Design Challenge

While working away from the physical device and its environment, designing a digital experience within an actual environment is such a sophisticated challenge. Also, during the design process, another issue was ambiguous conditions of physical environments and their impact on users. The physical environments of Automated-Teller-Machines were visited to observe the routines of users and to understand better.

Project Duration

The project's process started in March 2019, in Istanbul. The first release was in 2020. It is still an ongoing journey with design updates and user feedback.

Operation Flow

Akbank designed a new experience of Automated-Teller-Machines with the mission of being future proof and sought to leverage new and old technologies to pioneer future banking. Financial clarity is provided through simple and insightful designs using data and customer insights. With the new mobile-like approach, users feel more personal via familiar interactions, the smoother and self-sufficient experience. Also, the average length of transactions is less by approximately ten seconds.

Research

With a human-centric approach, through a future-proof and mobile-like experience, it is aimed to support a broad range of user types and serve their needs. To achieve this, it was not only benefited from a wide range of research methods but also used data and user behavior patterns to drive design decisions. Moreover, several user testing sessions like A/B testing, usability testing, and accessibility testing were conducted to validate the hypothesizes during the prototyping period.

Inspiration

The starting question was "How to Design Automated-Teller-Machines in a revolutionary way?". Although the number of monthly usage of Akbank ATM is around 19 million, its experience was outdated and inefficient. While the cash-centric Automated-Teller-Machine experience is still relevant in Turkey, Akbank defines the future of their experience as an important touchpoint, by considering its evolution.
