SUMMARY

Building a saving habit is a frustrating and isolating experience for 16-25yr olds. Most financial tools rely on discipline and guilt, offering little motivation or emotional support, often leading us with a $0 saving altogether.

What if saving felt less like self-control and more like collaboration?

Bachat transforms saving into a habit-building, social experience by turning financial discipline into a shared quest. Through gamified daily actions, visual progress tracking, and collaborative accountability, users build consistent saving behaviors alongside their closest friends. Instead of saving alone, users encourage one another, track collective progress, and learn to manage money more mindfully—together.

Reflections

  • This project began with curiosity about my own behavior. By questioning why my roommate and I struggled to save money, I was able to uncover a relatable pain point for many Gen-Z users. Starting from personal context helped me empathize more deeply with the user journey.

  • From initial sketches to user testing, many ideas failed before the right solution emerged. Staying resilient, until you find the perfect solution.

  • Put usability first. I learned that testing earlier and more often creates clearer, more intuitive solutions. Moving forward, I’ll focus on usability more.
