Money for couples

One aspect of the work we did was centered around helping couples navigate their financial health together; discussing money is often the most contentious thing in a relationship, so we wanted to re-frame how we approached this touchy subject.

Helping those wanting to change their financial outlook and viewpoint

Upwise was started by MetLife as a way for their customers customers to become more financially literate and better understand things like saving for the long-term. We came into an already established design system, but had room to expand it.
