Ubuntu Design Framework

In product design, tapping into the power of community plays a vital role. In practice, we utilize the collective knowledge and expertise of the business to develop and refine our digital products. However, in instances when time constraints hinder thorough research and discovery, we must depend on the experiences of our stakeholders to make informed assumptions.

We must consider the needs of the parents and put ourselves in the children’s shoes to make banking as easy, fun, and yet helpful as possible for the little ones. In other words: we make banking childly but not childish.
