Design an MVP of a mobile app to help merchants with financing during the shipping process
Overview
Users often face financial problems during the shipment process. Sellers cannot receive payment until the products are delivered and their quality is checked. This delay, from when the shipment starts until it arrives, can hurt clients' finances. Lockstep can help with this issue.

Problem Statement
What issue are we facing now?
As previously explained, Lockstep is a sustainable trade finance service that lends money to merchants, so we need to create an intuitive and user-friendly presence for their product.
Problem :
Create an MVP mobile application prototype to help merchants borrow money from Lockstep.
Problem Understanding
Through Primary research was conducted to investigate how we can build a simple MVP that makes it easy for users to upload documents of the shipments and get a good sustainable score. Depending on that, the interest rate will be decided, and financial money will be provided
Pre-Research
During this stage, I dug deep to discover and fix the problems with the "current user flow". Using techniques like storyboard and competitive analysis
Findings
First we mapped out the process
Through pre-research, we found the key screens we needed to start with and some issues we needed to solve through the experience. So now we need to define and articulate the user flow.
Key screens
- Order Details
- Upload documents screen to determine the sustainability of the shipment
- Shipment Details
- Sustainability Score of the order and shipment.
We began with wireframes and created several iterations until we finalized this set of wireframes.
