agree  mergim: It can be translated also as "properness" or "correctness". Anyway as well as "coherence" gives the idea of the meaning.

Explanation:
This \"lends\" the moneyshop an identifiable aura, a certain mood and familiarity the user will need to navigate among the various sectors of interest.


Since it\'s ad copy,
I guess one could substitute for harmony: cohesion, symmetry, harmony, hominess, predictability, reassurance.

coherence sounds a tad technical and cold.
