About the business
This under NDA client offers the world’s first broker-less financial trading platform, allowing its users to trade directly against the financial markets. While the idea appeared very well-received, the first execution failed to meet user expectations. The platform had issues with usability, so our team was requested to make the platform and website more appealing, intuitive, and user-friendly.

Based on the research findings, we have identified a set of must-have features and elements the redesigned platform was to provide to realize its full potential.

Day / Night mode
Information architecture was built so that the Trading platform would provide easily recognizable, relevant educational materials.

Brand-Specific Visual Identity
The visual system was developed to allow for future scaling.
Buttons, drop-downs, tooltips, input fields, links, headers, and other design components were presented in the UI kit and designed so that their look would change following user actions: hover, selection, and click.

A unique, responsive, feature-rich, and easy-to-use web-based trading platform.
A platform with all the essential trading tools and parameters required for a safe and fraud-free trading experience, easily accessible to the masses.
A highly visual, simple, and interactive user interface that educates its users from their very first trade.
