The Challenge

thinkmoney needed consultant support within a 3-month deadline to rebuild their low-code mobile banking app serving 150,000 monthly users, improving functionality and user experience. They also needed to migrate data and modernize backend budgeting services for real-time financial visibility.

Our Approach

The team employed a minimum viable product “walking-skeleton” prototype for early validation, combined with an event-driven backend architecture enabling real-time budgeting with sub-2-second processing.

Key Elements

  • React Native for cross-platform mobile development (iOS & Android)
  • Event-driven architecture design for real-time data
  • Security implementation including SSL pinning and jailbreak detection
  • Accessibility standards compliance
  • Knowledge-sharing through paired programming and CI/CD automation

Results

  • Met critical three-month deadline
  • App rating improved from 2.1 to 4.5 (App Store) and 4.7 (Google Play)
  • Net Promoter Score: +40 (vs. industry average +32)
  • Customer satisfaction: 83% (2% above industry average)
  • Smart budgeting satisfaction: 87%
