Overview

First Tech FCU serves 600,000+ members, primarily tech industry employees. I developed their mobile banking app featuring mobile deposits, P2P payments, and comprehensive account management.

The Challenge

Members expected a modern banking experience comparable to fintech apps. The legacy system had slow load times, and mobile deposit success rates were below industry standards. P2P payments were not available.

The Solution

Rebuilt the mobile deposit flow using MI-SNAP SDK with intelligent image capture. Integrated Zelle for instant P2P payments. Implemented optimistic UI updates for faster perceived performance.
