The Problem

Alajo's savings platform needed a stronger first impression and expanded customer-facing tools to support its mission of financial inclusion for low-income earners without smartphones or internet access.

The Solution

Alajo is a savings platform that digitizes traditional 'ajo' savings for low-income earners, helping millions achieve financial inclusion without needing smartphones or internet access.

My Role
