Design a 404 Error Page for a fintech app
🔍 The Task:
Design a helpful, user-friendly, and visually engaging 404 Error Page for a fintech platform, while keeping the tone respectful, professional, and approachable.
💡 What I focused on:
- A clear, friendly message that reduces frustration
- Simple layout with clear next steps (CTAs)
- On-brand design with fintech trust cues
- Responsive and accessible design
- A touch of personality through copy and visuals ✨
This was a great opportunity to apply best practices in UX writing, empty states, and error messaging — all while strengthening my portfolio.
📌 Designed for desktop. Would love to hear your feedback!

Ah, the illustration instantly reminds me of Miss Minutes in the Loki series 😀 I think the copy also aligns with what she used to say: witty, informative, and still reassuring (minus the mischievous part). When it comes to finances, it’s crucial to take it seriously; hence the double check after “Oops… Page Not Found,” immediately followed by “Need Assistance?” “…support available 24/7…” and the “Contact Support” button.
The solid black color could be toned down a bit to make it easier on the eyes, but this will do. Nice work, Subham!
The design is helpful, clear, and visually professional. Replacing the emoji with a simple, plain icon would improve comprehension and accessibility, since emojis can be too small and difficult for users with eyesight problems to recognize. As a best practice, it’s often better to use a single-color, minimalist icon. This change could make the page even more user-friendly and enhance your portfolio.
Nice work, Subham! The layout is clean, the message is reassuring, and the friendly visual adds personality. A few small tweaks—like simplifying the CTAs and refining icon usage—could boost clarity and accessibility. Overall, a thoughtful and professional 404 page design!
Nice work — the layout is clean, the copy is reassuring, and the visual + trust cues make a potentially frustrating moment feel calm and professional; the illustration gives personality without undermining credibility. One small tweak: streamline the CTAs (keep a single primary action like Return home and a clear secondary Contact support), replace the emoji with a single-color accessible icon, and double-check contrast for readability. Overall very polished — great job, keep refining! 🚀
Nice job!
I like the illustration and copy you used for this page. But I felt too many things are going on this page some of which are not that necessary. Like the icons for the buttons "Return home" and "Go back". The CTAs could also be consolidated by keeping one to go back and the second to contact support. The copy about the assistance could be on hovering the info icon on it. Apart from that, good job on designing a 404 Error Page.
I think there is too many CTA we can decrease it to max 2
GREAT!
