Introducing banking products: how to make a match

← Back to What I Do

The CHALLENGE

The Bank of America checking product overview page had been wanting some TLC for a while now. The page was not accessible, and was cumbersome.

Key work done

I lead the design team that reimagined the page soup to nuts. Client insights drove what points we wanted to have shine, and what to make discoverable with on-page interactions.

THE OUTCOME

See for yourself at bac.com/deposits

  • An introduction to our offering in the ways clients are seeking to compare their choices.

  • A page that is more dynamic, more modular, and digital-forward.

  • A way to convey the necessary more approachably


Where we started:

  • Cumbersome interaction architecture - If you’re coming to this page with a product in mind, you have to click to open a modal, to then select which of the three products you’re opening. With very similar names, it can be hard to remember which one you’d wanted.

  • Sectioned design layout - Each section has a clear stated focus, but each felt like it was pulled in from a different web site, collaged together.

  • Hidden value propositions - The key points that would help a user make a decision between checking products was hidden on the page. Tools, brand commitment, and benefits we know clients are seeking got lost on the page.


How it’s going now

  • Scan to snag attention - Consumers told us they want the exact type of product information, bank benefit, or tool they want to learn more about before making a product decision to “jump out at them”

  • Explore at your own pace - progressive disclosure is meaningfully peppered throughout. It’s clear when something will open on the page, and when something will take you on to a different journey on our site

  • Illustrations and imagery to reinforce the key (sometimes dry, sometimes lengthy) points being made
