Allica Bank lanches completely new product line in 60 days with Modu

Allica Bank, established only 6 years ago, is now the fastest growing fintech of all time. This unprecedented growth is due to a relentless focus on providing modern, cost-effective banking services to the previously underappreciated SME sector.

As part of the next wave of growth, Allica approached Modu to help with the launch of a series of new customer acquisition applications. 

These applications are designed to bring together financial insight data from many sources into one easy-to-understand portfolio and credit analytics reporting dashboard.

60-Day Results

  • A fully functional ReactJS application with Kotlin backend, dockerised and deployed to the Azure cloud.


  • A completely tailored UX design experience iterated and tested with target customers.


  • A set of adaptable microservices connecting all entities using a hexagonal architecture approach to integration.


  • All the above packaged into a maintainable delivery compliant with the bank's security, architecture, and operational standards for onward enhancement.

The Pathfinding Approach

Knowing that time was of the essence, but integration of multiple third-party data sources could cause problems later, we first 
developed a basic and low-cost POC to explore and verify the idea.


  • We developed all components of the solution as dockerised deployable containers to remove any impact of variations in environments or infrastructure.


  • We also immediately began exploring design options so that once the underlying technology approach was proven, we could start on the full build with confidence.


  • Once the build started, we continuously checked and rechecked all decisions with the target customers to ensure there would be no surprises late in the day.


  • We developed the integration layer in such a way that new data sources or changes to chosen data providers could be accommodated with minimal re-development.

What we acheived
