A mobile one-stop-shop to manage your bank accounts

Meet Carrefour Finance Mobile

For over 30 years, Carrefour has been providing financial solutions for both purchases and personal projects of its customers. These services are offered under the banners "Fimaser" or "Carrefour Finance" but they have always stayed true to the core values of the Carrefour Group: to offer the best financial products and services at the best possible rates to as many customers as possible.

Manage your cards in real time

In order to improve their current user experience, Carrefour wanted to revamp the mobile branch of their offering. In short, the app enables the following:

Carrefour partners since 2016

Being trusted by Carrefour through our work on the mobile Carrefour shopping app since 2016, we quickly found common ground in the development approach.

Angular and Ionic at its core

Taking Carrefour's preferences and the technical requirements in account, we decided to build the app in Angular and packaged it in a Native app with Ionic.

To ensure that the mobile app could take advantage of all possible native functionalities of both iOS and Android, we used Ionic's Capacitator. This way the app can easily make use of a device's fingerprint scanner or camera for Face ID.

Security as a Top-Priority

Online security is an essential aspect of all finance-related mobile apps. A secure app is key to maintain customer trust and drive long-term growth.

In order to guarantee a secure way of logging in, we've implemented the principle of SSL-pinning. Through SSL-pinning, the back-end immediately verifies if you're logging in on a safe device. When the certificate is not authentic, all communication is dropped.

To further improve security, you'll be automatically logged out of the app after 3 minutes of inactivity. If active over 30 minutes, you will be asked to authenticate again.
