Project Need
The Coles Mobile Wallet is the first of its kind. By combining paywave technology with flybuys rewards, and an intuitive and secure banking app, the Coles Mobile Wallet becomes a complete solution for managing Coles Credit Cards.
In addition to this, the Coles Mobile Wallet makes it easier for customers to manage their accounts by providing them with their credit card account as well as their flybuys in the same place, with live transaction data anywhere, anytime. Users can also view and activate special offers while at the supermarket and make the most out of their Coles Credit Cards and flybuys rewards.
Coles has seen a significant increase in account logins since app launch, demonstrating the success and popularity of the product. The app also has over 2700 downloads in the first two days and is rated 4.5 stars on both the App Store and 5 stars on Google Play.

The apps have been designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind, in compliance with best practice standards according to iOS and Android user experience guidelines. The results of user testing the wireframes and visual designs were fed back into the design process, resulting in an improved user experience in the final product, saving time in development. The final product has a beautiful user interface and is a pleasure to use, ensuring the app is a positive and quality reflection of the Coles brand.
