White paper research
‍From Chaos to Clarity
‍
‍Starting with white paper research, I began to read some articles about the cashback earning system. How could people don’t like the extra benefit without too much effort? In a digital world where money is on the line, building trust and establishing a loyal user base is important.

‍“ The key to winning user confidence lies in ensuring accessibility and transparency of information “

User research
‍Competitive analysis
‍
‍While considering the above strategies, I analysed the 3 most popular Cashback websites. Armed with the powerful tools of Competitive analysis, SWOT, and " Feature & Usability analysis” to find out the potential possibilities in the gap.

Before proposed solution
‍Usability Testing
‍
‍I conducted usability tests on key sections of each website — the login/sign-up page, account dashboard, and navigation bar & menu. This helped identify gaps and assess the pros and cons.

User research
Resolved Issues through
interviews & user reviews (400+)
‍
‍‍After reviewing the customer feedback platform, I noted down the pain points mentioned by users. Each comment provided valuable insights, guiding me toward identifying core solutions to address these concerns.

‍Using the Kano model helps me pinpoint what really impacts customer satisfaction. It's a great tool for figuring out which features and parts of our service customers care about the most, so I can focus on improving those areas first.
