01 - INTRODUCTION
Building a business banking product from the ground up.
ACE Business Account is a digital financial product built for business owners and single-director companies in the UK.
I worked across the product from its early wireframes through high-fidelity UI, interactive prototypes, responsive web experiences, feature evolution, and end-to-end testing — continuously refining the product as requirements, capabilities, and partner integrations evolved.
02 - APPROACH
How I
approached the design.
01
DOMAIN FIRST, PIXELS SECOND
Before designing screens, I mapped how each feature worked and studied competitor products to understand common design patterns, user expectations, and areas for improvement.
02
FLOWS BEFORE SCREENS
Every feature started with wireframes in Figma, then high-fidelity UI and an interactive prototype. This helped keep edge cases — errors, empty states, pending transactions — visible early instead of being discovered in testing.
03
EVOLVE, DON'T PATCH
As product requirements matured, I redesigned experiences such as Cross Border, Tap to Pay and Cards rather than layering changes on top. I also redesigned the Business Account dashboard and refined flows, including Pay Money and Payment Scheduler.
04
DESIGN IS NOT DONE AT HANDOFF
I stayed involved beyond the design handoff through UI validation, functional, responsive, and regression testing. I documented bugs, validated fixes, and retested the experience to ensure the final product matched the design and worked as expected.
03 — MY ROLE

My contribution spanned both product design and quality validation, covering the experience from design through to testing.

THE PRODUCT CONTINUED TO GROW WITH NEW CAPABILITIES
New features were designed as partner integrations became available, while existing experiences were refined and revamped.
04
DESIGN WAS CARRIED THROUGH TO RELEASE
