Problem Statement

Challenges

Challenges

Lack of Clear Communication: Difficulties in effectively communicating the dual benefits of discounts for additional connections and extending these discounts to multiple accounts within a household.

Limited Messaging: Insufficient information about the multisave feature, affecting both new and existing customers, resulting in low feature awareness.

Unintuitive Online Journey: The process of adding multiple SIMs and unlocking discounts was complex and non-intuitive.

Clunky and Manual User Experience: The process to avail of the multisave discount was cumbersome and not user-friendly.

Discount-Focused Promotion: Overemphasis on the discount rather than the broader benefits for families and households.

Research

Insights from Research

Research indicated a clear customer expectation of overall discounts when consolidating their connections with a single brand. However, awareness of O2’s multisave offer was significantly low at only 7%, which was likely affecting O2's market share in terms of SIMs per household.

Research Questions Explored:

- How familiar are users with the concept of group discounts in telecommunications?

- What factors influence users' decisions when selecting devices or services?

- Do users perceive buying multiple devices or services as offering better value than purchasing individually?

The Process

User Flows

I developed new user flows for the multisave experience, including paths for discovery and resurfacing during the purchase journey, which was critical. The redesigned flows aimed to make the benefits more apparent and the process more intuitive.

Wireframes

Low-fidelity wireframes were created to redefine the structure of the multisave experience. These wireframes focused on simplifying the process of adding and managing multiple SIMs and services.

Design

Visual and Interaction Design + Design System

Snapshots from the design phase show the implementation of a cleaner, more intuitive interface, which was validated through user testing to ensure it met customer needs and expectations.

User interface designs were created using O2’s well-crafted Design System.

Designing with “CDS” streamlined my workflow, ensuring consistency and efficiency. It provided all the necessary tools and guidelines for creating user-friendly experiences that align perfectly with the brand.
