BBVA P2P Transaction Servicing

About P2P

P2P (peer-to-peer) Send encompasses a series of features designed to improve the sending and requesting of money between individuals and the visualization and understanding of its status.

Sending instant payments between individuals and businesses using a mobile phone number is known in Spain as Bizum and is the result of the collaboration of 34 banks in the country. However, this P2P sending method is known by other commercial names in different countries and has slight variations depending on the brand itself.

For several months, my team and I worked on updating different features that grouped the new updates in the money-sending and requesting flow.

• Variations: Slight variations and commercial names of P2P may happen depending on the country

• Scalability: Enabling seamless adaptation to future evolutions and additional features.

• User Management: Simplify the process for users to view and manage their requests and transactions.

My colleague and I were responsible for designing all the features while consulting daily with the stakeholders involved.

Goals

The main goals were:

• Enhance Multi-Contact Transactions

Enable users to simultaneously send or request money from up to 10 contacts, improving efficiency and convenience.

• Integrate Image Attachment Feature

Allow users to attach images along with transactions, providing additional context and personalization options.

• Simplify the Process

Streamline the flow, making it more intuitive and user-friendly to enhance the overall experience.

• Optimize Information Display for P2P Services

Tailor the display and accommodate the unique characteristics of P2P services in different countries.

We added the functionality to send money to up to 10 users simultaneously, the ability to attach an image or photograph, and expanded the concept field to 300 characters.

Additionally, we included a wallet selection option, as in Peru there are up to 15 different companies that facilitate P2P money transfers.

Overall Outcome

After months of dedicated work, the features of the P2P Transaction Servicing project are finally being developed and implemented across various countries, with Spain being one of the first to utilize these new functionalities.

This redesigned dashboard aligns with the bank's new visual design system and ensures scalability for future enhancements.

We are also collaborating with other countries to prepare for their adaptation and transition to the new designs, accommodating slight variations and different commercial names of P2P methods internationally.

This project represents a significant enhancement in the efficiency, security, and user experience of money sending and requesting, tailored to meet the unique needs of each market.
