Tailored Experiences

The Portal is a loyalty platform that lives onsite on a merchant’s e-commerce website. It supplements the customer journey from initial discovery through purchase, creating opportunities to educate, reward, and personalize every interaction without disrupting the shopping experience.

Objective & Discovery

How might we redefine the loyalty experience so brands can better understand their customers, deliver personalized engagement, and do so in a way that is scalable and easy to manage.

Julien

Completes low-effort actions. Wants instant gratification. Drops off if things feel slow or confusing.

Clara

Engages with community content. Learns tips, contributes posts, reacts, comments. Values belonging and recognition.

Eloise

The Passive Accumulator

Earns primarily through purchases. Motivated by discounts, cash-back, rewards. Loyalty is tied to value.

Lead With Purpose

A great loyalty program taps into the "why" behind the brand and aligns purpose.

Create Emotional Achievement

Meaningful experiences create real, emotionally driven achievement.

Build a Living Community

A great loyalty program fosters belonging, turning customers into participants.

PROFILE SEQUENCES

Keeping users engaged and motivated throughout the experience is critical, especially given the high risk of drop-off early on. A traditional form-based approach only adds to that risk by introducing unnecessary friction, but it also opens up an opportunity: reframing the experience as something interactive and enjoyable, rather than a chore to get through.

AN EMPHASIS ON FUN

Inspired by Instagram stories, the experience uses full-bleed vertical images and progresses like a story. What if the profile sequence felt less like a survey and more like a social experience? You're not filling out fields, you're creating a personalized identity to belong to a larger community.

goal gradient effect

The psychological tendency for people and animals to increase their effort, speed up behavior, and feel more motivated as they get closer to achieving a goal or a reward.

First proposed by Clark Hull, 1932

HOME EXPERIENCE

By surfacing the most relevant content based on each user's preferences and activity, the experience reduces friction by consolidating key touch-points into one place. This makes discovery, engagement, and action easy, resulting in a unified, streamlined experience overall.
