Fintech / Cybersecurity
Callsign is a fast-growing fintech providing identity authentication and fraud prevention solutions to some of the world’s largest organisations. Its intelligence-driven platform combines deep behavioural insight with contextual decision-making to create secure, seamless digital journeys.

As the platform evolved and adoption increased, the mobile experience became a critical touchpoint. The white-label nature of the application meant it needed to balance strong brand foundations with flexibility, accessibility, and consistency across multiple client implementations.

“What a great agency to work with. Honest, transparent, and super high-quality work. Their expertise across multiple domains shines through especially in detailed product design discussions.”

While technically robust, Callsign’s mobile application no longer reflected the quality or ambition of the product. An internal review, supported by an RNIB accessibility audit, highlighted usability and accessibility issues across the end-to-end journey.

Callsign needed to redefine its mobile design system, improve clarity and usability, and ensure the experience met accessibility standards while remaining scalable for future growth.

Our approach
  • Mapping the journey We worked closely with Callsign to identify key user journeys, technical constraints, and behavioural patterns. Happy and unhappy paths were documented in detail, with all existing screens annotated against RNIB accessibility recommendations.
  • Redesigning the app We created a new mobile design system and component library for iOS and Android. Refreshed layouts, components, and interaction patterns were supported by clear documentation covering use cases and scenarios. A defined set of design principles ensured consistency, accessibility, and alignment with Callsign’s brand as the product continues to scale.
Accessible by design

Accessibility was a core design requirement from day one, so it wasn't a layer added at the end. Following Callsign’s RNIB audit, we embedded accessibility considerations into every stage of the redesign, from journey mapping through to component creation.

Each interaction was assessed for clarity, contrast, hierarchy, and cognitive load, ensuring users could move through authentication journeys with confidence and minimal friction. Design decisions were tested against real-world use cases, helping to balance security requirements with ease of use.

All designs were validated with RNIB, giving Callsign confidence that the experience meets recognised accessibility standards and supports inclusive use across different contexts, devices, and user needs.

Built to scale

As a white-label product used by enterprise clients, Callsign’s mobile platform needed to remain flexible without losing consistency. The redesigned system was built around reusable components and clear interaction patterns, allowing new features and client requirements to be introduced without fragmenting the experience.

Clear documentation supported future development, setting out how components should be used and extended. This gave internal teams a shared reference point, reduced reliance on one-off design decisions, and ensured the platform could scale while maintaining usability and accessibility standards.

The outcomes & impact

The project resulted in a comprehensive UX and UI system delivered through a fully clickable prototype. A library of components and screens gave Callsign a shared vision for the future of its mobile experience, supporting internal teams and reinforcing confidence with enterprise clients that accessibility, usability, and scalability are built in from the ground up.
