major limiting factors.

Slow speed: 16.2 sec Best-in-class webpages should become interactive within 5.3 seconds. Visitors always abandon slow site, reducing conversions and sales. 

Mobile responsiveness: 20/30 The current website is not fully responsive. Visitors might find it difficult to locate key actions. 

Security: 5/10 The website is HTTP secured, which gives visitors confidence about safety. However, JavaScript libraries are not secured. Intruders can exploit outdated JavaScript libraries. 

Poor UI/UX: 5/10 The interface is currently outdated, as Fidelity Bank’s product offerings grow a lot of content and interaction becomes obsolete.

The Results

We developed a fully responsive website design that has not only gone to solve the problem of fragmentation but created a unique experience for users.

Quality Assurance was done to ensure a consistent approach across the over 100 pages on all device and browser. Using BrowserStack, we emulated the site on real devices. Knowing that our users were 73% in Chrome, 12% in Safari, 9% in Firefox, 4% in IE, and 1% in Edge, we prioritized fixes according to audience size and criticality.

After a successful launch the entire team was on standby to give support all round the year, we maintained the site structure, design and codes.
