I donāt think thatās insignificant. Usability is a key aspect of anything. Someone with limited sight would probably be able to whip out their Mondo card with ease if it stands out like that.
Exactly my pointā¦ none of which seem to be on offer from my current bankā¦just the custom card design!
I love the hot coral coloured card and I would hate to see it go.
A lot of positive comments.
Hot coral all the way . I had a number of people remark on the colour while waiting to be served at the bar over the weekend and I naturally found myself selling Mondo to them.
I like the blue card. But one thing I would like to keep, that is the white card number and expire date and name. Because for so many card tried these in sliver, and sliver wears off in about three months, what you left is a card that number is the same color as background. But the white digit is actually prevent this happening. I think also the white numbers will be more pop (my eye sign isnt that good and its easier for me to read)
I would be gutted to lose the coral card. I spotted someone using one in a coffee shop and had to ask them what it was so I could have one. Its unlikely I would have become a customer so soon otherwise. It was the only factor. I knew nothing about your product at that stage. Itās the best looking card. It goes perfectly with my CDG neon wallet! Please donāt take it away! Donāt go boring or at least give us a choice. Virgin give a choice for credit card design, which is more thoughtful than most, but they spoil it with too much branding. The minimalist design of the mondo card is perfect.
Please keep the coral card. Itās unique and everyone always comments on it. Not to mention you canāt really confuse it with others.
Every time I use it, the love pours out for the colour.
What about mixing both colours? Keep the coral colour, but add in some of the blue - that in my opinion looks equally good.
The coral would continue from mondoās current card and will help with brand continuity, while the blue fits in well with the design of the mondo app.
In terms of symbolising mondoās visions and aims, the stark contrast and harsh lines could play on the idea of being different and unique compared to other banks; none of whom have similarly designed cards nor features and services.
PLEASE donāt lose the choral colour! I really like the colour and so many people have commented on it. It is such a unique and distinctive part of the brand.
Personally id love to pay Ā£5 just to have my own personalised card. i know barclays used to do this, so i know it is possible. However, i would like a card that is a special edition for the first who signed up like we did. Could we have pictures of the mondo team on the card or something extra special. The bank is ment to be āpersonalā not generic, i do like the coral card but generic is tooo generic in the nose of marketing these days. So what i am saying is that someone at some cash register is going to ask about a more personalised card and where a person got it from. ITs word of mouth marketing at its best. I know this has happened to me when i had a paypal card.
Yes, the āchoralā colour has people singing!
Haha! Oops! Well spotted!
Well, hot coral is about to hit Los Angles, and there Iām sure it WILL have to compete with the āblackā / centurion AMEXs of this world.
Letās see what our cousins think of it. #coral4life
The brighter the better! It brightens up my mood as I spend away. It is a stand out colour and card, all of my other card and store cards are boring and safe colours
+1 for the coral colour. Stands out nicely in the wallet.
I think keeping the hot coral is even more important now that the name is changing. I donāt love the name Mondo (gasp/horror) - but it was simple and easy for people to remember. On the regular occasions when cashiers and the like commented on the card and asked where they were available from - simplicity was key. There needs to be some consistency during the name change. Keeping the M and the card colour will help.
Iāve said it before - hot coral is genius marketing.
Mondo is different and exciting, and certainly the alpha/beta cards reflected that. When I received the deep blue heavy-weighted envelope I didnāt realise it was Mondo at first - when was the last time a bank had presentation skills like that? Unless youāre part of some high-spending club, I suspect never. The hot coral (Iād call it orangey-pink, but Iām R/G colourblind so I donāt fancy descriptions) looks great, although I do really like the other design.
Personally Iād love to keep the hot coral once :mondo: goes full bank, ideally with the beta marking too
I think itās worth considering that future users wont be as enthusiastic as us, or might prefer a more bland design, and so I do think the design at the beginning of the thread should be available in the future.
The hot coral should be available as an option or an alpha/beta reward though as so many of us love it, and Iām sure many more will come to love it.
I not my card yesterday and love it! In one evening out I got asked 3 times āthatās a bright card, what is it?ā. Genius! All three people got a quick app demo and 2 signed up there and then. This was in DORSET where nothing ever moves on and people are terrified of change. Itās a piece of marketing genius and I love it!
