Product design for Malta's fintech and gaming companies
We design apps and web platforms for Maltese fintech, payments and gaming companies, where trust and compliance shape every screen. We're a design studio from Bosnia & Herzegovina, in the same time zone as Malta.

Designing inside the rules
Regulated products have rules about what you show, when and how. A design that ignores them gets sent back by compliance and the release slips. We bring compliance into the process early so that doesn't happen.
We've designed finance products like Tőzsdémánia and Awaypay, where the interface had to make people feel safe with their money before anything else.
What's included
- Stakeholder interviews & competitive analysis
- User flows & information architecture
- Wireframes & low-fidelity concepts
- High-fidelity UI design in Figma
- Interactive prototype for testing & sign-off
- Responsive layouts (desktop, tablet, mobile)
- Component library foundation & design tokens
- Developer handoff with specs, annotations & assets
How we work
- 01
Discovery
Structured stakeholder interviews, a competitive audit, and a review of any existing analytics. We leave with a shared brief that defines success metrics before a single screen is drawn — so no one is surprised at the end.
- 02
Research & Architecture
User interviews, jobs-to-be-done mapping, and information architecture work. We structure the product around how users actually think, not how the back end is organised.
- 03
Design & Iteration
Wireframes to high-fidelity UI in Figma, shared in short cycles. You review early and often so feedback shapes the direction rather than arriving when changes are expensive.
- 04
Prototype & Test
Clickable prototypes tested with real users against the success metrics defined in discovery. We iterate on friction before a single line of code is written.
- 05
Handoff & Build Support
Engineer-ready Figma files with a component library, interaction specs, edge-case documentation, and asset exports. We stay available throughout the build to review implementation and answer questions.
What a typical project costs
Take a product redesign: research, new user flows, UI for the main screens and a prototype tested with users. That's usually around 160 hours of work. Here's roughly what it costs with an agency in Malta and with us.
Typical Malta agency
€13,600
160 h × €85/h (estimate)
frame387, from Bosnia & Herzegovina
€8,000
160 h × €50/h
That's about €5,600 less, or 41% of the budget, for the same work done by senior designers.
We couldn't find solid public data on agency rates in Malta, so the local figure is our estimate. This is an example, not a quote. Every project is priced separately after a short call.

Frequently asked
Can you work with our compliance team?
Yes. We share designs with them early and treat their requirements as part of the brief.
Do you design responsible-gaming features?
Yes. Deposit limits, reality checks and self-exclusion should be easy to find and use, and we design them that way.
How long does a product design project take?
Most MVPs take 4–8 weeks depending on scope — we delivered Persuava's full SaaS redesign in five. After a short discovery call we'll give you a clear timeline and a fixed or capped estimate, not an open-ended hourly rate.
Do you work with our existing development team?
Yes. We deliver Figma files structured around your team's stack, with a component library, interaction notes, and edge-case documentation so engineers can build without guesswork. We stay available for questions through the entire build.
