Project Summary

Ackee developed native iOS and Android apps for Zonky, a peer-to-peer loan platform, creating an application with over 250 screens that supports multiple investment options and loan overviews. The vendor produced interactive prototypes to validate flows like investing and onboarding, collaborated closely onsite with the client’s internal team, and helped launch the first part of the app two months after kickoff while continuing post-launch monitoring.

Key Challenges

Need to extend the desktop Zonky service with mobile apps to enable lending and investing on mobile devices.
Complex onboarding requiring collection of significant personal data, including ID uploads.
Goals to increase daily and monthly active usage and improve user experience for investors and borrowers.

Quality of Deliverables

“Ackee collaborated well with the internal team, working alongside them on site. They were quick without sacrificing quality, which allowed them to launch the app a mere two months after kick-off. They continued to monitor the app after it went live.”
