Project Context
Gecko Money is a Swiss B2B fintech platform that lets entrepreneurs manage all their corporate bank accounts in one place. The platform aggregates Firmenkredit (corporate loans) and Factoring offers from leading Swiss institutions — UBS, Pictet, Credit Suisse, Rocket Capital, AVV Factoring — alongside an integrated Transferwise transfer module and a bank messaging system.
"Manage your bank accounts with GeckoMoney."
The platform's core promise — intelligent technology that brings all corporate financing and banking into a single, simple dashboard — shaped every design decision, from the offer comparison tables to the credit repayment charts.
Scope: two products designed end-to-end. The web app platform — Dashboard (offer tables, credit charts, Transferwise transfers, messaging), Offers sub-pages (Firmenkredit, Factoring), Transfers, Settings — and a full marketing landing page featuring a hero, Intelligent Technology section, feature showcase ("Request an Offer"), app CTA, client testimonials, and a multi-device sign-up section.
Role and Responsibilities
As UX/UI Designer, I owned the full design process — from discovery and market research through information architecture, UI system design, prototyping, and final handoff to the development team.
Information Architecture
Structured the full platform and landing page from zero — defining the navigation model, user flows, and content hierarchy around the entrepreneur's financing journey.
Unified Design Components
Built a shared component library covering the web app platform and marketing landing page — data tables, charts, offer cards, and a consistent trust-building visual system.
Interaction & Flow Design
Designed the comparison flow, digital application, KYC verification, control dashboard, and all micro-interactions across the platform.
Landing Page & Dev Handoff
Designed the full conversion-focused marketing landing page and delivered annotated, developer-ready specs for both the web app and landing page.
Problem Definition
Long Waiting Times
SMEs requesting Firmenkredit or Factoring from banks like UBS or Credit Suisse faced weeks of waiting — scheduling appointments, chasing advisors, and receiving decisions long after the business window had closed.
Hours in Advisor Meetings
Just to understand what was available — Firmenkredit vs Factoring, UBS vs Pictet — required lengthy advisor sessions that cost entrepreneurs hours of irreplaceable time.
No Way to Compare Offers
Without a platform like Gecko Money, there was no transparent way to compare conditions and terms from UBS, Credit Suisse, Rocket Capital, and AVV Factoring side by side.
Fragmented Digital Experience
Kredit tracking, Transferwise transfers, and bank messages lived in six separate portals. Entrepreneurs had no single dashboard — leading to missed payments, forgotten offers, and lost communication threads.
Research & Personas
Research into the corporate financing journey in Switzerland and Germany revealed three core entrepreneur archetypes — each shaping a different set of design priorities.
Marco Berger
SME Owner · Zurich
"I need Firmenkredit to refinance equipment. I called UBS and Pictet separately — they each told me something different and I still have no idea which offer is better."
Core Goals
- Compare Firmenkredit offers in one place
- See offer terms & conditions clearly
- Apply without visiting a branch
Pain Points
- No transparent market overview
- Weeks waiting for bank callbacks
- No way to compare offers across institutions
Jana Fischer
Startup Founder · Berlin
"We use Factoring to manage cash flow but I'm doing it all by email. I want to see all my factoring offers digitally and track repayments in a dashboard."
Core Goals
- Digital Factoring offer comparison
- One dashboard for all financing
- Mobile-first application flow
Pain Points
- Entirely paper and email-based
- No repayment visualisation
- Can't see interest vs. principal split
Thomas Müller
Finance Director · Basel
"I manage a corporate credit line, Transferwise payments, and several factoring arrangements. I want one screen showing it all — status, conditions, and upcoming obligations."
Core Goals
- Unified view of all bank accounts
- Credit chart with clear repayment schedule
- Bank messaging in one inbox
Pain Points
- Six separate bank portals
- Manual repayment tracking in spreadsheets
- Transferwise completely disconnected

Key Design Decisions
Unified Control Dashboard
The central dashboard aggregates Firmenkredit offers, Factoring offers, Kredit UBS credit charts, Transferwise transfer history, and a bank messaging inbox — all visible at a glance without switching tools.
Offer Comparison Tables
Side-by-side comparison tables for Firmenkredit and Factoring products from UBS, Pictet, Credit Suisse, Rocket Capital, and AVV Factoring — displaying term, conditions, and a direct Details link per offer.
Credit Repayment Charts
Interactive interest/principal visualisation for each active credit line — showing the full repayment breakdown and schedule in a clear chart, making complex loan terms immediately understandable.
Transferwise Integration
A dedicated Transferwise transfer module showing date, account, and currency per transaction — bringing cross-border business payments directly into the corporate finance dashboard.
Bank Messaging System
Integrated messaging inbox connecting entrepreneurs directly with partner bank representatives — replacing scattered email threads with a structured, in-app communication channel.
Multi-Device Request Flow
The "Request an Offer" flow was designed to work seamlessly across desktop, tablet, and mobile — as showcased in the landing page device mockup section targeting Swiss and German SME owners.
Marketing Landing Page
The marketing landing page leads with "Manage your bank accounts with GeckoMoney" hero, followed by feature highlights, step-by-step offer request flows, client testimonials, and a conversion-focused multi-device CTA.
Light-First Visual System
The platform uses a clean white/light theme with a dark sidebar navigation and teal/cyan accent colour — projecting professionalism and trust for Swiss SME clients, reinforced by real partner bank logos (UBS, Pictet, Credit Suisse).
Final UI Design
A B2B corporate financing platform combining a powerful control dashboard, digital application flows, and a conversion-focused landing page — all designed for Swiss and German entrepreneurs.
Outcome / Impact
The Gecko Money design delivered a fully realised product: a light-themed web app dashboard aggregating Firmenkredit and Factoring offers from UBS, Pictet, Credit Suisse, Rocket Capital, and AVV Factoring — with credit repayment charts, Transferwise transfer management, and an integrated bank messaging system — all designed and handed off from scratch.
The companion marketing landing page presented the platform's Intelligent Technology value proposition across a full conversion funnel: hero, feature highlights, step-by-step offer request demo, app CTA, client testimonials, and a multi-device sign-up section targeting Swiss and German SMEs.
The platform targets a large market of SMEs in Switzerland and Germany — a corporate financing landscape where the vast majority of companies still rely on traditional, paper-heavy bank processes. The design was built to scale across both markets with a free-to-customer model backed by bank provision revenue.
