N26 just switched from „mobile only” to „mobile first” – new banking experience from the mobile app to the web browser on any screen

N26 launched N26 for web today with brand new design and  functionalities. Features include a discreet mode increasing customers’ privacy, an extensive  download function including PDFs and CSV files, and a dark mode offering a clean look that  lets customers focus on what is important.

„N26 for web has been designed to be completely  responsive, which gives customers easy and direct access to their finances on different types  of devices. N26 strives for simplicity and follows a user-centric approach, which is reflected in the design of  N26 for web​. The clean interface provides the customer with a comprehensive visual overview  and facilitates easy management of their finances. In addition, the dark mode reduces  distractions and is easier on the eyes at night. „, according to the press release.

“N26 is now bringing the best banking  experience from the mobile app to the web  browser on any screen,” explains Valentin  Stalf, CEO & Co-founder of N26. “We are  excited and proud to offer our customers  special features such as the discreet  mode, and to deliver the same unrivaled  N26 user experience across all platforms.”

The design and development of N26 for  web is based on direct customer feedback  and meets their demand to be able to access N26 on bigger screens, in addition to the mobile  app. This is the next step for the Mobile Bank in building a state-of-the-art online banking  experience regardless of the device customers are using.

Next to the design, N26 also introduced the discreet mode within N26 for web, providing an  additional level of privacy. As more and more N26 customers are working and logging in to their  bank accounts in co-working spaces, open-plan offices and cafes, privacy is becoming  increasingly relevant.

„The discreet mode masks the account activity as well as balance in the  web browser. Customers can enable and disable it with one click, if they do not wish to show  their account balance.”, the bank says.

Monthly statements, as well as the account information and IBAN number, can now be  downloaded as PDF in the web browser. Furthermore, customers can download CSV files, that  simplify accounting and the filing of tax returns due to the easy access of information.

The launch of additional banking features is planned for later this summer, which will help  customers to easily manage their personal finances.
