Disrupting the Banking Experience: Building a Mobile-Only Bank
Starling Bank is a mobile-only challenger bank offering a personal current account. After gaining our banking licence in July 2016 we delivered two fully featured apps (iOS and Android) to the public in less than a year. As a mobile-only bank, our mobile apps are the only way for customers to access their accounts so these apps are absolutely critical. How do we build our apps with the features people expect from their traditional banks but also provide innovations like savings goals and spending insights with limited time and engineers? In this talk, we will provide some insight into how we've built our mobile-banking apps and how we organise our teams to deliver new features, how we ensure that our applications remain robust through the iterations, the lessons we've learnt and what we are working towards.
