FirstBank CHALLENGE

BRAND WEEK

FirstBank struggles to attract young customers, who often stay with their parents' banks and lack financial literacy. Without a clear strategy for Gen Z, FirstBank risks missing out on this key market. The FirstBank must offer innovative, convenient solutions that build financial literacy and healthy habits to engage the next generation.

P.S. My team won this challenge :)

IN-APP FEATURES

"New Quick Action" banner with Financial Hub icon.

Customers can utilize the new in-app financial hub for better financial management and learning.

The current app interface utilizes Quick Action buttons on the dashboard. We propose adding a new quick-action button to link users to the proposed financial hub.

I propose an engaging gameday event for First Bank that embodies the brand's identity while resonating with Gen Z. The idea is to implement a digital “fortune teller," creatively leveraging the parallel with the traditional bank teller as well as the concepts around fortune. Attendees would input their name and email to receive a printed slip featuring an uplifting fortune alongside a banking tip. In addition to being an engaging pop-up, this activation offers the bank an opportunity to collect valuable marketing data for future outreach and engagement strategies.
