Overview:

Partyzaa is a mobile-friendly app designed to simplify creating video and poster invitations with a modern, intuitive interface. This redesign focused on improving aesthetics, enhancing template discoverability with the "Instantcreate" feature, and boosting subscription conversions through flexible pricing. As the sole designer, I led user research, revamped the visual identity, and delivered a seamless, user-centric experience.

Problem:

The existing Partyzaa app faced challenges with an outdated design, making it difficult for users to navigate and find suitable templates for their events. Additionally, a significant drop-off occurred from the homepage to the template creation process, with users struggling to locate the right options, leading to incomplete invites and reduced engagement. These issues hindered the app's ability to provide a seamless and satisfying experience, limiting user retention and subscription conversions.

Solution:

1. Modernizing the Interface

The app’s design was revamped to be clean, vibrant, and user-friendly, enhancing navigation and visual appeal to boost engagement and satisfaction.

2. Driving Subscriptions

A pay-per-template option was introduced, allowing one-time users to purchase templates for $0.49, offering a cost-effective alternative to monthly subscriptions and increasing conversions.

3. Simplifying Template Discovery

The "Instacreate" feature streamlines template selection, guiding new users through onboarding and providing existing users with quick access to tailored templates, reducing drop-offs and improving retention.

The task was to redesign the subscription page to increase the conversion rate from 0.5% to 3-5%.

Objective of the task:

When I began designing the subscription page for the app, the primary goal was to address a critical issue: the conversion rate was stagnating at 0.5%, far below the desired target of 3-5%. Through user analytics and feedback, I discovered that users were dropping off at key decision-making points, primarily due to a lack of clarity and engagement with the existing subscription design.

Context and Problem Statement:

Context and Problem Statement:

Through user behavior analysis, I identified key drop-off points caused by unclear value presentation and decision fatigue. I researched successful subscription models, focusing on creating a design that simplifies choices, builds trust, and highlights value. My goal was to deliver a clear, engaging, and conversion-driven experience. Here's how I approached the redesign to achieve these results.

Through user analytics and feedback, I discovered that users were dropping off at key decision-making points, primarily due to a lack of clarity and engagement with the existing subscription design.

Understanding the User:

To tackle this, I delved into user behaviour patterns, analysing where and why users were leaving the subscription flow. I conducted competitor research and studied successful subscription models to identify strategies that resonate with users. My goal was to create a design that not only conveyed value but also simplified the decision-making process, reducing friction and improving user trust.

Setting the Goal:

The task was clear: redesign the subscription page to be visually appealing, easy to understand, and value-driven to boost conversions. I set out to achieve this by focusing on three key areas: improving clarity, building trust, and providing incentives for hesitant users. The ultimate aim was to enhance the user journey and elevate the conversion rate from 0.5% to 3-5%.
