- Transitions now use one of two consistent animation styles, smooth or snappy
- Money figures are never animated in a way that could look like they are moving
- Reduce Motion, set at device level, shows the finished, still version automatically
Across the redesigned CFIN pages, transitions — opening a menu, switching a tab, revealing a section as you scroll — now use one of two consistent animation styles: a smooth one and a snappier one. We deliberately never animate money figures in a way that could look like a balance is moving or bouncing, and if your device or browser has Reduce Motion turned on, CFIN shows the finished, still version of each animation instead.
Why it matters
Consistent, restrained motion makes an interface feel more polished and predictable.
Avoiding any animation on money figures that could be read as movement keeps account balances, profit and loss, and similar figures feeling exact and trustworthy rather than playful.
What you need to do
If you prefer no motion at all, turn on Reduce Motion in your operating system's accessibility settings. CFIN will respect it automatically.
In detail
- Two consistent animation styles — a smooth one and a snappier one — are used across every transition in the redesign.
- Money figures are never animated in a way that could look like a balance bouncing or moving on its own.
- Reduce Motion, set at your operating system level, shows the finished, still version of every animation instead.
- Scroll-triggered reveals on the homepage now start a little earlier and finish quickly, so content does not sit half-faded while you are already looking at it.
One more thing
The decision to never animate a money figure in a way that implies movement was a deliberate, explicit rule from early in the redesign, not an incidental choice: a balance that appears to bounce or slide, even gently, risks being read as more dynamic or playful than an account balance should ever look.
If animation ever makes you uncomfortable or is simply not something you want, turning on Reduce Motion in your device's accessibility settings is fully supported and respected throughout.
