Begin your journey to financial health
A place to achieve financial freedom
Money management is hard for people of any age and in any stage of their financial life. Apprisen is a nonprofit that provides custom help to people hoping to achieve financial goals and eventually reach financial freedom. When side • sea first connected with Apprisen, their website was a bit confusing, outdated, and no longer reflected the progressive and expanding mission of the organization.


Meet IRIS
Apprisen wanted to make the sign-up process as accessible and painless as possible. Together, we came up with IRIS, an avatar that guides users through the step-by-step process.


Putting the spotlight on services
Apprisen's many financial services are the most important part of their mission, so we made sure each one got its own page with plenty of engaging elements and functionality.


Built-In Financial Calculators
Some of Apprisen's most important resources are the many on-site calculators they provide for different financial situations. Designing and building branded calculators ensures the site is a powerful and robust tool for users.
Building a Robust Resource
Apprisen is so much more than a marketing tool. The site is an important resource, with tons of information and financial tools for those who need the help, even without signing up for their services. Their resources page is packed with opportunities to learn - classes, workshops, worksheets, calculators, tips on budgeting, credit scores, and more, all organized seamlessly into a clean scrolling experience.
Support at every step
If tackling finances was easy, everyone would do it. Unfortunately, too many people feel too overwhelmed to even begin trying to manage their money. That's why we worked with Apprisen to create a site that was as accessible and supportive as possible. The IRIS avatar stays pinned on the page as you scroll, so users can always chat with a representative at any moment. Friendly calls-to-action are prevalent on the site, helping lower that barrier to entry. Conversational, yet professional language and bright images create a welcoming and safe feeling.
