My Role

UX Designer

Responsibilities

  • User Research, Stakeholder Workshop, Concept Validation
  • Wireframing, Prototyping, Design Strategy

Collaborators

  • Team: 1 PM, 2 UX Researchers, 2 Designers
  • Client: CEO, Product, Marketing, Technical R&D, BD

PROJECT OVERVIEW

Envisioning the Product’s Next Chapter

To help the client envision a next-generation version of their digital wallet, we set out to explore how the product could evolve to better address user needs and reflect the brand’s aspirations.

Through early research, co-creation workshop, and concept validation, we uncovered key opportunities and proposed strategic directions for the future experience.

MY ROLE & CONTRIBUTION

Driving Design Through Insight and Validation

  • I was the sole UX designer collaborating closely with the team.
  • Supported research synthesis to frame design opportunities.
  • Co-led planning of the stakeholder workshop.
  • Proposed two UX design directions for concept testing.
  • Stepped in for the Design Lead to oversee validation reporting.

PROBLEM

The Product Experience No Longer Supports Strategic Growth

The client aimed to become the go-to payment app—especially for younger users—but the experience felt outdated, cluttered, and disconnected.

Even with strong local adoption and a wide range of features, the product lacked emotional appeal, clear value communication, and everyday relevance.

To move forward, the product had to become simpler, smarter, and more meaningful.

PRODUCT VISION

Defining a Clear Path Forward through Cross-functional Alignment

Conducted a design workshop with cross-functional stakeholders to align on the product’s future direction. Synthesized research insights and strategic goals to define:

  • Priority user segments
  • High-impact opportunity areas evaluated across user needs, business value, and feasibility
  • Brand personality traits to inform design tone

DESIGN CHALLENGE

Designing for clarity, delight, and everyday relevance

  • Create a Sense of Popularity and Value
  • Clarify the Product’s Value
  • Refresh the Brand Personality

DESIGN STRATEGY

Framing Experience Strategies for Concept Validation

I created two distinct design concepts to test how different IA and experience flows could better meet user needs.

Each concept explored a unique approach to prioritizing content, guiding navigation, and delivering a sense of clarity, value, and emotional appeal.

The goal was to explore a broader opportunity space and validate which experience resonated more with target users.

VALIDATION FINDING

Resonating Through Simplicity, Clarity, and Value

User feedback revealed three key experience drivers :

  • Simplicity: Clear, task-based navigation made it easier to access everyday actions like pay, view bills, and check account status—without feeling overwhelmed.
  • Clarity: Users valued personalized info—like rewards, spending, or reminders—as long as it was timely, easy to scan, and didn’t overexpose sensitive data.
  • Value: Features that felt tailored (e.g. membership progress, exclusive offers) gave users a reason to come back and engage more deeply.

DESIGN SUGGESTION

Designing for Everyday Utility, Long-Term Loyalty, and Brand Trust

1

Reinforce the sense of reward

Surface personalized perks and progress indicators to boost engagement and highlight the benefits of continued use.

2

Make payments feel effortless

Streamline frequent actions like payment and top-up, and ensure supporting tools are accessible and intuitive.

3

Build long-term product strength

Provide light-touch financial insights and tailored recommendations to support ongoing relevance and habit formation.

4

Evolve the brand experience

Refresh the tone and interface to feel modern, friendly, and trustworthy—building confidence through consistency and clarity.

IMPACT

Turning Insights Into Strategic Alignment

Key outcomes from the concept validation helped shape internal discussions and provide direction for future experience evolution:

  • The proposed concepts clarified how users respond to different navigation flows, content structures, and value communication strategies.
  • The work helped align cross-functional teams around a clearer experience vision grounded in real user needs.
  • The proposed directions sparked broader conversations around long-term product value, user trust, and future service integration.
