Web Design Brief

Design/ PSD Files required.

LinkedFinance.com is the market leader in crowd lending/peer to peer lending in Ireland. Businesses/SME’s can borrow anything from €5,000 to €100,000 at interest rates much more favourable than those offered by the banks. LF is also a quicker and less bureaucratic than traditional lending institutions. We are a viable alternative to banks and traditional sources of finance.

Our lenders are members of the public and they can lend directly to Irish businesses in amounts from €50 to €2,000. They get a better rate of return than deposit accounts, as well as the feel good factor of supporting a local business.

We have just completed a full rebrand of our logo and colours and would now like to utilise these to best effect by implementing them in a total redesign of our homepage to attract borrowers and lenders. Please see the attached files for the brand guidelines and logo/colours to be used.

We are looking for a designer to utilise our new branding in a creative way, conveying that we are modern, trustworthy, competitive and friendly/local.

We currently have two different user groups:
1- Lenders; this currently consists of members of the public but in future will expand to include financial institutions

2- Business borrowers looking for funds for their business

Embracing and balancing both of these user groups is difficult so we would like the homepage to primarily target borrowers but incorporate clear alternative calls to action for lenders/prospective lenders as well.

We would like:
Infinite scroll homepage
New logo and tagline on a fixed header which should also include; ‘Marketplace’ ‘About’ ‘FAQ’ and a clear login button
A static full bleed image
Overlaid over this we would like a loan calculator in a similar style/functionality to this one on www.wonga.com. It should have:
an image of a slider icon with amounts from €0 to €100,000
A text field with ‘Business Loan amount’ which fills when the slider is moved
Then, a text field called ‘Monthly repayment’
An email field with a clear call to action ie ‘Go’ or ‘Get Started’
The purpose of this is to enable prospective borrowers to quickly and easily get a quote estimate for their loan
Underneath this we would like to have an alternate call to action to target prospective lenders; something like ‘Looking to Lend?’

Further down the page we would like to have a heading ‘What is Linked Finance?’
(include information from company overview)
