- selected for presentation at the 2019 FCAT Undergraduate Conference
- invited to share the project with Vancity's Digital Strategy team
Financial literacy is an important component of all of our products and services at Vancity. The app demonstrated the unique financial needs of our members and community, with excellent design and a modern take on Vancity branding. This project inspired our Digital team to push for new user experiences. It is clear that the product was well researched and would produce the results that the team wanted.
Opportunity
Despite the importance of credit scores in personal finance, an estimated 56% of Canadians have never checked their credit score and 31% don't know how to improve their score.
Outcome
MyCredit is a companion app for Vancity members to manage their credit and set goals that encourage credit building, to better support their financial well-being.
