Streamlining Onboarding:

Boosting Digital Adoption for a German Insurance Company

A leading German insurance company faced low adoption of their digital platform due to lengthy onboarding processes, relying on outdated methods like phone and printed contracts. Our task was to streamline the journey to boost user engagement and reduce costs.

Deliverables

  • Redesign of the onboarding UI/UX
  • Optimization of sub-processes and key platform functions
  • Establishment of an accessible digital design system

Streamlinig Onboarding

Simplifying User Journeys

The onboarding was interrupted by challenges in user identification, verification, and two-factor authentication. We created wireframes and mock-ups to test the process's complexity, confirmed through digital user testing.

UX Testing

Iterative Prototyping and Feedback Loops

We conducted iterative testing and refining to ensure both security and ease of use. Utilizing a functional prototype, we evaluated user understanding of labels, information retrieval from documents, and process resumption after third-party verification. These insights led to a final prototype approved for development.

Design System

Harmonizing Design Systems and Enhhancing Accessibility

Partnering closely with the client’s dev. team, we transformed their print-based corporate identity into a production-ready, token-based design system. We delivered Figma components with redlines, responsive specs, and a11y baked in (WCAG 2.1 AA): 4.5:1 contrast, visible focus states, keyboard navigation, semantic roles, and 44px touch targets.

  • Icons aria-hidden="true"; label is visible text
  • Contrast: text vs. background ≥ 4.5:1
