About the Project

FinUp helps individuals and companies manage online spend through unlimited virtual cards funded with fiat and crypto. The product brings card issuing, digital money management, and spend tracking into one experience.

The company had a working product and an established presence in its home market. The next step was to present FinUp as a fintech ready to compete beyond that market.

CHALLENGE

FinUp needed its brand to catch up with the business

We worked across the parts of the experience that shape how a new customer encounters FinUp: the visual identity, payment cards, product interface, and website.

The existing design language gave us a starting point, without discarding anything. We kept the elements that could carry recognition forward, then introduced a stronger visual system around them. The same logic carried through the cards and digital experience, so the product did not feel like a collection of separate touchpoints.

For the website, the priority was product clarity. Instead of leading with a list of features, we used the interface and visual content to show what customers can actually do with FinUp — issue cards, manage digital money, and track spending across fiat and crypto.

That gave the brand and website the same job: make the product easier to understand and position FinUp more strongly as it moves into new markets.

PROJECT RESULTS

A stronger foundation for FinUp's next market

FinUp left the project with a renewed brand identity, a payment card system, and a website that presents the product with more clarity and a stronger visual point of view. The work brought the main customer-facing touchpoints into one system: the brand establishes the identity, the cards carry it into the physical experience, and the website explains the product and its use cases.

AWARDS & RECOGNITION

Recognized across the industry

The website also received nominations across Best UI, Best UX, and Best Innovation at the CSSDA. For a fintech moving beyond its original market, that combination matters. The company needs a brand people can recognize, a product they can understand, and a digital presence that gives the two a consistent place to meet.

Multiple floating circular badges on a blue to black gradient background, featuring phrases like 'BEST UI DESIGN,' 'BEST INNOVATION AWARDED,' and 'BEST UX DESIGN,' all with the CSSDA logo in the center.
Three stylized certificate cards in red, blue, and green, each labeled FINUP with a date of 26 August 2025; awarded to Goodface, featuring abstract white typography and the CSSDA logo.
WHAT WE'D DO DIFFERENTLY

Define the boundary between evolution and reinvention earlier

Projects that evolve an existing brand carry a particular tension. The team has to protect what already works while creating enough change for the new direction to be visible.

For FinUp, that meant spending time deciding which parts of the existing system still represented the company and which no longer matched where it wanted to go.

On a similar project, we'd formalize those decisions earlier. A clear keep/change framework at the start would give the creative process a tighter boundary and reduce the number of decisions that need to be revisited later.

WHAT EARLY-STAGE FINTECH TEAMS CAN LEARN

Your brand has to explain where the business is going

A FinTech entering new markets is asking customers to trust a company they may not know yet. The product has to do the real work, but the brand and website shape the first judgment about whether that product belongs in the market at all.

That makes consistency more important than visual novelty. The identity, product interface, payment cards, and website should reinforce the same position and make the business easier to understand from the first interaction.

So before redesigning the brand, ask a more useful question: what does the current experience tell a new market about the company you are becoming?

If the answer still describes the old business, the work is bigger than a new logo. The brand, product, and website need to move in the same direction.
