Deutsche Bildung is a banking company from Germany that needed our support in building a web application for taking loans by students. Initially, we collaborated with Distology Studio until the end of 2022. From 2023 onwards, we became solely responsible for the project.
The main objectives were to enhance the online loan application experience, improve conversion rates, and assist students in managing their finances while preparing for their careers.
The existing loan application form was unintuitive
and led to high drop-off rates. It was challenging to fill out, and there were a few steps when students might drop out of the conversion funnel.
Our task was to develop a user-friendly, mobile-optimized form that simplified the application process. Additional responsibilities included:
Enabling students to track loan payments and manage finances.
Implementing an educational portal with career guidance resources.
Ensuring the platform was ultra-secure and GDPR-compliant.
Our involvement expanded over time, proving our expertise and reliability.
As a result:
Now, students can easily apply for a loan by navigating through a user-friendly and visually appealing system of forms accessible on both desktop and mobile devices.
The platform now receives dozens of loan requests weekly and has become a fully functional financial hub for students.
If a student starts filling out the form but doesn't complete it, they will receive an email notification as a reminder.
Upon submitting the form, the system calculates their loan eligibility based on their field of study and grades. The contract versions differ depending on multiple variables. Once approved, the loan agreement is signed online.
To complete the contract signing process, users are required to download the IDnow app, where they meet with a consultant for verification. Then, users can track and manage their future payments
and view previously paid installments.
After receiving a loan, students gain access to the career counselling portal, where they can find supportive articles, images and videos.

Our involvement in the project grew over time. We had a previous relationship with Squareball, that asked us for support with building this application. We started by creating a validated form and were soon engaged in the whole project.
The design was made by an external agency,
and as the UX was crucial for students to fill out
the form successfully, we needed to adjust it to make it more intuitive.
We’ve built a user-friendly website that meets all the requirements. Our impact leads to client’s success.
We developed the frontend solution within a month and a half, ensuring a smooth and engaging user experience. The main challenge was creating an intuitive, mobile-friendly form system. We implemented:
To prevent users from abandoning incomplete applications, we integrated an automated email notification system:
Given the financial nature of the platform, security was a top priority:
To enhance security and user experience, we developed a passwordless login system:
To allow flexible content updates, we implemented:
We continuously optimized the platform’s backend for scalability and reliability:
We continued refining the platform, adding new features, and enhancing user experience.
