Background
Xapo Bank is a pioneering digital bank that blends traditional banking services with the innovative world of cryptocurrency. Founded in 2013 by Wences Casares, Xapo initially began as a Bitcoin wallet and cold storage service, offering secure ways to store and manage digital assets.
Over time, it evolved into a fully regulated private bank, headquartered in Gibraltar, providing a unique combination of traditional banking, such as USD accounts and debit cards, alongside cryptocurrency services.
Xapo Bank's mission is to offer a secure and seamless financial experience, bridging the gap between traditional finance and the rapidly growing digital economy.
Brief
Xapo Bank tasked us with creating a versatile suite of assets for their platforms, including campaign films, product & lifestyle photography, social content, e-commerce visuals and website banners.
Our goal was to capture authentic lifestyle moments featuring the Xapo Mobile App and Xapo Card in everyday use, while integrating their brand colours — orange, red, and brown — into the images.
Specific grading was required in the post production stage to compliment their brand colours and to seamlessly align with their existing content & brand aesthetic across all platforms.
To enhance client end usability, we provided smart layers on all stills content, allowing Xapo Bank to effortlessly insert any image asset onto the phone screen without any manual adjustments.
