Challenge

To create a web purchase experience with more flexibility and support for users


  • To create a website that can accommodate multiple types of insurances in different markets.
  • Offer more targeted support especially to inexperienced insurance buyers.


Methods Used

To gain better insight into user needs and behviour when purchasing insurance I used the following methods:


  • Qualitative user interviews.
  • Quantitive data analysis.

Key User Insights

Insurance buyers…

  • Inexperienced buyers needed more support in which insurances to choose.
  • The decision-making journey is not a linear journey.

Final Design

Provided enhanced help to find the right insurance


  • Directed users towards contact in the flow.
  • A quiz to help users help themselves.

Final Design

Made it easier and quicker to compare price and insurance details


Removed long flow to get a price - replaced with an inline form.

Final Design

Recommended bundles to help guide customers


Proactively give recommendations that help users choose insurances and reduce cognitive load and decision-making.

 

Next steps

The final part I was involved in was the delivery of the specification to the development team.

In next steps, I would have:

  • Supported implementation of the design.
  • Set success metrics
  • Learned from performance, and continually iterated.
