I went straight into user pain points, fees, FX rate transparency, transfer speed.
Start by clarifying the scope of 'cross-border payment feature' and the user segments it serves, then identify key pain points such as speed, cost, transparency, and reliability. Propose improvements that balance user impact with technical feasibility, and prioritize them based on business value and engineering effort.
Pro tip: Show awareness of regulatory and compliance constraints in cross-border payments, and suggest improvements that leverage Revolut's existing infrastructure and partnerships rather than building from scratch.
Ask clarifying questions to understand which cross-border payment feature (e.g., remittances, business payments) and what success metrics matter (e.g., speed, cost, adoption).
Map the current user journey and highlight friction points such as hidden fees, slow settlement, lack of tracking, or poor FX rates.
Generate ideas across technology (e.g., real-time rails, blockchain), product (e.g., fee transparency, multi-currency wallets), and partnerships (e.g., local payment networks).
Use a framework like RICE or impact/effort matrix to rank ideas, considering technical complexity, regulatory hurdles, and user value.
Propose measurable KPIs (e.g., reduction in transfer time, cost savings) and outline a phased rollout plan with validation.
