A high-level overview of my design process
The Customer Problem
If a driver’s card is lost, damaged, or stolen, the only option was to call Love’s customer service to transfer the credits, points, and status from their old card to their new one. This is not ideal, as it resulted in lots of waiting, and reading long numbers over the phone.
The Business Problem
Love’s customer service representatives were getting too many of these calls, taking away time they could be helping our drivers in other ways.
Opportunity
How can we save time for the user, while keeping our customer service reps more freely available?
Goal
Implement a feature in the Love’s Connect App that allows our customers to replace their card, and transfer their old credits to their new card.

The Team
In addition to the above, other contributors include QA Analysts, UX Writer, and Customer Service Manager
Research and Testing
Moderated usability testing was conducted at a nearby Love’s location. The goal was to gather feedback on the card replacement prototype.
Card-Replacement-Study-Setting

We put together an InVision prototype for user testing. Here were our main findings:
  • Lack of clarity around whether certain UI elements were interactive or not
  • Validity of old card was not well-communicated
  • Biggest takeaway: The Confirm and Transfer screen was unclear. 8 of the 15 participants attempted to progress past the screen without checking all three boxes
Design Iterations
Below are two versions of the Confirm & Transfer process. They each failed for the following reasons:
  • Too much text
  • Unclear that their old card would no longer be usable
  • Lack of certainty around which card should be selected in step 1
  • The card does not accurately represent the real My Love Rewards card
We simplified the Confirm-and-Transfer process.
All three check boxes must be selected to continue
Ensuring the users knew that they could no longer use their old card was critical.

This was a UX problem we felt we successfully solved.
Confirm And Transfer animation
User receives two instances of visual feedback if button is pressed without checking both boxes

1. The bottom "Confirm and Transfer" button wiggles
2. The "(check both boxes)" at the top turns red
Design Solution
The user follows a simple and linear path to get their new card up and running, keeping them in the loop from start to finish.
