Post - launch improvements

After three months from the first launch , I conducted a thorough quantitative and qualitative analysis on the live experience such as a

- Funnel analysis
- Heatmaps
- Watch user session recordingsin order to identitfy improvements.

What I learned

The personal data page is where the majority of users leave with a 79% dropout rate

Problem hypothesis

The identity check pop-up is text-heavy and has a friendly tone of voice, which led users to just close it and leave the page without actually grasping its importance.

Ideation

From the problem framed, I collaborated with designes to ideate on solutions

Out of the solutions, we converged to one solution that we all felt confident to test.

🗨️ The underlying assumption I wanted to test

Does a straightforward and visually appealing pop-up increase users' awareness of the ID verification and translate into fewer drop-offs?

AB testing

Besides the text and visual changes stated above, I also brought the most important instructions from the existing contextualization page to the new modal.

Therefore, I decided to redirect users that clicked the modal straight to the first form page.

Expected result

I expected to increase the percentage of users who get to the Address Page from 15.9% to 17.49% in 2 weeks

Outcome

Primary metric: Address Page reach

The experiment exceeded expectations and increased the percentage of users who reached the address page by 357% (from 14,47% to 66,25%).

Secondary metric: CTR of the new pop up

The click through rate of the pop increased bt 144.26% from 6% to 16¨%

This increase in conversion rate contributed to an overall increase in verified users. A total of 2800+ merchants successfully verified their identities, with only 13 support cases being opened.
