TIMELINE

6 Weeks

THE PROBLEM

An app experience that fails to meet both user and business goals

The existing donor app has low usage and the people who have used it, often stumble through the primary flow and fail for submit a donation. Users who do manage to submit a donation often have no idea as to what follows.

THE GOAL

A smarter experience with a focus on the needs

A redesign of the existing donor app to create an easy and guided donation experience that will keep users informed and up to date.

DEFINING THE USER

Userbase

To get a better idea of all potential users, I identified common traits that they would all likely possess.

COMMON TRAITS
  • Older age group (35s - 65s)

  • Lower on tech proficiency

  • Very thankful and willing to give more to the nonprofit

  • Often repeat & loyal donors

  • Only need to donate 1 - 3x a year

THE RESEARCH

User interviews & observations

In order to figure out exactly where the existing app was failing, I spoke with our customer success team, watched user sessions via AppSee, spent a day at a local nonprofit, and connected with some users to get insight about the app. The pain points that I discovered are as followed:

Unintuitive

A lack of clear directions often left users unsure as to what their next steps were, find what they were looking for, and where to get the help they need when they needed it.

Lack of Trust

A lack of clear direction paired with a clunky look and feel to the app made users feel distrust and hesitant on providing information

Defining the needs

With the research done and the user understood, I worked to identify all the needs of the user and the business to ensure my redesign will be mindful of those needs.

USER NEEDS
  • Simplified experience

  • Guided donation flow

  • Easy donation management

  • Always informed

  • Find-ability of information

BUSINESS NEEDS
  • Increased donations

  • Increased operational efficiency

IDEATION

How might we...

To get me started in forming solutions, I used a “how might we…” framework centered around the user and business goals.

HOW MIGHT WE...
Create an intuitive donation experience?

A guided experience that brings everything a user is looking for right to them with a focus on simplicity

HOW MIGHT WE...
Create a professional & trustworthy experience?

A professional and cohesive experience free of errors that keeps users informed every step of the way

HOW MIGHT WE...
Drive revenue for the nonprofit?

An intuitive experience that focuses on getting users though the donation flow and a “tipping” feature

THE SOLUTION

An experience that handles all of a user's past, present, and future donation needs

I redesigned the app to have an intuitive experience by keeping the user informed at every step of the donation. A “donation home screen” experience was implemented to allow the user to perform all of their primary needs right from one screen.

SCREEN DESIGN

The donation home

A homescreen pattern was implemented to allow users a single place where they can submit a new donation, manage any existing donations, and view any past donations & tax receipts

A guided donation experience

A smarter and simplified donation flow that gets users through the flow without getting in the way. Users will be able to submit a donation without the need to create an account first.

Help every step of the way

Donation cards visually show status as well as any important information relevant to that stage of the donation.

Additional donation funnel

A monetary donation funnel was added at the end of the donation flow allowing users to make an additional donation to further help the nonprofit and the causes they believe in.
