Getting ready to invest differently

Mox is also entering the wealth management space with Mox Invest.

A new app interface brings user experience to new heights

The Mox app is already well-regarded for balancing simplicity, attractiveness and convenience in a single user interface. It results from a solid foundation design language system Mox built over the years. The same system helps Mox deliver consistent, high-quality experiences across all our products and services.

• An innovative "Smart Swipe" and "Dedicated Hubs" create an engaging and fluid information structure, while also providing customers with a summary of vital information at a glance;
• A new “Mox Credit” section offers an intuitive look at credit and instalment information;
• A new “Mox Rewards” section provides a single location for customers to conveniently track their earning progress and stay updated with the latest campaigns;
• The enhanced dashboard enables customers to directly access account summaries and tools to monitor their spending and manage their finances more efficiently.
