School Project
CIBC is a major Canadian bank offering a comprehensive range of financial services, including personal and business banking, wealth management, and investment services. It serves clients through both online platforms and physical branches.
We propose a new feature called "Happy Money" for the existing CIBC app. This feature would help users manage their mood spending—how their emotions influence their spending habits—by providing tools and insights to encourage more mindful and informed financial decisions.
Mood Spending
Shopping driven by emotions instead of actual needs. Whether you're feeling stressed, happy, or bored, these feelings can lead you to make impulsive purchases that your wallet might not be happy about.
The Last Piece Falls into Place 🧩
After countless iterations, we’ve perfected the user flow. And here it is.

After shopping, the app will remind you to check what you bought. Was it planned or an impulse buy? Easily classify your spending with just a few taps.
