Ozan
Alongside Ozan's internal team, we built a feature-rich payments platform including issuing of virtual & physical cards, checkout, account to account payments as well as bank top-ups & reporting.

Ozan is a digital banking app that allows users to make safe transactions in different currencies. Our team was engaged to create the processes and design of a mobile app as well as to upgrade, optimise, and develop new features for an existing application. Key highlights from the project include:
lines of code removed
increase in build speed
reduction in bundle size
As an extension of Ozan's internal team, we provided them with skilled resources and technical expertise to launch their web & mobile apps.
Throughout, we followed a solution-oriented approach, tackling issues one by one in a quick manner.
Through stakeholder and competitor research, we identified what features had to be put in place. Different combinations and flows were presented to the client. To make sure all features were feasible, technical architects were present throughout the project.
As a result of a GAP analysis, new tasks were added to the backlog for monitoring. Additional limitations, common user complaints and improvements the stakeholders wanted in place were identified for the mobile app concept.
User stories and personas were created and tested from both internal and external users. We used low-fidelity wireframes for testing until imperfections were ironed out and a high-fidelity prototype for card issuing was created. The client could choose from a few photorealistic options for physical cards.
We provided multiple ideas on how the platform could be improved, based on the feedback. A high-fidelity prototype was created with improved usability, new features, and a fresh look for the mobile app.
Before starting development on the card issuing process, technical discussions determined what could be split into small blocks and reused. This led to faster delivery and a more maintainable codebase.
We reduced complexity by removing repetition and thousands of lines of code on the platform. Maintainability was optimised by adding type support, splitting up features and using Redux across the board. A lot of upgrades were free as they were delivered alongside features or bug fixes.
Code reviews and automation were used to improve quality. Unit tests were not built as resources were short. However, a QA team constantly monitored and built E2E tests for the project.
Card issuing was delivered on time. The experience both on the web and mobile app were consistent and inline with branding guidelines.
Thousands of lines of code and styles were removed, while new features were delivered. Onboarding of new developers on this project was significantly easier.
Maintenance costs were significantly reduced following platform optimisations. One of the biggest wins was removing a redundant application.
The mobile app concept was delivered in 10 working days with new features including multiple bank accounts and multiple cards for the same account, shared & business accounts, transfers to alternative platforms, services and subscription payments.
