UX Solution & features design
Biller self-onboarding feature empowers Equity Bank customers to swiftly apply for an Equity Bank pay bill number online, unlocking the perks of being a biller and simplifying bill collection and tracking.


The customer management feature lets billers effortlessly include customers in their profile, allowing for seamless payments, invoice sharing, reminders, and payment receipts.
Service Management: As an Equity biller, I can effortlessly add, view, and remove services from my Biller Manager profile, making it a breeze to publish my offerings for customer subscription.

We're constantly introducing & iterating a host of additional features, including:

Automated invoicing to allow billers to setup recurrent invoicing schedules for their customers, based on the services offered.
02
Statements: The biller will be able to generate and send statements

04
Reporting: This feature will allow the biller to pull reports on payments and invoices per customer.
Wireframing & Prototyping
I've crafted the foundational wireframes and prototypes, primed for rigorous usability testing. Our next step? Elevate and iterate for a flawless user experience.
